Default Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion

If AT did not add anything new to the SystemTypes.txt file when copying it from FQM, a better solution would be:
1) download FQM Standard
2) find the FQM Standard\Data folder
3) copy the SystemTypes.txt file from this folder
4) find the Star Trek Mod\Data folder
5) paste the copied SystemTypes.txt file from FQM into the Star Trek Mod\Data folder

This should be the same systems file, except that all systems with non-stock system images are modified to simply use stock system images (no extra nebulae, novae, black holes, etc.).

Note that this is better because FQM Standard is around 1 MB, instead of around 30 MBs for the FQM Deluxe file that you would need to get the missing system images from.

Of course, this does not help games in progress, onlt new games. CUrrent games can be easily fixed without any downloading. Just copy one of the stock Black Hole images, renaming it to the name of the missing image.
