and just remember: only installing the game with english language will bring you to the english version.
If failed, just repeat installing in english

"- If more than 6 majors are available, it is possible to scroll through the majorlogos in the intelligence menu"

"- BotE can now handle more than 6 majors (systems are created properly for other majors)"

I assume that this has yet to be implemented as I haven't expanded enough yet to find any suprises

Also, I would imagine that the goal of creating "medium" races is easier down grading a major race, than upgrading a minor race, as far as the code writing goes.

Keep up the good work.

SirP said he would descripe in nearer future how to implemente further major races although they wouldn't be playable. AI will play them. The game is made ready for it. (with little changes of yourself than you can change a majorrace 7 or 8 into Major 1-6. But only for Major 1-6 skins, own buildings, ship etc. are avaible)

the original game itself further will provide playing five (later six) major races.

here is first help to get familiar with BotE http://translate.google.de/translate?hl ... e_Schritte and here the manual translated by google http://translate.google.de/translate?hl ... dbuch.html

after last crash I hope our homepage will be restarted soon ...well it's restarted under http://www.hp.birth-of-the-empires.de but not activated. But it's only our visiting card, with not too much content. Content you can find at http://www.wiki.birth-of-the-empires.de. Both are easy google-translateable.

For German speakers there's also the BotE-main forum www.forum.birth-of-the-empires.de

at first post there is a direct link to the newer Alpha6.1 version (newer than the one offered at the star-trek-games.com portal site).

Hi.

As the last update was last May, I was wondering.......... Is there any further update available after Alpha 6.1 (internal version 0.81) planned for any time soon?

I only play single player due to time constraints, (I only get about 20 mins here or there these days) and without planetary conquest single player very quickly becomes a "who can populate the most planets quickest" game.

Regards

Mike

there isn't a date planned for the next release but atm many are working on it

Thanks for the update Reg.

Don't want to come across as mithering, but if you don't ask, you don't get.

Sometimes even when you ask, you don't get either.

Can you pass on my best wishes and gratitude for the ongoing work to our hard working friends on the German forum.
