sweet cant wait for da version
thanx

Damnit im trying to mod my game myself to a star trek like looking but not very successful iam^^. I want my DA version mod!!!.....please  

I even tried to downgrade my game to DL but no way ...   

However good to see u guys are still working on this mod. im checking this forum everyday and feel like at christmas when ure spying the tree if the presents are already placed^^.

Question: Is it absolutely unplayable with 1.5 or are there only some bugs to watch out ? I mean can i maybe play it with the galciv II DL 1.5 but not with DA 1.5 or what is the problem?

btw what can we do for you people to honor your great work?

I just tested it and yes it works but very buggy... maybe its cause of some files were not extractable... will download again till it works next days. but what i can say so far is that i love this mod it just need to work as intendend and im happy^^.

bugs cause of missing/corrupted files(download error maybe) :
- ship textures disapear after combining
- blank tech tree parts
- blank ship components(all)
- sometimes the game crash
- no new ships after research - ships need to be constructed even transporters and freighters...

what i would love to see are even starbases which fit to star trek cause the galciv design of them is boring and looks cheap.
also the behaviour of (f.e. species 8472) is not authentic. they cant trade and would never communicate or even form alliance with other races.
but these are maybe issues for the future - the mod is very star trek near and when it works completly its fine for me. i dont think anyone could do it better than u guys did... thanks alot.

Picard55 - which version did you download to have it work with DA?

which version number?

The latest version did not work for me with DA. The ship sets didn't match each race properly in the setup screen, and at the screen where you choose your opponents, only some of the default DA races were listed (not the trek races).

I unzipped the latest version zip and then copied the folder into the DA Mods folder. Perhaps I did something wrong? It was a great mod and I hope they get it working with DA. At the very least, I'd like to use the Trek style ships as a ship pack(s).

We have the mod working in DA now fully, with Trek style weapons and all, ships match, we'll release soon.

Have a good program to compress it?

We are going to release it in the following formats:

WinZip Whole
WinRar Whole
WinZip - Split up into pieces
WinRar - Split up into pieces

If you have a program that will really compress it well and extract easily that would be nice.

I have 7 zip, WinZip, and WinRar.

7 zip compresses pretty good try it. It will let you choose compression level too. I could send it to you. No error on your part. WinZip, WinRar just compress an ok amount then dont compress anymore.

Renfl or anyone else who knows....so what is the ETA on the release date for the DA version?

I downloaded it corrupt ran it through V-Com zipfix and somehow got the game to work with minor issues.

My message is mostly for a thank yoiu to the developers, Galciv is an excellent game and now you've made it even better, fantastic job its a trekkies dream come true.

(However I am a B5 nut)
duf

So if we didn't have the DL version, will the DA version be useable on both DA and DL, or will it only work with DA?
