Zippy's SE IV Mod (Note: It's HUGE!!!)

OK, I'll try it after I finish with UM.

Odd that almost everyone on this thread is unrated.

Maybe Zippy should be thanked with a few stars?

I released v1.91 of my mod which fixes a bug where the Temporal race can build bases without any weapons early in the game. If you already downloaded v1.9, then you can download a patch (~22k). Otherwise, you must download the full mod (~700k). Both downloads are available on my home page.

Good to know your still active Zip.

I recently updated my site, and could not find a banner for yours, and was considering sending you an email about getting one from you.

Glad your back.

Atrocities,

I’m embarrassed to admit that I’ve never made a banner before. Here is the result of my first attempt. Now if I can only figure out how to put the darn things on my web page

Static Banner
Animated Banner

I would love to be added to your awesome web page so please let me know if you need more than this.

I finally got to load Zippys mod. I was too worn to the bone to get it started. I'd have to create a bunch of picture-empire folders, I think.

It would be nice if it were compatible with the MOD picker. I wish I had a DIRECTORY-TREE (print screen) from someone who made them work together.

UPGRADES HAPPEN!!!

I'm quite enjoying the Zippy mod so far.

Wardad,

First off, thanks for downloading my mod. I'm not sure why you say, "I'd have to create a bunch of picture-empire folders..." You should be able to unzip the files to your Space Empires IV folder and then start the game. Just make sure that you use the AI’s and/or pre-made Empires that come with the game as explained on my Readme page.

Also, can you tell me more about "the MOD picker?" It sounds like a great idea, but I haven't heard about it before. (Yeah, working on ZippyMod has kept me a little secluded in the SE IV world.)
