AUTHOR / CONTRIBUTORS
Lord_Vader - design, alien races, basically everything except where noted

Ace_Garp - original music for the mod

ScreamerSimon - the spaceships he uploaded onto the Shrapnel Games forum have been converted, with little change, into new ships for the already existing Weird Worlds races

Clomaka - the blue color scheme used for the mod

Exaar - the graphics for the Muktian Dreadnaught

captainbenson - his Star Destroyer was heavily modified into the Aspian Devastator

Various other mods - many of the weapons. Note that most of these are unavailable to the player.

The Mod Making Guide to the Galaxy really helped, as did the guys on the Shrapnel Games and Infinite Space Federation forums.

And of course, many thanks to the guys who actually made Weird Worlds in the first place; it's an excellent game.

BUGS
There's a certain event somewhere which randomly crashes to desktop when you arrive at a planet.

This is Version 0.5. I haven't had too much time to clean it up fully. Thus, there may be other bugs as well.

Enjoy the mod, and may your adventures be particularly and satisfactorily peculiar!
