Questions on mod merging and ship set adjustments |
Hi everyone, now that I have SOME free time I wanted to start playing again. I had a question afew questions though. The first is about how to go about merging mods. To be more specific, I'm wanting to add the astroid habitat mod with the balance mod. The other thing I was curious about was making changes to some of the great shipsets out there. In specific I want to change some of the ships in the Temporal Integrity Commission ship set to ships from the Federation TNG shipset. Not sure how to do that, I've never messed with the ship sets before.

WinMerge is an invaluable win32 tool for finding all of the differences between two files.

Awesome! I was hoping there was a better way with overlapping files. I think I'll check it out.

Yeah, I'll have to book mark that one myself.

Had trouble downloading but it works now. Thanks again. 




Re: Questions on mod merging and ship set adjustments
On mixing mods, I compare the files in both and if there is any overlap (and there often is in the datafiles) I manually merge them together. I would also suggest using copies of the mods in a seperately named folder so you don't mess up your source files.
