Status: offline 		Many, many thanks for the Star Trek Mod, Igard. I updated to the Shakturi game just for this MOD!

Important question, please. I have also downloaded but not yet installed the Legacy expansion. Will the Kirk MOD work with this, too?

Live long and prosper.

No, unfortunately I still haven't got round to updating this for legends yet. Kirk era will probably be the next though.

Status: offline 		Thanks for the response, Igard and Data. Absolutely no problem; I just wanted to know. The Legacy extension can remain inactive for the moment. I am happy to play the MOD with the Shakturi expansion until the Legacy-compatible one is ready, either with the Kirk MOD and/or the proposed Picard one. I trust in due course you will let us know when these MODs are Legacy-compatible.

I am a bit of afficionado of Star Trek MODs for space strategy games and I relish trying yours out. :)

Live long and prosper.

I've got it running with Legends, so if there is enough interest, I'll release a beta without characters.

Would anyone want that though?

The alternative for now is to install a seperate version of Distant Worlds Return of the Shakturi (don't install Legends).

Igard, let first say I love your mods...

Now to make you suffer, as many of us have done to the developers, WE WANT IT, WE WANT IT NOW!!!

Also, are you to updating Picard era to include Borg? Once again, beyond the leader many of us wouldn't mind not having any special characters, just want the race and the ships.

Well I for one do want kirk era updated lol. I love the tos era. Plus I'm in the mood for playing in that era as I've been watching all the remastered tos episodes again and reading star trek vanguard books (awesome series by the way).

I actually tried to do a seperate install with just rots. But now only that one launches and when I try to get back into my install with legends i get an error. I'm guessing this game doesn't allow for multiple seperate installs? If thats the case then we need that kirk era updated lol.

I did indeed update that one. It's no longer the TRSE mod, it's now known as The Picard Era.

Demiurge13, as Nedrear says, it should work. I'm not sure what I did, but I've had seperate installs on my system for a while now. Just tested and they're both still working.

I'm enjoying using this quite a lot. :) I would observe, though, that there's a distinct lack of Khan Noonien Singh.

Great idea Igard! Remember that in "Enterprise", Archer had to deal with the "Augments" and the
Botany Bay was referenced in one of the episodes. So in sticking to canon for the 'Kirk era', you
and I would just need to create the Augment faction with Khan as the leader, and add supporting
characters and dialog. Along your previous lines, you could 'touch up' a generic shipset for
them (since they usually STOLE everything anyway, that's their MO). We could do it!

(....I now re-cloak and return to the safety of the Briar patch to await Igard's return hail)

On a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being the start and 10 being completion.

I'd say.....

Zero!

That's the whole Khan faction thing. I've been playing around with the rest of the mod. Not ready yet though, still carrier images missing. Sorry haven't got around to it yet.

Haven't done much recently. I'm kind of waiting for an announcement on the new expansion. I feel like it might be a better use of my time to plan for things to come, rather than make a mod for this version that will be obsolete in a couple of short months.

It is a shame, but it all comes down to the character modding. Just takes too long to build a database of character stats and images to go with them.

Let me know if there are any problems. Remember this is for Return of the Shakturi only. There hasn't been a Legends release for this due to the difficulties in creating character files.

Hey whammo,

Are you running the mod with Legends? The Archer, Kirk and Spock mods are only for Return of the Shakturi at this time. Sorry about that.

You can simply install Return of the Shakturi in a different folder to run these mods.

This worked, thank you! But, as a new player a got all of the add-ons in one bunch. Very hard to play the game now without the improvements of Legends.

Thanks again

I kind of burnt out when I tried to do the same for this mod. The new modding patch that comes after Shadows should make adding characters much easier. Then I'll get this mod updated and then the others.

I'll be back to assist you again Igard after my testing with Shadows is over. Don't despair!
We can then do both a Legends version and a Shadows version.
