I'm trying to change the Federation ship pictures. I go into Pictures/Races. I have no problem importing ships in from the TMP sets, but I have problems renaming some of the original ships

IE

I change the Nebula to J as a placeholder. I then try to make the Akira a heavy cruiser, but the Nebula appears in its place when I hit enter. I now have 2 Nebulas in the shipset, but no Akira!

How can I avoid this?

Did you exit SE4 and reload it after changing the images?

Might just have solved it, opened minis in paint then saved them there, no image change took place. Yippee.

I have found another incorrectly spelled dialouge:

Message from the Orion Syndicate:
"we have ways of making what we want happen. Work with us, or you will discover first hand what it means to suffor(suffer)."

11-extra

Good point, consider it added.

And thank you all for the typo reports in the speech files. I have never proofed them so now is as good of time as any to get that done.

If you can't get this figured out, let me know what ships you want to use from the TMP set and I will set them up for you.

Hello, I'm new the board and the Game. I recently saw Atrocities advertising this mod on a BoTF board.

After reading through much of the 117+ pages about this MOD I just ordered the game

One thing that I'd like to have cleared up. I notice several websites advertise both the AST Mod which leads me to a download that is AST MOD 1.9.6

Then I also see another Web Page that has a ST MOD 1.5.1

Are these the same mods? The name seems interchangeable in this thread So thats why i'm unsure!

I'm aware (because i read just about the entire thread) off Kwok's defunct ST Mod.

Anyhow, looks great, now I cant wait to get the game!

Atrocities,

Seems to be a slight research bug. The tech area of "Fighters" has (I think) 4 extra levels which gain you absolutely nothing. The first level gets you fighter life support and cockpit. The remaining 4 levels are nothing.

By the way, the is an absolutely GREAT mod. I've played it for about 6 hours today already

Thanks a lot for all the work you've put into it.

The AST Mod is supposed to be closer to Space Empires IV Gold gameplay, while the Star Trek Mod is supposed to be closer to Star Trek(ST:TNG)

No, they are not the same mod. AST mod is more similar to the stock game in technology and stuff like that. Star Trek mod has almost completely redone tech levels and that kind of stuff. Now, I'm no expert, and someone else can probably explain it better, but I think what I've said is accurate!!

EDIT: Welcome to the forum!

Ok, this thread is titled Star Trek Mod V 1.5.1 and was created and is hosted by Atrocities. So did he make both mods? I'm assuming this thread is for the one that plays like Star Trek STNG?

(The Website for ST MOD uses the name William Christopher as the author?)

Which of the two MODS is being discussed primarily on this thread?

ermm, sorry for the annoying new guy questions
