It's been 10 months since I posted this. Took the forums long enough to notice my intentional mistake.  Oh, and your feeble assassination attempts failed V. But I encourage you to continue. It amuses me how many people have tried and failed.

*smiles in barely veiled pure pleasure* Thanks to notepad+, it's fairly easy for me to go in and modify production.  *mumbles* now about the research...

It's probably easiest to modify the table files using Excel or its OpenOffice counterpart. That should keep the formatting intact.

I wasn't sure how the formatting would be effected in Excel, which is why I didn't recommend using it. But i'm also used to editing the ship tables from Starfleet Command 2 in Notepad - and the table file for that game is several hundred times larger than the table files for Supremacy. I didn't think about others.
Still looking to mod the research rate Alex? I could write a similar guide on that if you want.

Hehe I...acquired...SFC3 last year. I completed it in three days.  Not played Armada 2, the Elite Force games, or Bridge Commander. I've also completed Legacy (Which was another...acquisition...) and now I play it exclusively with the Aftermath mod. Let me know if you want to know how to mod any other aspect of the game.

Finished and modded BC back in 2004, Same thing with Armada 2 in 2008, finished Elite Forces, SFC I and III, Away Team, Legacy, Dominion Wars, The Fallen, 25th Anniversary and of course played BOTF since 2003. Now Star Wars, finished and modded Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy in 2004, finished Battlefronts, Pod Racer, Republic Commando, Battle for Naboo, one that I can't remember from '98, and modded and played Empire at War and Forces of Corruption expansion. Although I have modded all that games I have only released one mod a year ago: http://empireatwar.filefront.com/file/R ... rds;103335But I still have the rest on my PC. And yeah I made two games, one Star Trek and one Star Wars. If you want I can post screenshots. Hehehehehehe, all that in 17 years. Beat that!

Yeah, I spent a lot of hours playing and modding them.

@Matress: WHAT??!? You've never played EF1 or EF2?!!? This is tragic. *faints*...2 hours later...*gets up and continues writing* I've never actually modded a game before (Well, a little with Star Trek Armada, and dabbled in modifying Elite Force 1. I've modified some other non-Star Trek and non-Star Wars games before. But these mods were never finished). BTW, vjeko, how do you mod Away Team? I've been trying for ages!! I think some aspects could use a boost. I actually just think the game needs some balance. I found out you can cheat items in that game using Cheat Engine  . Barring that, I really would like to mod it. I never really got into Star Trek Legacy, or the SFC series. I found Bridge Commander with the Kobayashimaru mod, and Armada with the Armada Restoration Project Mod, much more appealing. OMG I think this is the longest post I've written in some time. I must now stop to avoid getting Carpal Tunnel Syndrome  .

I never modded Away Team, just Bridge Commander, Armada II, Elite Force series, Starfleet Command series, Jedi Knight series, Battlefront series, KOTOR series and EAW/FOC. Away Team is unmoddable.

Nope, never played them Andrew. Are they any good? ... The first game I ever modded was SFC2. I figured out how to cheat by giving yourself millions of prestige to buy any ship or starbase you wanted. Then I figured out you could edit the stats of ships, stations, and fighters. Then I started adding in ships I had downloaded and new graphics packs. Then I modded Armada 1. That must be the game i modded the most. God the sheer amount of mods out there was unbelievable. But I also got into modding the game myself. And once I figured out how to mod the Akira's Chain Reaction Pulsar, nothing could stop me.  I've also modded Pharaoh/Queen of the Nile (Which isn't Windows XP Service Pack 2 + 3 compatible  ) and Legacy. Plus i've also downloaded a fair few addons for World of Warcraft. And don't forget Supremacy.

Supremacy doesn't count, we are making the game, not modding it. But good try though.

I modded in a decent Admiral's Flagship for Armada 1, and then a fairly nice Queen's Diamond. It was irritating not being able to properly simulate the conditions of a true borg fight. 8 of 9, tertiary adjunct of Unimatrix 001
