StarFire Mod v-Beta 2

If you had to settle on something, maybe a limited ability to cure plagues, or maybe a facility (expensive one that prevents plagues).

Again, I have never played starfury now would I know where to get the books.

Also: I keep getting errors when using fighter weapons and pd in combat.

Fighter weapons and point defense in combat? I will look into that but can you give me a little more info?

StarFire� just go into any bookstore and ask for help to find books by David Weber. He also writes the Honor Herrington Series. You are looking for: Crusade, In Death Ground, Shiva Option, and Insurrection. Those are the only four written so far. I personally recommend Crusade out of the four.

To pick up the rule books than you should email me so that I can keep you from getting confused between StarFire 3rd Edition, what this Mod uses, and Galactic StarFire.

Ok, the website is now updated and working great. I have some business tomorrow but I will start back to work on the Mod this week, I should have a patch out by Thursday before I leave town.

Dan K: How are you doing with that project? Do you think you will be done so that I can include it in the next patch?

Click over to the SE4G page and you will see the patches when they come out. Click once more for the StarFire Mod page and you can see the progress and any future plans. Click over to the Downloads page and you can get the base build 2 of the Mod. Enjoy!

Shaped Charge 1: The mount decreases the range of drone warheads to 0 (or -9).

Engine Governor: There is no difference between engine governor I and II. The second Version only costs more, but doesn't provide a better protection.

Engine Tuners: These things are powerful! They increase the speed of a monitor from 2 to 7

Oh, and the engine tuner 2 provides 2 bonus movement points, engine tuner 3 4 movements points. I don't know whether that is deliberate or not.

Btw, has anybody gotten the sprint xo missiles to work correctly yet??

Actually, a big fan of weber, that is why I have been interested in finding out about starfire for some time. I am currently reading the shiva option and am about halfway through the honor series.

I would be interested in learning more about starfire 3rd ed. but I haven't been able to find in on shelves anywhere and the starfire sites ordering section is a little confusing.

As for the bugs I was talking about, I will reproduce them tonight and post the info.

Never mind on the combat error, I have found the issue, it was with my imagemod download.

Found a minor bug though: You know you can add multiple fuel pods to fighers? This produce some ludicrously fast fighters.

Ahh ... the wonders of the internet ...
I've been out of town on business and needed a Starfire fix and was able to get to the Forum and from there to your new web page ...

Went to the "Downloads Page" ... figured I could get some "testing" in during my "spare" time ... but find that the links on the page (not Navication) do not seem to work ... specifically the "Space Empires 4 Gold Downloads" link ...

Am I doing something wrong ???
Are the downloads actually somewhere else ???
Or is this a possible "glich" in you new web site?
