Ok, so suppose I wanted to use the latest version of the Federation mod. The new versions of the ships in this mod all have systems, and they make a HUGE difference.
Federation ships in Minimash are basically cannon fodder. Compared to some of the..bigger..ships in this mod, all the Fed ships are garbage. However, in the newest version, they get ship systems that make all the difference in the world, making some of their ships extremely powerful.
Well, there doesn't seem to be a folder that I can just delete to remove the federation ships in Minimash. I'd have to remove every ship individually, then delete the references to them in certain other files.
And even then it would take hours and I'd probably make mistakes that would make the game unstable.
What is great about these modpacks is that one person does all the work so all the rest of us can just play the game. When the work hasn't be done like in this case, it defeats the whole purpose.
I think I'll have to wait for Corvus and then add mods from there. It doesn't really matter if I don't get certain ships : ships without systems are mostly cannon fodder, anyway. You just can't make up for 50% more DPS or being able to teleport to the perfect position with a super-capital.
