Really nice interface.
The Nouveaunians look interesting.

I wasn't getting any sound.

The game would crash after five minutes of play.

I will keep trying to play further, but it looks good so far.

i do some testing at work, so it probably has all the audio set to 0; didn't realize that that would carry over. I haven't added anything music/sound wise, though; just what was needed for the minelayer device.

i'm not sure what's causing the crash, but i get it too. sometimes on the very first star i go to:<. let me know if you figure anything out.

It crashes for me as well. The first time through I was able to visit several planets. The second time it crashed on the first planet I tried to visit.

I did a few things to prevent it from crashing:
1) Changed all letters to lower-case for files and folders.
2) Removed blank lines from between items of the same category in the game.ini file.

After those changes, it stopped crashing and sound came back.

I didn't have a problem with the sound. I just turned it back up because it had been turned all the way down.

just to make sure this gets mentioned-
Nouveaunian and Lost Expedition ships were originally created for Black Sky.

updated to .4. I suddenly noticed that the Nouveaunian mothership didn't pit out fighters like it should have been doing. It's fixed now; ands it will kick your butt. Why did i design something with *8* fighter bays?!.
