Recently "Assimilated" SEIV Players

[capnq]

The Gold Version manual has a chapter on modding written by Tampa_Gamer, which was adapted from an on-line article he wrote, but I can't find a link to it at the moment.

My Hypermaze mod adds a new quadrant type; the link in my sig points to the v1.49-compatible Versions.

Does this answer any of your questions. I have a pvt message from you asking the same stuff.

Just post away and people will get back to you...

take care

Mods are replacement data files. They get placed in a subfolder of SE4
SE4 directory with mods installed

Mod folders, such as imagemod, Piratesmod, SJmods, and TDM, in the example above should have the same structure as the plain SE4 directory.

IE: inside "Piratesmod", there will be a "Data" folder, and a "Savegame" folder, and an "empires" folder.

All of the altered datafiles go into "piratesmod\data", and altered empire designs go into "piratesmod\data"

=======================

PS: Are you mainly concerned with installing and playing mods, or are you interested in creating one?

altered empire designs go into "piratesmod\data"

That's a typo.

.emp files would go in piratesmod/empires

Unusual Data...I'm glad to see you took my advice...see how helpful our community is?!

In regards to your e-mail, the TNG Mod has no specific date of release but hopefully sooner than later. It's not so much in just the data changes but also playtesting and graphics.

If you're a UNIX geek, the "\" is a typo, even in Windows. ;-)
