Re: New Weapon Concepts

Similar to the reflective shield, I would add a new computer attack that causes enemies to target ships in their own fleet. It would be fun watching an enemy fleet basically attack itself in...

Re: OT: How old are you ?

My first computer was an Atari 800 in 1981. My neighbor got an Apple II+ around 1980. I spent a lot of time over there playing Lunar Lander and the Adventure text games. I still remember my...

Re: Help with TDM modpak PLS

I got it working after I installed the patch. It apparently didn't work because in the older Version, the TDM directory was nested inside the TDM*_Gold directory, so I got rid of the parent...

Re: Help with TDM modpak PLS

I ran the mod launcher, and TDM is listed on the left. I select it, start SE4, and the original game pops up. When I look in path.txt, I see TDM-ModPack_Gold, so I know the path is being set. ...

Re: Help with TDM modpak PLS

I'm also having trouble with this. Version 1.78, using the mod pack that's on the Gold cd. It's not finding it, whether path.txt is set to TDM-ModPack or TDM-ModPack_Gold. Original game loads...

Re: OT: Movies I Have Seen Lately

I saw Catch Me If You Can Last week. I actually read the book back in the 80's, and thought at the time, "This would make a great movie". I was really surprised when I heard they made a movie about...

Re: Playing defensively?

I played one game like this and only out of circumstance. I was boxed in early in the game, but had the advantage of having only two ways into my empire, and one of those was next to a black hole. ...

Re: Adding a second Hard Drive to a computer

I have two drives on my computer, both the same speed. I partitioned one, and put the OS in its own separate drive. It works out great, plenty of space for backing up stuff, lots of room for games....

Re: Wanted: AI modder. Apply within.

Jus ta question about modding the AI from someone who doesn't know anything about it. What does it involve? Is it just the AI text files or is there more to it?

Re: Question about intelligence countermeasures

That's too bad. No way to mod it, I assume (didn't look like it from what I saw)? If not, that would be one thing I would like to see added to SEV. Countermeasures should never be 100% effective.

Question about intelligence countermeasures

I searched old threads, but don't have a clear answer on this one. In the games I've played, as long as I have countermeasure projects running, all enemy intelligence operations fail, and whenever I...

Re: Empire disposition toward you during war

Haven't checked this thread in awhile. Having played my Last game where I've been the MEE for better than half the game, it's become obvious that once I reach that status, there is no no way the AI...

Re: Empire disposition toward you during war

I just wanted to get their trade back so I could build up more. It doesn't matter now in my current game, as I am now the "evil empire", and everyone has declared war on me! ...

Empire disposition toward you during war

Several times I've encountered the situation where an empire at war with me had developed the disposition of "Brotherly", but no matter what I did, they would reject my request to end the war. Are...

Colonizing moons

I think I'm just about past all the newbie questions, but I have to ask. Is the only way to colonize moons to go into the colonies menu and do it from there? If I try to colonize through a ship...

Re: Finished my first game
