I also saw Magnum around here a while ago, and he was working on a components mod...
Don't know what became of it though.

I've put together a Borg variant which includes a Borg technology research tree. Will be issuing an update shortly once I finish my latest play test.....

I'm still here! Just been busy for the past month working extra hours (Phew!). Got a little more spare time now. I'm still working on a "SE4 SFC" mod. I plan to make it pretty different then most other peoples Star Trek modes. For example, I'm going to try to make it pretty close the SFB/SFC game mechanics (at least as close as I can get SE4 to understand it) but it will have some slight differences aswell).

Right now, I'm working on a way to implement "Crusise Missiles" into SE4 that use up "Ammo" instead of Supplies. I plan to make a new unit (or just replace one of the Fighter Units) an basically make it a "Ramming Fighter" that attacks ships. Unfortunetly, I don't think it will work as well as I had planned. I doubt I can make the AI understand to make units like this and from the tests I have implemented, its kinda hard to control the actions of the Cruise Missiles (aka. Ramming Fighters) to attack the particular targets you want. Also, completely revamped the Weapons Mount option. Instead of creating bigger mounts for weapons, it is used now in an abstract form to design "Firing Arcs" for you ships. You ships will still be able to fire 360 degrees, but now their will be penalties for some weapons that have a narrower firing arce the others that have a wider firing arc.

Anyway, just a few things I have been trying to work on in my spare time.

As long as you don't pretend you're working in 3D (as the creators of SFC do), I look forward to it.

No problem. Actually, my mod will most likly based on the mechanics of SFB more then SFC. The only differences that it will have with SFB will be the ship pictures (combination of TOS,TMP, and TNG) and the addition of races from the TV show (Borg, Dominion, Cardassians, Breen, etc.). Now, the only thing to do is find the spare time to get something going for me.

[Atrocities]

I got bored one day so I compiled the following races (Based in part from your great work. Several of the sets still posess the imgages you set them up with. Check out the read-me files.):

Breen (Freespace, Original, other)
Borg (Uses special images that I had)
Cardassian (Uses BOTF, DWP, and others)
Dominion (Uses DWP, others)
Federation STNG (New images Chyaenee, Galaxy, etc.)
Ferengi (Uses BOTF and others)
Klingon (SFC, BOTF, KA, and others)
Romulan (BOTF, and others.)
TOS (BOTF, SFC, SFA, KA, Originals, others)
Species 8472 (B5, Freespace, orginal, others)

I put a lot of work into these races finding new ships, masking, remasking, etc. I am proud of all of them. And, non of them could have been done without your inspiration Warp. Many of the races use images from your site, and without those images, we would not have this many Trek Races. Again, it all because of you.
