Space Empires IV: AI Races/Ship Sets

[Tomokatu]

I've been using SEIV Gold (V1.84) for a couple of years now and just decided that I want to customise my own race. I've downloaded varoius race portraits and ship sets but the ship classes don't match the ones I have in my SEIV. In the Imperial, IFN, IGFH and Kaelon picture sets I noticed the Barge especially.

Which mods do I need to get and implement to upgrade my SEIV to match the new ship classes?

The extra ship classes are from the Neostandard list (link is to the Wiki page). It's not actually a mod, but just a reference list for shipset creators and modders to work from. If a particular shipset doesn't have a separate image for a Neostandard class, it will substitute a second choice from the stock images.

BTW, the most recent version of Space Empires IV Gold is v1.91. There's also a megapatch to convert "classic" or Gold to Strategy First's SEIV Deluxe; the highest version of Deluxe is v1.95.

Aha! (He says hitting forehead with flat palm of hand!) Thank you and bless all your clones.

Just a note for anybody intending to use the IFN shipset.
The ship mini portraits are 32pel x 32pel instead of the required 36 x 36, so if you want to use this shipset, you'll need to edit them up to the right size.
