VERSION 2.0 RELEASED! Star Trek The Picard Era mod for DW:Universe

[dejagore]

Good to know that You haven't shut down development of STPE Version 2.5. Thanks upfront! Mod is really great. Can't wait for 2.5 update

[Knickers]

How do you:

4. If you wish to play a 'close to canon' immersive game, select 'start a classic game', then make sure to deselect 'Enable Return of the Shakturi story Events' from the last game setup screen.

Where do I find this start a classic game thing?

Wolfsherz Hm, there is a galaxy-class Starship in that screenshot. This is a placeholder i suppose?

Yeah Wolfsherz, thanks to our fearless leader, ehsumrell1, we have a new Federation shipset which should conform to Star Trek, the original series. In the screen shot below, you can see my redesign of a Resupply Ship , the "Exxon Val'OhNoPleaz", deploying at a Gas Giant planet containing a UFP Gas Mining Base. Notice the 5 docking bays with navigation markings on the resupply ship. I trust you will give us a little leeway in imparting some personality to the mod.

Guarding the Gas Mining Base is a fleet containing a Capital Ship, Cruiser and Destroying. These are examples of ehsumrell1's finely crafted shipset.

Again, this teaser brought to you by ravincravin, a member of the trek team.

Hi Ravincravin

Any news on when your team is planning to release your Kirk era mod or have you got it on hold waiting for Distant Worlds 2?

I am planning on releasing Version 1.0 of my Kirk era mod some time in the next few months and over the last year have been hoping you were going to release yours first as it looks like you have done a lot of work on it.

First, even thought i am not much of a trekki, i still enjoy your mod. I started my first game with the tholians in the southwest. But now, I might be stuck. While the borg still are only on their homecolonie, the ferengi have vastly outgrown me.
They have 6,5million tax income(16mio gdp), more than 600.000 military strenght and 110 colonies.
My respective numbers are 1,5m tax, 225.000military strenght and 60 colonies.
I tried to gain some colonies in a war, gained 3, lost 5. They are unwilling to end the war and I dont know what to do about it.
There is no other major power and I cant afford much more ships. All my max pop colonies are taxed at +20 happines.
Did I do something wrong, or are the ferengi just very lucky in this game?

I installed the mod again today and when I try to switch to STPE I get this error: (Basically its saying there are more bias values than races at line 12 in that text file.)

I checked the file and it looks fine?

It loads ok for me. Might be worth checking you haven’t accidentally deleted an apostrophe, since line 12 of that file is a comment line.

[Netzmarder]

does anyone have a working download link for me?

[btd64]

I have the zip file. Send me an email and I'll send it to you....GP

Edit, The link on the first page works. I just tried it....GP

[Airman1991]

So I attempted to download the mod. It says 661 MB on the download page, but when it finishes downloading the zip file says 0 KB, and nothing is in it

EDIT: Tried three times, the third time worked fine. Mod downloaded successfully.

[gazdadude]

has anyone got this working with bacon mod

[fuke]

The download link isn't working for me, looks like it may have been wrongly flagged by mediafire

It gets to about 2-3 MB and then stops, and when you try to go to the link again it says "Permission Denied" and suggests buying the TNG theme music on Amazon.

[rjord2021]

If you are having problems with downloading this via mediafire try using a download program like jdownloader and copy the link in the greenbox in mediafire into jdownloader. Testing for you at moment and so far jdownloader has downloaded 314 MB..

If there is a problem with the link jdownloader will tell you, otherwise it will give you a green tick to let you know the download link is valid.

[rjord2021]

I cancelled the download as it appears to be working..... I tried downloading from mediafire without the downloader and it got up top 50MB.

Looks like an issue on your end.... try restarting your pc and try again.

[rjord2021]

Also check your antivirus is not stopping the download.

[fuke]

Maybe adblock was the problem.. working now thanks!!

[rjord2021]

I think some adblockers disable the mediafire download script/

I've tried downloading from the link in my initial post a number of times and it works fine. All 661mb download. Occasionally though, I have seen where a popup concerning the Star Trek music occurs. Just close and usually on the second or third attempt it downloads. Post back if you have any further problems and cannot download the entire mod,
one of us on the Trek Team will assist.

I just tried to mod a race and change something in the tech tree, but encountered a problem.
While the game can be played, my changes only appear in a custom game, not in the startrek map. There, everything defaults back to the standart startrek mod values.
The readme sayd, that at least the race files could be modded.
Do I have to mod the map file itself? Did anyone succsessfully mod this mod for non custom games?

Hi ehsumrell1! Greetings from Switzerland! I just wanted to say hi as I come back to play DWU again after what seemes like eternity. Could you please share any news on 2.5 release? Assuming you are still working on it, that is. In the meantime I'm going to dive back into the game and wait for Distant Worlds 2 in style - playing your wonderful mod. I can't say thank you enough times for creating this!
