Guess you going to have to learn how to mod for you can make personalize version of DS for yourself.

Sure, find Harpos txt-bin converter. Then edit what ever you want!

In theory its a great idea, we thought about it for 2 mins one time. But here is why we wont do it.

-Logistical nightmare. Given the recent problem many have getting the current mini mods in the right order with the right checksum. Having the full mod like this gives us nightmares. Not to mention playing MP. With several way to do the mod and everyone will surely have their own way of ordering the mod....checksums wont match...people get mad.....then they yell at us...like it was our fault.

-The sheer ammount of work. To rip the mod apart and gut it would be a serious mod job itself. Your bribe of +1 karma doesnt even pay to fire up the mod rippiing machine for 5 mins. Its rather expensive.

But your welcome to make your own personal version. Just as long as you dont distribute it publicly without the DS team permission.

I think i might have been misunderstood.

Well i believe that an efficient way modders mod/edit their progs would be to have different folders for different things, then they create each section (planets, research, etc)

Then junk em all in the whole mod folder and sell it as a mod, the whole thing will run like butter on a butter knive.

Im just requesting that Distant Stars make all those uncombined folders avaliable to the public for them to personalize their own mods.

For me, i currently have three folders in my mod folder.

1 - Distant Stars mod 0.5 (untouched)

2 - Broken down DS mod (all files converted to text)

3 - Custom Distant (I just drag and drop whatever i want to convert here).

If you just look at it, in MP, ill just uncheck my custom mods and load the DS 0.5 and play normally.

Only reason why im posting here is that i want to personalize my own mod for single play. Cos i seriously loved somethings about the vanilla game that the DS team changed.
