Status: offline 		Hmm. So, the sale is over, but there appears to be a new promotion for Distant Worlds. The Matrix Games store shows the download versions of the game as follows:

* Distant Worlds 13% off at $34.99 USD
* Distant Worlds: Return Of The Shakturi 20% off at $19.99 USD
* Distant Worlds: Legends 20% off at $19.99 USD

Total $79.97 USD.

Is this the new permanent price? If not, what's the promotion? When does it end? Just curious.

All thats needed is a 4 maybe 8 players multiplayer option with save feature and its sure to be bought a few more times.

On a new version, the game creates a new save folder. You can always copy your old save across and see what happens.

Install the Star Trek mod again?


I did that, and I also realized that the theme option in the opening menu was set back to the default after patching. So I re-installed the mod, chose the mod at the theme menu, and all is fine. I'm good to go, thanks.

Distant Worlds base install
Shakturi base install
Legends base install
Legends patch

Right?
