The file did not upload to my ISP right. I have fixed it so you should have no problem now.

Back to work on the next patch, this one should make several large changes once Dan K and I get the weapon range and ship speed hammered out.

Hey, what's going on with this mod?

Re: StarFire Mod v-Beta 2
 

Dan K has created a revised list of weapon ranges and damage at those ranges. It is a conVersion of the StarFire system but since StarFire uses a 60 hex range and SE4G a 20 hex (box) range there are a few discrepancies. Also the ship speeds in combat will need to be re-balanced.

At the same time I am trying to get ready for finals and complete a few essays for my classes so that I don’t lose any points when my final grade is calculated. I apologize for the delay but I am working on it with what little free time I have. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif

Re: StarFire Mod v-Beta 2
 

Cool. Dealing with weapons range and ship speeds if Starfire uses a 60 hex range, and SEIV uses a 20 grid range shouldn't you just be able to divide everything by 3 and get a close approximation?

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Not quite that easy. Starfire uses a bell-curve like accuracy for missiles over distance while beams are linear. And the Starfire uses more of a 50 hex range than 60.

Re: StarFire Mod v-Beta 2
 

When you browse the order page be mindful that there are two Versions of StarFire, both are alive and growing although hey have diverged significantly. This Mod uses the Third Edition StarFire system. The GSF or Elite Version is the newer one and currently I have no plans to make a Mod based on this sytem.

Also ZeroAdunn I tried to check out the website in your sig but when I click the link it asks me to download ‘something’ (I don’t know what) which makes my anti-virus software goes nuts and close the download and the page. Any ideas of what is taken place? I am using McAfee.

Sorry about that, I need to change my sig, my website is gone, that is spaceports that is doing that. I didn't pay my bills Last year so they cancelled my service.
