VERY IMPORTANT, please read!

Guys,

When we have to do another production run of SE:IV we would like to include all sorts of goodies that you guys have made. What I need from folks (in this thread) is one post per essential mod. In that post give me a link, some basic info, and the modders email so I can contact them. Also if there are any essential programs that folks were working on (like the Mod Manager and the Mod Maker) please include those as well. Basically I am looking for anything an upcoming SE:IV fan has GOT to have.

Thanks guys. Please keep discussion to another thread so I can keep this one clear.

[Atrocities]

I wish I had something to post here, but alas, all my work is a combination of other peoples work. Granted, I did do a wonderful job of compiling all the ships into useable sets and all, but still, tis not my own work.

Anywho, if you want to add my link to the next release, please feel free.

I can offer my part of the TDM-Modpack. 2 of the 3 races are actually Babylon5-Races, but the AI script files could be moved to another race. The Torons are a genuine race witn no copyright problems.

and http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/ubbup...k_180_2of2.zip

Actually, I'm just re-working some of my AI files

I also would like to suggest the fixed game fonts by Andrés Lescano.

P.S.: I think I can speak for all of the TDM-Modders when I say that all we modders would love to make our AIs available for all SE4 fans.

[Master Belisarius]

I did the AI's for the Aquilaeian Empire and the Pyrochette Empire, included into the TDM-Modpack (see the previous post).

Both race shipset are original (the Aquilaiean done by Zarix, and the Pyrochette by Grand Mausic Yith Saulkar), except the race portraits (extracted from Accolade's Star Control 2). But if exist some copyright problems, the portraits could be replaced for the original portraits.

Tampa_Gamer Sound Mod

This sound mod replaces all of the original sounds as well as add some new ones by modifying the Components.txt file to offer more unique sounds for several weapons. Some of the racial-specific weapon sounds (like the acid globule, enveloping acid, etc.) are from the mod posted by Tenryu and were created by C. Schaefer for Cyber Warrior and used with the permission of CyberWarrior, Inc.

One suggestion, once you put together the "must have pack" could you put it on the website as a single download with a simple install.
