Aslong you use the new exe you should be good to go.

If you encounter any problems while installing let me know ASAP.
Thanks, I'll give it a try.

Ok, GoG version of game installed & backed-up, just in case. Main mod and Hotfix applied.

Game Launched and settings tweaked, currently just sat watching the action on the menu screen

Update:

Early-game playing very well, it's been a while (more than a while!) since I last played, but the starting area feels much more alive. Through luck, I've gained quite a lot of loot and could potentially buy a ship if I sold it all, however, I'm hesitant in case I break the plot. I recall said plot gives me a larger vessel at some point as a loan, but events lead to me keeping it...

I've progressed a little, I now have the Pirate Mastiff Mothership. I do have a query however, my Mastiff's shields don't recharge at all, so I've taken a lot of hull damage over a couple of minor skirmishes. This makes life a little harder, but not insurmountable.

Additional feedback: I'm unable to repair the Mastiff at Maintenance Stations. I select the "Repair" option, but get told that I need to keep still, and the repair cancels. Lack of shield recharge and no repairs is a problem! Note: sometimes the repairs start but are cancelled, other times they don't start. I do not appear to have control of my ship to hit "S" to stop it. The Dock menus appears before the ship has completed its approach to the station, maybe this is why the game think the ship is moving? I'll keep trying...

Right, when the repair doesn't even start, I cannot even dock at the Station again, I reload to try again. If however the repair does start - which seems pot luck - and I exit the menu and repeatedly press "S" to stop, it will sometimes cancel the repair part way - but ALL money is taken - or it'll complete. Over several attempts I have managed to repair my ship, but it's very hit or miss.

I just noticed that after a successful repair - albeit one I was charged twice for - my shields are now recharging!

Hope my feedback is of use, I confess to not having read this entire thread, so apologies if I'm repeating what others have already said.

Scoob.
