I know this thread is really old, but is this mod dead or alive? And does it work with the latest version of Shadows?

Does anyone have or know where to download "acceptable"(you'd use them yourself),B5 ship images? problem I am running into is I can find oblique views as well as side on views of ships but next to no top down views.

I see this has both Star Trek and Babylon 5 mods together. I'm a big fan of Star Trek, B5, BSG, Star Wars and Stargate.
Has anyone consider making a Mod that include all them together.

Would love to see Battlestar go up against a B5 Shadow or a Goa'uld Pyramid ship or a Asgard O'Neill-class ship warship against the Borg.
better slow down getting to excited about all the possibilities

Can the different mods be merged like in SOTS

Yummie, I've been reading about your fantastic project you and your boyfriend have undertaken.
Is your tool going to allow for races to choose ship model set and load them into the game?

Guess what jsolo15...as soon as DW Universe is released, I will fine tune and release my
"Menagerie" mod I created and are using during DW Universe testing. It has the elements
and characters from 'most' of what you just asked for! So be patient a few more weeks!

Yes it will, It will have to for Us to consider it a complete tool sorry I haven't been reading your tread till now. Love the work you have been doing. Babylon 5 is my favorite show next to doctor who. So seriously making a complete conversion of Babylon 5 for the release for the tool. Which I plan on starting on when I need breaks from programming. But love your work so far. Keep it up....

Merging is reasonably straight forward I do it quite a lot as often I tend to dislike one or more shipsets in some of the larger mod packs.

To give a quick example you need to create a new mod then add to it each part of the mods you are merging, so you want BSG shooting at a Wraith hive, copy the correct ship families for each, the race pictures and troops. Then just copy over all the relevant txt files pertaining to each race. The only file that requires any micromanaging is the bias file as you will need to edit each part of it for every new race you want.

None of the above is very hard or technical but doe to how the modding works it can be very time consuming depending on just how much you are changing.

Thanks EHS, wicked job!

anyone know if possible to replace the Shakturi with Shadows throughout game, in names I mean, I know how to do images...

I tried replacing the Dhayut with Daleks, but game crashes when I change anything other than image files.

Examine Igard's Picard Era mod, he changes several of the text files, it changes resource description texts, Silvermist image and messages, etc.

I don't see the race names in there, but I have already replaced 'vodkol' with 'Romulan Ale'.

Guess what jsolo15...as soon as DW Universe is released, I will fine tune and release my
"Menagerie" mod I created and are using during DW Universe testing. It has the elements
and characters from 'most' of what you just asked for! So be patient a few more weeks!

This will be a fun mod to play with then Ed! May I shamelessly plagiarize your B5 ship models?
