The P&N-ism physics mod for the stock campaigns is there.
P&N-ism makes Very significant changes:
- lifesupport requirements are directly based on crew capacity.
- slowish repairs based on amount of crew.
- Shields are relatively weak, but regenerate.
- Armor is quite tough and disposable; it is actually cheaper to scrap the old plates and buy new ones than to repair them.
- A wide variety of weapons. Trade off damage rate for tonnage and energy use.
- Reworked energy system. It is entirely possible to ply the spaceways with no reactors, and recharge massive batteries when you visit spacedocks, but having a tiny reactor to trickle-charge your ship between battles is very handy.
- Big ships are actually scary. You can't win against a battleship with a destroyer... not a chance. You can, however skirmish with one, and distract it long enough to complete a defend mission if you're good at dodging fire.
- And more!

Also posted there is a pair of minimods, including:
- Supersize mod: Ships are teeny, planets and stuff are HUGE.
- Newtonian physics mod: engines provide turning and acceleration only, max speed is almost infinite. If your engines take damage, you will simply coast along until you smash into something or manage to repair them. Be sure to apply the brakes well before you reach your destination

And there is a mirror of the BSG mod too.

For the Starblazer Mod installation instructions, you do not need to place anything in any stock folders. All folders can be replicated under the campaign folder, as illustrated in this post from the other thread:

Suicide Junkie said:
The trick to the mod folder is to make it look *EXACTLY* like the stock/core/root files.

The path to UI goes Starfury\images\UI, so you place your modded UI in Starfury\campaigns\starblazers\images\UI
The same process applies to just about everything.

Star Blazers Mod: The Quest for Iscandar, Campaign 1
The Mod consist of two files:
1. Data:
StarBlazers-Campaign1_v1.3 (6.6MB) (updated 01/7/08)
http://www.shrapnelcommunity.com/thr...?Number=383726

The v1.5 means that the data has been updated.
Trying to fix a possible crash when the component Ypos and Xpos coordinates = 0. The player component may not matter since if your ship is destroyed the game is over, but I changed anyway.

There is also a small change on Campaign1-first mission: I decreased the time for the mission to be completed (from 75 days to 70), giving the player a slightly better chance to complete the mission. (Reason for change: For a first mission it was too difficult.) (Fift update)

2. Music - you find it on the next post.

Do not forget the patch for STARFURY, the latest around is V1.17. That patch also includes a PDF Manual.
