:cool: C:\\sw3dg\\EvochronMercenary\\ReadMe.htm

Edit ... I guess that's not really on line. Try looking in your main game directory ... the one Steam set up.

I looked in the Steam Evochron folder originally - no Readme file I could see. Definitely no ReadMe.htm file in the C:\\sw3dg\\EvochronMercenary folder.

:cool: Hopefully, some Steam guy will help you out. Or you could download the game from the main webpage:

I would imagine downloading the non-steam version is going to cause conflicts, and cause a broken installation.

Thanks for the link - in response to the original suggestion of reading the ReadMe, I can't see where it answers my question.

How many contracts, on average, should I be expecting to do to raise a systems reputation? 10? 100?

The instructions should be in the steamapps folder. But they are also available online here: http://www.starwraith.com/evochronmerce ... readme.htm

For reputations, it can vary. A change could happen anywhere from maybe around 20-30 minimum up to 100 or more. You can also use bribing and selective ship attacks to shift your reputation.

How are you supposed to bribe? Bribe other pilots? If so, how are you supposed to get to open up the trade menu without getting filled with holes? Trade range is far shorter than weapons range.

You can bribe AI ships and that might improve your rep.
Just target a ship and open trade console when they are in range.

You can try to bribe players as well, but as you said, it might be dangerous!;)

Some players try piracy as well. They try to disable your ship and then they want
cash to let you go LOL! Great fun if they try!:P
