I struggled with this mod too, I managed to get it to show in a single mission but no crew.
When I selected a command like ahead slow I got the 'Can not comply' message when looking I had no crew.
I tried to copy an ai crew from another ship but that did nothing, I know it says it uses the the crew from FOTRS and OM, I loaded these and got a crew.
when loading I got a black screen, I had to CtrlAltDelete to get to the Taks Manager, I closed the message and SH4 started.
I like this ship I was hoping there might be an answer to having a crew without loading the FOTRS and OM.
I've wanted a commerce raider since I came back to SH.
