Re: The Star Trek Mod - Final Update
 

It took me 4 minutes to make the fixes. I'll e-mail the two files to you.

Re: The Star Trek Mod - Final Update
 

It was my request.
I asked for this because it was too easy to add unmounted warp core to design. I did it a couple of times (inspite of description saying "use mount!") http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/rolleyes.gif Stupid me.
I thought that it could be a source of troubles for newbie players as well.

Re: The Star Trek Mod - Final Update
 

One small thing Atrocities. I'd meant to mention this long ago, but never did. I'm not a beta tester for the latest Version, so you may have already fixed this....but here it is anyways.

I noticed that couple of hundred turns into my game, none of the AI races would use ships over about 500kT in size. I of course was using ships way way bigger. They never did use larger ships, and so it was actually quite easy to defeat them once I had the larger ships. I know that they've researched the larger ships, because their minesweeper class ships use their largest ship sizes. I presume this might be a problem with their ship design txt files.

Hope this helps you out a little bit, sorry if this has already been addressed.

Thanks for all the hard work that's going into making this mod even better than it already is http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: The Star Trek Mod - Final Update
 

Definitly a error with the design creation, most probably the big hulls are not at the top of the file (just a guess)

Re: The Star Trek Mod - Final Update
 

Ok. I see what you mean, it would usually cause an warning about size and then the player would realize "oh crap!, forgot to use the mount...". That's not a bad idea, Atrocities just needs to make sure that if he does it for a thousand to just adjust all other components accordingly. He could keep the current values and just make nacelles 500kT and adjust the structures to match the sizes.

Re: The Star Trek Mod - Final Update
 

Sorry if this is fixed already (I'm playing a STM 1.72 PBW game) but I noticed a few problems with weapons:

-Ferengi (and perhaps other) racial weapons can't be mounted on bases.
-Base mounts say they increase damage by 3, 5, whatever times, but in fact they don't - I understand the desire to balance the mounts out but I think it should be documented that the large mount actually does more damage than the heavy mount!
-Ferengi Pulse Weapons keeps on going past tech level 3, even though I haven't seen any weapons that use such technology yet...

Oh yeah, and only 2 levels of Captains? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Keep up the great work! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: The Star Trek Mod - Final Update
 

Because people were adding them without the mounts @ 100kt.

Re: The Star Trek Mod - Final Update
 

Havent been really able to play that much, but is it suppose to be missing half the weapons or did I screw up installing it. Also is it suppose to have a couple place holders-in components.

Re: The Star Trek Mod - Final Update
 

The weapons systems has been changed. You must now research to gain access to weapons. The next Version will have a middle starting tech that will give access to race weapons.

As for place holders, I want opinions on them. Should I leave them in or take them out. I put them there to help new players gain an understanding of the weapons in each catagory.

Thanks for the post Colonel. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: The Star Trek Mod - Final Update
 

I should post that I am playing the latest Version, 1.8.5 and am having a bLast so far. I have not had this much fun playing the STM since Kwok and UserX and I played a turn fest.

I will get back to updating the ship sets tomorrow I think. I will also have a new beta patch, data files only, tomorrow.

Right now I am rebuilding an old Compaq PC and so far so good as it seems to be working well.

Say do any of you know a good place to get a free firewall program like zone alarm but better? Also a free anti virus program?

Thanks.
