Right, was worth a shot. So what was the PM about? Running out of ideas for the other 150 sectors?

I had nothing to do with the naming of the sectors. They are all SF's fault.

We're coming up with new ideas faster than we can get the work done. I think it will be worth the wait.

I'm sure it will be done before the 1.4 patch comes out.

Today I came up with the idea that I should rewrite all my scripts into text files for easier translation. Fun fun, any German volunteers?

I'm not German and although I did it at schooll

wasn't too hot at it. But I would suggest you put it in a text file as you say then visit Yahoo and let it translate it all in one go for you.

It keeps the formatting and lines and stuff too.

I use it for work when sending stuff to our German / French offices and they say the translations are usually OK

Update: Burianek has agreed to write a custom economy mod just for this mod(which still needs a name, how about patch 1.4

)

Wow, sounds great. Just what the game needed to keep me playing for another 3 months.

Will there be a version available that has only the new universe, for people like me who don't want different gameplay?

Yes, the (two) 200+ sector maps will be available separately, however, you'll want at least part of the mod in addition, that will be explained in the readme. For example: 44xxxx file and init. is a must.

Give me a better idea on what your mod is about and I'll give you a list of names to choose from.

Bloody fine work you two have an infinite amount of these (

KnightLight · Post by **KnightLight** » Sat, 27. Mar 04, 08:25

Hrm... I like the sound of this. I like the sound of this a lot. Maybe I should forget about my own feeble attempts at modding the game and just play the hell out of this mod...

Witchy · Post by **Witchy** » Sat, 27. Mar 04, 09:58

I just want to wave my hand in a show of support for what you are attempting to do. If Egosoft aren't capable of taking the X-BTF universe forward then even more praise for the modders who can.

Ahem... if you guys are having problems with naming, I suggest checking this out.
