wow - read all 53 pages of this thing - damn boys, you have done one hell of a good thing with the little bitty starting idea way back in '01.

SJ you are a genius.

now, i've gotten back into the game, bought SE4 Gold and installed the latest P&N mod but I haven't played it yet.

so my question is what do I need to do to play P&N?

there are numerous references to other files/tweeks that I'm not sure are in the newest (3.1b per spaceempires.net) mod such as dataupdate.zip, a shipset designed by Trooper (very nice looking btw) and a SJ Industry Patch among other things. Do I need to install any of these to play the P&N mod or is it ready to go out of the box so to speak in 3.1b?

also, do I need to do anything to get the TDM races to work in this mod or can I just copy/paste them into the P&N Mod Directory?

again, thanks to SJ(1st and foremost) and all the others who made that little idea way back when into what seems a great mod.

I'm gonna try it out tonite (assuming I can get it to work)
