Description := Without Atmosphere, Active Volcanoes Spouting, Nothing Here For You

[Fyron]

Well... whatever floats your boat! It might offer a nice change of pace from all the "normal" planetery descriptions.

Imperator Fyron
Thanks, will do.
Um, "Well... whatever floats your boat",
There are those that would warn you against such an open invatation.
I think I will keep it PG.
Ok, folks, go for it.

[Nodachi]

Here goes. Never claimed to be any good at this!

It is much too hot
This corrosive atmosphere
Maybe this is Hell!

Pretty lightning here
Multi-colored clouds to see
If it weren't so wet.

Earthquakes aplenty
Mountains everywhere you look
On this barren rock.

Could it truely be?
Terraformed eons ago
This is paradise!

Fyron's Quadrant Mod v1.10

New Version!

FyronsQuadrantModv110.zip

Here's the Readme:

Readme.txt

[Fyron]

This is an HTML help file I created to help explain the quadrants in Fyron's Quadrant Mod:

Help.zip

After you download it, extract it to the folder where the mod is installed, and it should go into a Help subfolder. If you installed SEIV Gold to:

C:\Games\Malfador\Space Empires IV Gold\

then the mod should be in:

C:\Games\Malfador\Space Empires IV Gold\FyronsQuadrantModBeta

The help files should extract to:

C:\Games\Malfador\Space Empires IV Gold\FyronsQuadrantModBeta\Help

Open Help.html, and away you go!

Fyron's Quadrant Mod v1.11

New Version! The only difference is that the Help file is included for convenience.

FyronsQuadrantModv111.zip

Here's the Readme:

I know I'm going to kick myself, (or let GrowLTigga do it).
Um, Fryon, how do I use your mod with TDM?

[Fyron]

You can load the mod, create a map, save it, and then load up TDM and load that map to use. There should be no problems at all.

Or, if you want to patch this mod directly into TDM, locate these files in the FyronsQuadrantMod\Data folder:

StellarAbilityTypes.txt
SystemNames.txt (unless you want to use one of your own)
SystemTypes.txt
QuadrantTypes.txt

Backup their equivalents in the Data folder of the TDM Modpack. Then copy them from FyronsQuadrantMod\Data to TDM-Modpack\Data. This can be done with pretty much any mod, btw.

Thanks,
I should have known it was that easy.
