USM

For those who have never used USM, you are truly missing out. I blows me away that there are so many of you who have not discovered the wonders of USM.

Does that mean I can mod myself some personal formations and use them in PBW games ?
I do miss something useable with the neural combat net, something that really hides that special legendary ship

Unfortunately, you can only get Strategies this way. Formations are entirely dependant on the Formations.txt file in the mod, unfortunately.

If you want to play an otherwise stock PBW game, you can just use USM, as the only changes are to formations, strategies, and some eye candy files. It plays exactly like stock otherwise. And, it is a small mod.

Oups,
Seems like I need to learn how to read again; Strategies = Strategies, and Formations = Formations

Pitty though, as the formations are the usefull part of the USM (for me that is, as I always micromanage the strategies anyway)

Well you can still start suggesting that stock PBW games use USM so that the formations can be used...

I use the USm in the two mods I have made. Tis a great mod and a must have for any mod.

It is just a compilation of everyone else's work on these files...

The point is you put them all together into one great mod. Those who do not use it do not realize what it is they are missing. I think most hard core players who care about formations and strategies understand the importance of such things as this mod has to offer.

Don't let the low numbers bug you Fyron, the ones that count are the ones that show poeple using the mod.
