USY's Rating System Explained

Actually, I think that 2001 shipset sucks for playability in an actual game of SE4. Most of the ships look nearly identical to each other and I can't imagine being able to distinguish between them very well in the course of play. I know this is because there just weren't that many different ships in 2001 the movie but still, it's a badly designed shipset in my book. I'm picky, though.

I thought of H.A.L. when I saw it too but I figured he'd want something a bit better than that. I could be wrong.

I'm sorry to say that the Ri'Chex fleet you can see at US won't ever be able for download.

Due to a computer crash, and some sort of problem all the 3D model files were lost, and no mini's were ever created. This means that there is no chance of that fleet being created, the only option being the creator making a totaly new shipset -

I'm not keen on the Star Wars and 2001 shipsets. I don't like 'compiled' shipsets, some look tacky and mismatched.

I like all the others though. . .

Boy, now *that* is a cryin' shame. That was one sweet looking shipset. I hope the author does another one of similar style or can find his backup files for the set somewhere. That really has to hurt after spending all those hours working on the ship models.

Excuse me, I'm going to go backup my shipset's MDL files now.
