This is great, good to hear you are still working on the wiki I'm really enjoying reading about the back stories behind your races. As I said before I've removed all the stock races from my game now and only play with the ones from GRM, with the exception of the pirates. Just out of curiosity, if you were going to replace the pirates which race's shipset would you believe suits the pirates better?

Ah I understand the amount of time that can be sunk into playing Fallout 4! I've completed the Institute story-line now and am tempted to replay by joining another faction instead. I have Battlefront as well but have not played it much due to other time contraints. I'm currently playing a gigantic sized map GC3 game as the Terran Sovereignty and now control roughly a quarter of the map... I don't see any end in sight though as my main rivals are the Quantum Cyberiat, who control a large chunk of the map, and the Minzari who are supposed to be peaceful but just decided to declare war on me. Looks like I'll be eating them next for breakfast! 

I think the next patch release is not until next month, but hopefully something will be officially announced soon. Although it will more likely be Soon™ rather than soon... 

Hey guys! GRM is proud to release a new Add-On package!

The Delnorian Renegades, a new race and a unique shipset based on the Revenge of the Snathi DLC is now available here:

Please let me know ASAP if anyone runs into any problems, like a missing logo or something!

REQUIRES REVENGE OF THE SNATHI DLC

Ask and you shall receive friend.

Excellent work!

Also, I don't really have a set I would re-do, so much as I wouldn't have done them in the first place and would do different sets that are more important to me. The Veygar do come to mind though, because my methods were not as clear back then, and I made some major component mistakes, some of those ships can't be redesigned really.

Also I just am not proud of the Minzari, except for their large battleship the Sharlin Warcruiser. Ultimately, the Minbari just don't have good high-res, high detail/poly source material and that really made it difficult.

Glad you liked the review!

I'm not certain what you mean about this.

"also do you have a thought about making your own custom faction (not for the mod, but somthing a bit more personal ship set. (with ton of experimenting and refining. ?)"

I don't really have a personal shipset, but, my personal favorites that I made are the Ukaros, Terran Sovereignty, and Clan Tiamat (Zrenrakka)

Hi there! Sorry for the lateness of my reply. I've been out of the country (USA) on a business trip for the past week or so.

Regarding this issue, it could be multifaceted. For one, I've heard of a shipyard/designer bug that causes crashing in the latest version. With the maps though, I have not heard of that, and I'm not having any such issue myself.

I recommend submitting a support ticket with StarDock. Failing that, I would go as far as a complete uninstall of GC3, and then reinstall, test the game, and then add in GRM and test from there.

Sorry, I wish I had a better answer for you.

Gauntlet, with the upcoming expansion should I remove the current GRM and wait for a newer version with all the new stuff and updated?

PSSTTTT

Any of you people with the 1.6 VIP update or Mercenaries Beta see if GRM is compatible or not ?

Sweet! Thanks, looking forward to an easy update then.

Thanks! I'll look into it. I thought I had fixed that, but, seemingly not. It tends to be race specific so if you know which one, let me know.  

I'm running 1.5 and all the factions failed validation. What should I do?

EDIT: Forgot to enable mods now their working.

So perhaps you can avoid some of this issue by using less races? Or, less GRM shipset races at least.

But that is lame.

Alrighty, so I believe tomorrow is release for Mercs and 1.6 of standard edition.

The plan:

1) With 1.6, the recent ship designer crash bug should be fixed, I'll quickly finish some work I had started for the Fulgar Tradeholds to have their own custom starbases.

2) Update GRM to 2.2, which will add Starbases to Fulgar, introduce the Aquilarans, and otherwise ensure compatibility.

3) Build and launch GRM-Mercs 1.0, compatibility for Mercs specifically. Will include content from Point 2.

I'll hopefully crank this all out before Saturday, since I think it will be easy to make things compatible. Then over the weekend, I'll start work on:

1) Starbases for the Ukaros.

2) New shipset using the new parts, most likely, for a race called "the Screelings" these will be introduced as a Mega Event, not a race, but the shipset will be available as always. The Screelings are part of the GRM Lore and effectively, a traveling race that isn't really interesting in colonizing so much as enslaving. In-Game, if I can make it work, the event will spawn several fleets of singular Huge carrier ships, that park around planets and then attack nearby ships/structures. They won't invade planets, but impose a huge morale/production planet. Representing the Screelings terrifying and demanding tribute from the local populace. Over time, each Huge ship will eventually gain escorts and such and become a larger and larger fleet.

If anyone out there is familiar with modding mega events and was willing to help me, I would love that.

3) Custom mercenaries based on GRM designs and lore. For example, part of the lore, is that when the Terran Republic fell, several fleets of their went rogue and conducted terrorist attacks on Aquilaran civilian colonies (reprisals for their use of bio weapons during the war). These rogue fleets were eventually shattered and scattered and many individual ships have since either become mercenaries, or, have been bought/captured and repurposed.

So expect some designs from the Orion Star Republic (their designs are continuations of the Terran Republic's) making an appearance, as well as Fulgar, Raiders, and Delnorians who are all quite liberal about sharing technology and selling ships to third parties.

I'll of course make some unique ships over time.

TLDR: Making new stuff soon. Looking for help with custom Logos and mega event modding!
