I haven't done anything yet. Those are the files I took from the Library.

Are going to post the Geckodon ship style on the liabary if you are, you'll have to ask my permission.

I'm sending it all back to you when done. I have no intention of taking credit for someone else's work.

Great Job Ronin, The Lyrans turned out great, way to overcome the shape angle issue. I would have never been able to figure that one out. Keep of the great work.

Now to figure a way to get the Lyrans and Kiniti to hate each other in the game. Stardock should add in a option to allow us to determine how the AI players will see each others like you can with their attitudes to you. But that's just me on my soap box. Again great job can't wait to see what yeah come up with next.

I figured out how to do that using the scenario editor. They will hate each other if you use that scenario in the mod.

Hey AF for the A New Era mod, can you work on the tech trees?

Outstanding devil dog.

Actually never mind. I'll deal with the tech trees.

There is a way to do this *indirectly* straight off default settings when you use a specific pattern of game options. But, it's rather complex.

- Diplomatic relations between races can be defined 'temporarily' on the opponents screen.

- As long as you save a game, leave and return later **WITHOUT** changing the order and locations of the selected opponents, the prefs.ini file has a steady reference of this pattern always ready to deploy.

Say...

Terrans (1) are declared at war with Korx (4), and you always use Drengins to play.

1-2-3-4-5
.6-7-8-9.

No matter who is 2,3,5 and others; the steady slots (1 & 4) will remain At war with each other as long as you don't change any for the opponents and the currently valid prefs.ini file will keep using that status.

What's the A New Era mod?

talk to seth about that. Not mine.

New Trade goods for the mod:

Tribbles
Klingon Blood Wine
Romulan Ale


Any suggestions?

It's a Star Wars mod which I am taking abreak from devloping until saturday.

Well I enjoyed making the Carnivon's and have been playing with them a bit. So I created a few more ships. A Light Cruiser and a couple of Destroyers. Thought I would show them off to you. All three are named after the mythical Norse Wolves. Skoll chased the sun. Hati chased the moon. Moongarm consumed the blood of the fallen. These were the brothers of Fenrir or Fenris. The one that had taken Tyr's hand.

Well as for Trade goods.

1. Dilithium is suppose to be a hot item
2. Orion Slave Girls
3. Holographic Technology

@atlas7d great work all around.

What about detruim, was that the stuff they were mining in the ep. with the rock monster that Bones healed with cement? The stuff that they use for shields.

plasma
anti-matter
ship parts
holo sweats
human scotch

DILITHIUM!

Those Dilithium cracking stages are the dumps, but I understand you can make tons of money at them. Careful of the Babes they through at you though.

Oh - Venus Drug. We need Black markets in this game!

{G} - Pug

you could just mine them so i don't think that would be a good trade good
ohh gold pressed latinum.

but hay you could make that in to a mage event like Dilithium shortage all ship go slower or something like that.

I like that.



too generic.

Really looking for truely unique items. Dilithium and detruim everyone will have. Anyone recall a valuable resouce races were competeing for that had some unusual value?

gold pressed latinum. other then that i have no idea

Tribbles? Love this, it's obviously essential!

For 'other items of interest'... maybe;

- Klingon ritual Swords
- Romulan Cloaking devices
- UFP badges
- Holographic stuff
- StarMaps (Gravimetrics scan)

Doesn't eveyone have latinum though? Anyone remember any special drug or material. Things that would boost morale or make people stronger in combat.

As for Romulan Cloaking Devices only way I found to pull that off is to give them Super Warrior so they can do that surprise FIRST STRIKE on enemies.

I can remember in the animated series, Orginal and in TNG that there were regeneration/ healing drugs.  Or a training that did that as well.  That idea was used at least once in all the Star Trek Series.  There were differnt names used.  Remeber that Bones gave Kirk Tri-ox.  So he could continue to fight Spock in the Kali-fe. Garth of Izar had his special morphing training. That could be someting.  Some sort of Spy ability trade, by the morphing ability or the hire of someone like the Suliban's.  I went through my books last night looking for stuff.  But most of it is like Spikan Flame Gems, Romulan Ale, Klingon Blood Wine, Tribbles,.....there was a creature called a Glomar....was the natural predator of the tribbles to keep them under control.  Klingon's wanted them bad and made pets of them (animated).  I was thinking of the Doctor from Voyager.  Could independent holographic personel be used as a trade good?  Many of the things in Star Trek like Androids, Super Computers and the like.  Can already be simulated in the tech tree.  What about exotic pets or plants for a moral boost?

 

Hehehe...I cheated.  Went to another game I had to get some trade items.

 

1.  Tholian Silk

2.  Orion Spices

3.  Ketracel White

4.  Andorian Fleece
