Does anyone know what type graphic used in SEV?

Specifically the planet and star graphic files, will they be compatable with SEIV? Or will I need to start over in modding all of them? And the alien portraits and ship portraits? Same question.....

Re: SE5, Tell Aaron what\'s on your Wish List

Here's a quick one

Allow for more than 100 letters in the SectType text file. This allows for better descriptions of the planets and stars.

Thanks

Thats what I thought Imperator Fyron. I'll figure out a workaround. Nice to know SEV will have some math capabilities. Nice for replayability and realism nuts like me.

Wow. I think you\'re, like, the ONLY person....

I too like the micromanagement aspect of this genre of game. I also like the combat part too, as I started my gaming intrest in military wargames in the 70's. The problem with combat (usually) is the...

Re: SE5, Tell Aaron what\'s on your Wish List
