I like this game, and I like the concept of a Star Trek Mod - but not enough to buy $600+ worth of software just to convert shipfiles. I don't have that kind of liquid cash for a part-time hobby.
I have to be honest and say that I just can't put in the kind of time and effort it would take to
really do a mod like this right. I have to maintain myself in RL areas. And I'm beginning to see that the skill level (and required hard/software) is beyond my reach. And without more modding tools, it will take months just to code the background (starsystems, etc).
I'm afraid I'll have to shelve this idea for the time being.
