Figures, just after praising WinRar, I found out that it will not chop up this mod so that I can have floppy-sized files. Actually, this is the second time this morning this has happened to me. I never had any troubles with winrar before. Has anyone else had this problem?

I work for the state of Florida, and probably only Jeb Bush and other head honchos get the good stuff. I just have to deal with what I have to work on.

You should get a USB flash drive. You can get a 64 MB one for 20-30 dollars. Just plug it into any computer with a USB port, and away you go! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Why can you build the death star prototype in this mod? Wasn't it only used to test the idea of the super laser?

Because this is a mod, not a scenario. It is designed for general play within the Star Wars universe, and not every universe has to act identically to the movies. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Well the DS prototype was nothing more than a hollow skeleton. I could understand it's purpose being there if it was a prerequisite to building the real thing, but I don't see any reason to have it in as its own combat ship.

I wish I could do stuff like that, but I got to follow state policy. Heck, my boss frowns on me doing anything unofficial on the computer as it is, but allows me to do so.
