Re: Help on AI here
If you mean making the ship models there are several out there. I use DOGA III (shareware) myself, basically a Lego system of bolting parts together. If you have some CAD experience Moray (shareware) plus PovRay (free rendering engine) is decent.
DOGA: http://www.doga.co.jp/english/
Moray: http://www.stmuc.com/moray/
POVRAY: www.downloads.com (it'll re-link, I never can remember the new link). Have to do a search there.

Re: Help on AI here
Lol no no no no. Me not going to try and create ships if thats what u mean! Then again i had my first early night for a while and its catching up on me!
What i'm stuck on is the AI Text Files found in the Pictures\Races\Racename, the RaceName_AI_Design Creation.txt files. Is that how you create ships for the AI or am i just going about this the wrong way!

Re: Help on AI here
yes, design creation file is what you are looking for. It can be tricky though. Take a look on some TDM-mod files before changing anything.

If you have SE4 Gold, it is on your CD, under "extras". Non-Gold TDM can be found somewhere
in download forums.
