This from SoMeOnE:



The Ghost's Starsiege Expansion is a "mod set" handler application for the Starsiege computer game. Starsiege in itself is an open ended game meaning that it is easily moddable to the point where the game is no longer Starsiege. The GSE is a set of scripts that allows the user to "plug-and-play" between various mods that have been properly formatted for the GSE. The GSE also comes packaged with three mod sets.
...
I warn you now, these mod sets were never fully completed. Therefore there are still things in the GSE that can possibly crash Starsiege or even your computer (mostly it comes from the campaigns, Haunts in particular).
To change mod sets: There is a file called datLoad.cs. Open it in a text editer. Where it says year simply change the numerical value to that which you want to play. Make sure that the ; is still in place at the end of the line. To play regular Starsiege, simply put in the number 2828, 2797 for 2797, and 4101 for 4101.
A lot of blood, sweat, and tears were put into making this. It's just unfortunate that it was never completed.


The good news is that one campaign (Traces), is already finished, along with 3 unused mod sets, and SoMeOnE has announced that he will be working on two other modsets as GSE compatible; one a conversion of an older mod called Ragnarok and another something brand new called 2831 which will change Starsiege's statistics, weapons and vehicles to be more in line with those of the old Starsiege: Rebellion board game.

The GSE is and was probably the most ambitious Starsiege modding project ever attempted. It is definately worth your time - even veterans will find the Traces campaign a challenge. Go on over and grab the GSE from the website.
