ok, what about glitches, when running this mod i cant get back to leeds, either juni gets killed while the gothri are nailing the battleship or else once all enemies are dead we just end up sitting there
 
Ok I've installed it and it shows the WC names of ships (epee, ferret etc) but none of the new models, only the original FL ones. Any ideas how to fix this?
 
Most likely you have a corrupted install. Follow the instructions on the website, and be sure to delete your saved games.
 
Ok wasn't a corrupt install it was a rather silly matter of winzip placing .zip at the end of the folder name. my bad :(
Looking good so far now.
 
Hi,
New Cadet here, and am very excited to hear about the new release...is it out
yet? I had heard that there were some glitches with some of the ships....i am
eager and waiting news.....and thanks for the huge and hard work in this

thanks again
 
uh, i still have my problem listed above, could someone address that, or at least let me know where it was addressed already
 
Did you follow Bob's instructions in the 5th post in this thread? He's the only one talking here who'd have any idea how to address your problem.
