totally ot but what the hell, cshank2? you from 'sconsin? If so where? my dad's from there and i've been back at least once but usually 2x a year. Nice place.

on topic though, maybe you could make these dwarf things have insanely high min/org/rad Ratings in a special limited resource game to simulate their density ???

I don't know how many of you remember my first quadrant mod with additional systems (had 1-12 planets in them) and new nebula graphics. Well, I'm working on a new Version of it - much bigger and complete in both graphics and text department....
Yes, I remember it. IMHO, it is even better than Fyron' quadrant mod. Pitty it is pre-Gold so I am really looking forward to your new mod !
Why is it better than FQM?

Daynarr, we could work together to make an even better mod.

It has such nice pictures. I was watching in awe when my ships sail across Pegasus Nebula. "Seat of Ancients" star system was another interesting feature.

BTW Fyron, is it possible to cross your mod and Proportions ?

yea, I played (briefly) in one of Fyron's games that was on porportions with FQM. I am incorporating a modified Version of FQM into GritTech, too.

Seat of Ancients is somewhat represented in the FQM as well.

does the old download section have a link to Daynarr's original mod? or can anyone upload it there? I no longer have it, and would like to look through it again.

Yes, it's entirely possible, but the high number of asteroids means that you will quickly (~100 turns) have remote mining projects that will outproduce your homeworld by four or five times.

edit: that is until you took it away.
A little animated red eye-light on that cylon would look reaaly cool.

his signature had an animation of a fighter walking towards you. unfortunately he removed it. i agree his avatar would look nice with the animated eye, and sound fx.

4 or 5 times? Hah! Try 900k mins, and about 450k orgs and 450k rads from RM! Combining FQM and Proportions should be accompanied by greatly lowering the value of asteroids.

FQM Deluxe includes a lot of NASA pics of real nebulae.

Puke:
Umm... assuming you give credit, I don't mind FQM being incorporated into the grit tech mod. Just get it done sometime soon!

right, pre release should be out FRIDAY! at various times, i have asked all kinds of people to use parts of their mods, and ideas that have come up on the forum in various mods or things i have been working on, and I thought the quadrant mod was one of them. I always credit where i pulled things from, and i am very sorry if i had not asked about FQM. for the reccord, I am also stealing parts of porportions, and several ideas that first cropped up in Devnull and P&N. these will all be mentioned in the modinfo text / readme.

It's not stealing if you give credit.

You may have asked at one point, and I forgot. I don't know.
