Totally agree with you, it's another episode that I personally dislike... I ended up rooting for Captain Ramsom (John Savage played his part brilliantly by the way). It is really strange that the writers should choose this kind of behavior for Janeway, it didn't help her character in any way, quite the opposite really.

Great News!

I liked it so far. It has some interesting features like the presence of the main characters, though I think they are there more to add flavor than to actually change the gameplay in any important way... it is nice though. Some things need to be adressed, like the design of the ships - they not only start with just the bare basics installed but the positioning of the itens is off (the weapons, engines and other itens are just placed anywhere inside the ships). It is more anoying than anything else, but I believe it might impact the gameplay since the ships designed for the race I played for awhile (The Empire) aren't very effective in battle - I can solve this by designing better ships, but if the other races have the same problems with their designs the game would be too easy... and if they are so well equiped as the pirates then it will be too difficult... it is just a matter of ballancing things a bit.
Another thing I noticed and that I thought was strange was the automatic birth control in all the planets where the engine was managing the development. In Coruscant it was needed since the planet was overpopulated, but the other ones had only a few colonists and couldn't grow - it took me awhile to notice that and then I had to figure out that I could change it by micromanaging the colonies...
But I think it has the potential to become a very nice mod. You put a lot of work into it and I will definitely keep on playing the next updates!

Actually it is in the first part of the Empire's race description, when you're explaining how Palpatine created the Empire... it goes like this:

...reorganized the Galactic Republic into the "First Galactic Empire" on the Galactic capital, Coruscant.about Humans, claiming the only thing they can do without filling out the right paperwork first is...

It is just like that, after Coruscant the text goes on with that part of the original human description, talking about Humans as the galaxy's burocrats.

All that is needed is to allow the beta updates - the last one needs to be installed before the mod works. Go to the game's properties in steam - then Betas and accept open betas.

By the way, the Empire's description both in the Birth of the Rebelion and in the Galactic Civil War has a part of the original Human description in the end... you might want to take a look at that.

I tried and my steam version didn't work also... aparently we need more Force to make it work under steam power.

Should I block the game to update itself from now on? I suspect the steam auto update will probably break the mod...

I have the steam version too... didn't try it yet but now I am worried. Will I be able to restore the game to its original form just by backing the files to be removed and then restoring them later?

Actually I think I will wait for the campaign mode. It is really a pity it has been delayed... but please don't cancel it, I am sure I am not the only one waiting for it to be released in all its glory.

It's alive!!!

Definitely out of the blue... thanks for the update, it's great to know this mod is not dead, you made my day logan23!

Absolutely great! Wouldn't be bad to have the Eclipse, but the Sovereign and the Executor class will sufice...

There is just one minor thing:

*comprise various the splinter factions*

Sorry to point that out... it was the Sheldon in me that forced me to do it!

Great job, I can't wait to play this one!

It was when trying to launch with the shortcut. It oppened the Medieval menu and, when I clicked the EBII option a message appeared... I don't remmember the contente properly, but it was about failling load something, I think...

But I will see the links you posted Wulfburk, thank you!

Tried to install but got a message of error... mine is the old retail version, not the Steam one... I choose the proper path for the installation, but it didn't work... am I doing something wrong or is it really a steam-only version?

Great News!!!! The Mod to end all Mods!!!

It's great to know the mod is nearing the release date... just one thing: looking at the screenshots I can't see Lucia anywhere, won't she be a part of the Necropolis exploration?

One of the things I notice looking at the screenshot showing Lucia at the brothel is that it appears her whole stay is described in the text... that is not necessarily bad, but it would be more entertaining to have some quests that might deal with her learning of the new skills needed to work there. Since this is an adult mod and she is working in a brothel, the "learning to enjoy sex" and "finding ways to please your clients" could be turned into mini-quests, using Lucia's choices as a starting point as Valine has done in A Dance with Rogues.
