Hey all the Nexus lovers.

Here is a great mod by firewarrior1705 for Nexus: The Jupiter Incident. It will be an ongoing project and there has already been significant work done to the mod already. From the ship models to the music soundtrack, it just sets you up for playing hours in the Star Trek universe.

You can download the mod from SpaceSimCentral here: Star Trek Enhanced Space Combat v1.2

or download from MODDB here: http://www.moddb.com/mods/star-trek-enh ... /downloads

Here is the mod notes from MODDB:

Quote:

This mod is a total conversion based upon the Star Trek universe for the tactical fleet simulator game Nexus - The Jupiter Incident. There are 10 playable races(Federation, Klingons, Romulans, Borg, Cardassians, Dominion, Breen, Species 8472, Sona and Ferengi) each with their own ships and weapons. This is a long term project.

Current Version: 1.2

I have yet to try v1.4 of this mod. I have only played around with 1.0 so eventually I will get around to loading this one up.

Yes very nice mod 😎 , but I only have one niggle with it. Star Trek ships are supposed to rely on their warp engines for manoeuvring and not thrusters. I think they should up the manoeuvrability of the ships. Just a minor niggle though!

Another mod (to my mind at least) more in keeping with the Nexus engine is Babylon 5: Conflicts Of Loyalty 2. This mod has recently begin creation after the original Conflicts Of Loyalty mod fizzled out. Here is a teaser vid of the original mod to see what might have been

And for more info on version 2, have a look here on Mod DB, http://www.moddb.com/mods/babylon-5-con ... -loyalty-2
