TDM-ModPack patch needed?

[Elmo]

Is one needed now that the Gold patch is out or are we good to go? Thanks.

If you are refering to the TDM pack with all the sci-fi races in it?
One is being worked on. Everyone is shooting for sometime next week.

As for the one that is on the cd. I have no answer for that, but if I rememeber correctly the updates in the patch did not change any of the AI files any, so the current tdm should still work.

The one included on the CD (Version 3.00) should work fine with the 1.67 gold patch. But Dracus is correct, we are in the process of preparing a patch for release (hopefully) next week.

Thanks guys.

Judging from the notes for the patch, it looks like the TDM races should work fine with it, it's just that they won't be setup to use the changes in Construction_Vehicles.txt and that units file.

So get the patch if you want 20000k ships and units and wait for the TDM patch to come out so those races can take advantages of the newer AI scripting features.

Great, but there is one possible problem. The TDM-ModPack contains a Data folder with the .txt files, some of which were changed in the 1.67 patch. If you are using TDM, wouldn't you need to update those files in the mod folder to use the new files?

Also, I hate to be picky, but it looks like most of the changes in these files include misspellings of the word nebula. This is a space game, astral phenomena should at least be spelled/used correctly. The singular form is nebula; the plural is either nebulae or nebulas depending on whether or not you had Latin in high school. "A nebulae" and "nebulaes" are not correct.
