@keptin: I love ISF. In my opinion, this is one of the best-looking and best-balanced Mods for Starfarer to date. Not sure if I've said so lately, but keep up the good work man.

[keptin]

Thanks man

I'm looking forward to adding to it once .53 arrives.

the titan class is awsome but the blue makes it looks...a bit jumbled in color..i dont know where or how to fit it to make it work...just thought id let you know

[keptin]

Thanks Lopunny for providing specific feedback.  The Titan sprite will get a once over in post 0.53 updates

Thanks Lopunny for providing specific feedback.  The Titan sprite will get a once over in post 0.53 updates  

I bet that possible sprite refresh is the least of the could-be changes. Post-0.53, the inclusion of the new fast-loading-missiles ship system is going to make the Interstellar Federation into quite the interstellar bulldozer; grinding and flattening everything in its path.

grinding and flattening everything in its path.

I'm really looking forward to digging into the 0.53 stuff! The goal is to tastefully integrate the new features into IFed--systems should feel like they were always supposed to be there.  I don't want them to seem disruptive.

[NikolaiLev]

I foresee IF ship systems including lots of basic-yet-efficient systems, like Fast Missile Loading, and if possible standardized systems.  I think we'll see a lot of the basic flares and thruster systems, to go in line with IF's relatively low technology level.  I can't imagine seeing things like drones and teleportation systems, I think they'd feel out of place.

I definitely see something like the Albatross getting the enhanced thruster package, for lightning fast strafing runs and things.  It'd also make sense on the Shogun to fit its role of Interdictor.  I wonder what the Dakota would get.

When I download the standalone version, all the folders are empty. 

[keptin]

I just downloaded and tested extracting the .rar using both Winzip and 7zip and everything works properly.

[Cathal]

Could you upload a .zip? I'm on 'nix, so it could have something to do with that.

[keptin]

My god, get unrar.  How have you lived this long without decompressing .rar?  I can upload a .zip tonight if that doesn't work (on phone atm).

[Cathal]

I've lived this long without extracting .rars because most things I have to extract are in .zip, save for the occasional Minecraft texture pack, in which case I was just too damn lazy. I'll grab unrar, though.

Also, since I didn't mention it yet, *** love the mod.

[keptin]

Thanks man    An unofficial p7zip package might be better since it has a GUI.  There are ports for several distros.  Haven't tried either, so let me know if one works for you.

[lordyam]

dont so much dig the colors but teh designs are promising
