thats all folks

***************************************************

known issues


certain tooltips still not working properly ,cant figure it?


multi targeting pulse phasers can fire at nothing ,still

textures for dai-x taken from red dwarf picture as the pictures on the net for dai-x are of such low quality and the series ive got is of similar quality they cant be used
so i shall keep looking

texture used is the the best shot of red dwarf ive found on the net which is not so good but thats that

****************************************************

credits




weapons : deja vu for the full spread phaser weapon which is the basis for the multi target pulse phasers

and major a payne for mentioning dai-x in the first place


the guys on the forum for the weapons advice and westworlds big book of modding.

and all who made this possible.
