OK, great. And by the way thank you, Voidhawk, and Randy Stuce too. I accidentally left you two out of my original posting expressing my heartfelt gratitude.

I must say...darn nice job on the Darlock shipset Voidhawk.

I haven't had a chance to check the rest of the "goodies" out yet, but if past experience is an indication, this is well worth the d/l time

Only if you are the host of the game. But hten again even if you are the host this will cause no program problems (but one of the new races might kick assses of some players

).

I have to add my vote for the Darlok shipset. The red and black contrast is pretty cool and the physical shapes are good. It's not really what I'd consider a "stealthy" race shipset though, precisely because of the red/orange in it. I'm tempted to copy all the Xiati ships over to Darlok and use the Darlok set for the Xiati. They're more visible in the system window.

I LOVE the Darlok ship-set... and I agree with the non-stealth comment.

So, of course, I play the new shipset and gave the Darloks the Xiati

Works for me! lol.

Aw, stop it, you guys are embarrassing me

. Thanks for the props, but just remember they ain't nothing but eye candy without that awesome AI driving them.

Baron, that's the dilemma I had facing me when I made the set. I wanted a dark primary color, but at the same time wanted the ships to be very visible in tac view. I'm like Tampa, I HATE when you can hardly see the ships. Hence the orange. Now, if you want a REALLY stealthy set, I can upload the Darlok ships that I've been playing with just for kicks. I imported the original SE starmap background bitmap into my modeler and "wrapped" the tactical mini's with the starfield texture. Ever see the movie Predator? That's the effect. Kind of like automatic and permanent cloaking. Scary stuff indeed, and not for the easily annoyed.
