I agree totally. I looked at all the Balao submarine files and the modification dates on the 2.7 version are all older than those on 2.5. At this point I can't recommend replacing 2.5 with 2.7, especially with the loss of Nisgeis' great work. I'm going to have to research exactly how I got the file and backtrack for clues here.

In the meantime, I sure wouldn't be jumping out of 2.5 into 2.7.

This is from the Kickinback ftp server, to which I have lost the logon information I need to research further. Nobody is around kickinback.com, where most of this modding used to take place. It was the place where Nisgeis developed the 3D TDC and Ducimus integrated it into TMO. They were very hot on that project and I know Ducimus wouldn't have subsequently abandoned it.

I have an old backup of my XP machine that might still have the info I need but nowhere to restore it to right now to check that out. Wonder what gymnastics I'd need to go through to convince Acronis True Image to install that in a virtual machine? Could be very interesting......

And equally interesting is why the version 2.7 number was on this apparently older version of TMO aboard the kickinback ftp server.
