SPECIAL NOTES Events You should be aware that there are 5 events files because there are FIVE different scenarios included in this modpack. Those events files are named: EVENTTOS.TXT, EVENTTMP.TXT, EVENTTNG.TXT, EVENTDS9.TXT, EVENTVOY.TXT. The file named EVENTS.TXT has NOTHING in it! It is a dummy file. If you want to use the events file for your game version you will need to do the following: For STG: THE EARLY FEDERATION, use: EVENTTOS.TXT For STG: THE WRATH OF KHAN, use: EVENTTMP.TXT For STG: WOLF-359, use: EVENTTNG.TXT For STG: MIRROR, MIRROR, use: EVENTDS9.TXT For STG: THE RETURN HOME, use: EVENTVOY.TXT The reason for this is that this scenario is designed to be played with all versions of Civ II, except ToT (Test of Time). This means that players can use this modpack for the scenarios that are included with it and not have to worry that they have the wrong version of Civilization II. Players of CLASSIC CIV II v1.08 thru v2.42 do not get any events, as they are not a part of the program. However, this scenario has been tested under v2.42 and it is well-balanced such that events are not needed. Sounds Sounds are a large part of this scenario and I highly recommend using them. Mostly, the sounds used in this scenario are engineered and rearranged to set the mood and deliberately make STAR TREK GENERATIONS the experience that it is. If you choose not to use the sounds, I would suggest that turning off your speakers because regular Civ II sounds will probably be distracting. THE CIVILIZATION FANATICS CENTER The real question is: Do you like Star Trek Scenarios? Well, there are some pretty good ones out there that I would recommend downloading. If you like ST: Generations, you are going to enjoy scenarios like STAR TREK: DOMINION WARS, and BATTLE FOR THE ALPHA QUADRANT by Kobayashi, and another scenario to check out is STAR TREK: KAPPA QUADRANT by Kevin Klop (aka wilemvanoranje). However, you might want to checkout several other Star Trek scenarios and modpacks that are available at WWW.CIVFANATICS.COM . Also, there is a huge SCI-FI section and a wide range of other scenarios from HISTORICAL to FANTASY. I simply cannot recommend The Civilization Fanatics Center enough. If you play Civilization I, II, III, Colonization, Test of Time or Call to Power 1 and 2, then everything you need or should know about these games is definitely at this site. I have posted over 20 different downloads myself, and I moderate a forum for SCENARIO CREATION in which you can catch both young scenario designers starting out and veterans like myself posting, answering questions, taking requests, and overall having a great time. Also, this would be the place to look for updates and changes not just to this scenario but others as well. Currently, some of the best coverage (if not the absolute best) for the upcoming Civilization III is at this site. A new section to be added to this site will include reviews of both newer and older scenarios with commentaries on game play and stories by other civers. Log on and check it out!
