Nitram,
OK, here you go.
This is a zipfile with pathing built-in. Point it at your SE4 directory and unzip. It will create a /Pirate directory, a /Data subdir under that, and sling all the data files in there. It will also add a pirates.emp file to your /Empires directory. It should NOT overwrite any of your existing files.
Obviously, you will need to edit your path.txt file, and change the entry of "None" to "pirate".
The first thing you'll need to do when you start a game is research Pirate Tech, under Applied Science. (I love the idea, just imagine the course names in the degree program, "Looting 101", "Advanced Pillage and Rapine")
Err, umm, if I forgot anything, you can email me at
