Thanks for info. I believe I have most relevant stuff installed, though I would feel more comfortable if I could just delete all and start again with clean installation and up to date versions of mods. I don't have CDs at hand though, so if I have old version of The Forge already installed, I just hope that new version can be installed over it.
What else do I have here...
EzINI
Fleet Pick v2.A
OP Conquest Mode
OP Co-Op Ace Customizer
OP Storyline Mode
Sector Assault Configuration for OP
SFC OP Mod Chooser
ShipEdit EAW
ShipEdit OP
Taldren Model Viewer and Team Starfleet Battles
I believe most of that were packed on one zip or installation file and shortcuts are year old. I don't even know or remember what all of those do or how they are used. Do I need any of those to play The Forge and are updates required?
What faction needs new players? I don't want end up to be lone member of least popular faction and joining to most popular doesn't sound balancing. By the way, can players of same faction trade resources between each other?
