New to BC

[sorin]

So I have just purchased this game although I wont have time to install it for a couple of days.  Anyways I thought I would start with a simple question.  Knowing what you know now and the experience you have with existing mods,  Which ones would you install on a fresh install for someone looking to play for the first time.  I will just be playing single player (for now)

Thanks in advance.

If you want to play single player first, I would say just intall the 1.1 fix and maybe foundation for a few other ships or so. Anything else messes the sp pretty much up.
BUT... you can make a second install on which I personally would install Kobayashi Maru 1.0 as a Mod base. It includes most really helpfull scripts and a few (I think 40 or so) good Ships. (of course now are newer available for eg. Galaxy and Defiant and such)

BC Supermod 3.0 is a mega-mod which was solely built for SP use...  you may want to consider this one (be sure to read the comments of the mod as well, altho there are a number of them)...
however, it was not designed to work with any other mods, so it is recommended to have this as its own install and a different one for modding or anything else...

Welcome to BC and BCC!


I should probably mention that it is possible to create more than 1 install of BC, for example, I installed BC once, installed the patch, and I've been copying that directory forever whenever I needed a clean install.
