The Star Trek Mod - v1.9.7.5 (Oct 07)

[solops]

Are the latest ImageMod files going to be posted as Zip files someplace? All I found are rar files.

I am interested to learn if a particular bug has been fixed. In Qconflict I naturally use the ST intel facilities (1100 pts vs SE4 stock 700). However It annoys me that when I click on upgrade facilities it upgrades the 1100 pt facilities to 800 pt standard ones. I didn't notice this downgrade until some time after it had started.

[Atrocities]

I have checked. The only facility that shares the same family number with intel facility (86) is the pirate one. This is being changed now. However the problem you mentioned was fixed in Version 1.7.3:

38. Changed Intelligence Center I - III family number from 6 to 86 to help stop conflict with GR - Intel (Thanks General Woundwort)

GD IT, how in the hell did this happen? You know what, after I made the patch I shut my computer off for an hour while I went to the store. EVER GD TIME I do this, the frells things up.

There is no reason for this to happen except to say that some how the system screwed up... I honestly don't know what in the hell happend.

I will reload Version 1.9.0.2. Or should I just wait for 1.9.0.3?

[Atrocities]

It looks like the CompEnhancement file was not saved in the update folder that was used for the zip. Like I have said, this has happened before. Its an XP thing that is really beginning to PMO to no end.

Both times it has happened after a shut down - reboot.

Any ways, the fixes in 1.9.0.1 WILL be back in 1.9.0.3.

I guess I will just have to get it done sooner than I had anticipated.

In the mean time, if you want the correct file, I have attached it to this post. Simply replace the exsiting one with this one. NOTE: Do not do this if your playing in a PBW game. You will have to wait until the 1.9.0.3 update.

[Atrocities]

I would like everyones permission that has helped with this mod to add their names to Emperor Names list. So if your interested, Please post or email me with the name you want used.

[Atrocities]

I have been play testing this latest Version for the better part of four hours now and I have to say that I am really happy with how it is working out. Despite the occational illegal design that creeps in and out occationally, the mod plays and feels good.

The new design creation files are working very well. There are some issues, but those are generally caused by ships less than 200kt in size and are very short lived.

Does any one want to beta test this Version for me?

I would like to put it through the ringer for a month before it is released.

At this point I guess the focus, aside from bugs, would be on spelling issues, descriptions, balance issues in resource useage, and balance in abilities for facilities.

Basically we are down to tweaking things.

I also would like input on the Warrior Trait. I would like to get it balanced out and useable as a viable trait to play.

If a player chooses the warrior trait I am thinking on making it 100% neo-standard. If a player chooses this trait they will gain additional ships, in this case neo standard ships.

[XenoTheMorph]

Well Atrocities I would be honoured to be in the Emperor names file if you would like
(Xeno would probably be better than XenoTheMorph don't you think!)

Also could you check that when you replaced the Compenhancements file you readded the Laser mount change

from v1.9.0.3 changes
3. Changed Increased the Range Modifier for Laser Mount from 1 to 2.
21. Replaced CompEnhancement file with correct updates - updates were undone in 1.9.0.2 by mistake. (SORRY)

I'd be willing to do some Beta testing for you, PM or email me with the details (either [email protected] or [email protected]).
