Cool - thx! (Didn't know Winmerge could also be used to compare files for errors...) BTW, the CvSolarSystem "changes" (look like sloppy typos to me) might also be responible for the failure to create a MOO2Civ map/scenario, maybe.

Does anyone have ideas for what Emancipation should do? I removed the unhappiness penalty for other civs because I think it's too unbalancing, but now it does nothing except allow partisans (which don't always occur, for some reason; in fact, none of my tests have had it show up). Incidentially, now all the AI's gravitate toward caste system.

I'm on the final stretch with models now and I've hit a road block. I have to do a model for the Tellarites for an Enterprise era scenario... except there was hardly anything ever shown of a Tellarite ship. This link from Memory Alpha has the few screenshots of the only vessel shown but trying to model a ship based on those just is not possible.
And here is the only other picture I have of it:
As you can see, its a little small... I can use my imagination and create my own from this wee picture, but if anyone has any suggestions, or secret websites with start trek ships that might give me a little insight, it would help.

Are you sure you have it installed correctly? You shouldn't be seeing the BtS main menu graphic.
EDIT: @ Jaydn: did you try www.trekcore.com? They have LOTS of screencaps from the episodes.

I find the vanilla civics in a space mod rather silly. if anything you should replace them with the final frontir ones, just adjusted for the changed unit classes, till you make something more trekki like.

The Final Frontier ones don't really fit. Frankly, aside from the space setting, Star Trek really has more in common with vanilla than Final Frontier. I don't see Technocracy (or however it's spelled) or Green Economy in Star Trek. For the most part the vanilla civics work fairly well, except in cases where the effects have to be changed or where they need to be changed. I did that with Environmentalism; it was replaced by Self-Betterment. And I now plan to rename the religious civics - now that I think about it it's silly to keep them with the same name when religions have been renamed values.
The DL Database file is fine? No need to use the zipfile you posted?
EDIT: Nevermind, I just read your 1st post.

The patch I have posted uses a python trick to avoid the problem as it came out before I figured out the cause. The only effect is that the liberation popups don't work like they do in the epic game.

Maybe Emancipation should allow extra science or trade routes

Would people be willing to go without random events and quests? They are very difficult to implement and Final Frontier seems to be hostile to anything that puts units on the map via python. I only was able to come up with 20 events, 5 of which had to be scrapped because Final Frontier made them impossible to implement.

The Supreme Court has ruled: random events go. Here's my current plans:
-When Jaydn finishes the scenario units, release the art/sound pack
-Release updated art defines and unit art styles so the new units can be seen
-Develop DS9 and Xindi scenarios
-Release beta 3
-Finish scenarios
-Develop cloaking device
-Release version 1.0
Now, some scenario questions:
1. How big should the scenario maps be for DS9 and the Xindi scenario? For DS9 I want to cover the Alpha Quadrant area where most of the show took place, including the Badlands, the DMZ, and a good portion of Cardassian and Federation territory as well as a scrap of Breen territroy. I intend to have require complete kills on. For the Xindi scenario I intend to cover most if not all of the Delphic Expanse that was seen on the show. The map would be like Afterworld; you move from one end to the other overall.
2. How long should they be? I'm thinking of using a weekly calendar for Xindi and a biweekly calendar for DS9. The advantage of the biweekly calendar is that I would be able to put it in the form "Episode X, Season Y". That leaves 26 turns a season, or 182 turns (6 more then show episodes, as season 1 actually had 20 but all others had 26).
Both scenarios will rely on python events and will be difficult to balance properly, which is why I picked these two for beta 3.
