The complete race list (post your new creations/updates here)

That color scheme for the links on the page, well, sucks. The colors do not go well together, and they definitely do not look good with the rest of the colors on the site. I suggest getting rid of the maroon-ish background. Just yellow underlined text for the links sets them off enough from the rest of the text to make them immediately identifiable as links.

Also, the SOTAS preview page has an error in it. The mini pic that should be the Medium Troop is instead displaying the mini pic of the Medium Weapons Platform.

ZeroAdunn : updated your shipsets.
About Kazhari : wrong file names for weaponplatforms, troop pictures have been forgotten.

I would like to have news of these shipsets :
Turian Commonwealth
Galactic Command
Lyosion Empire
Zykonian Armada

Are they really so unworthy that you want them to disappear ?

Did you say "Forchain" ? I also have it, but I find it... a bit ugly. Maybe on SOTAS,if I've nothing better to do...

list order : I think the race folder name is definitively the best sort. It has to be unique indeed (even if some authors did create shipsets with the same dir name). There's only one order displayed, I've got no database to manage that list !

Raging Deadstar : Goald and akah soon available, thanks. Updated United Colours Empire 2 line.

Captain Kwok : not enough time at the moment to update all shipsets AI that are on SOTAS. (If anyone is interested, I will happy to make the change), I'll try to correct new additions anyway.

Ed Kolis : need more info about your borg set (see form on race dir first page).

Oleg : updated Tlaxcalan link and Manticore.

Manticore should deserve a zip with all files (no truncated Versions). Maybe for the future, as it seems to be still under construction ?

Also updated Ixaris.

Fyron : changed the link colors, no maroonish anymore. Now it's a large aggresive blue background

Didn't see the problem with the preview page, you forgot to tell me what race is concerned...

PS : I appreciate your frankness, but why speaking so rudely ?

I hope to put more shipsets on SOTAS soon. If only there were more hours in a day...

The Forchain shipset was the first shipset ever made, iirc it even predates the commercial release of SEIV.
Of course its ugly as hell, but its a piece of SE history.

Oh, it's a sentimental reason... That's different then. I'll make a showcase for this fossil...

Of course, for every shipset published on a site, an authorization has to be asked to the author first(if this one is known...).

Not necessarily. Some readme files might give permission publishing without specifically contacting the author.

And yes, I will be glad to host a few sets- maybe 2 or 3. I don't have a huge amount of space, but it will be good to use it for a worthwhile cause. Email me the necessary zips and I'll make up pages for them.

EDIT: Also, it's not finished yet but you might want to provide a link to my latest set in the race dir.

Always believed that was the Pyrochette...
