Installation Instructions:
----------------------------------------
NOTE: If you want to replace the stock Aegian with this ship, make sure to rename tnc_aegean.bmp to ffrigate.bmp, tnc_aegean.odf to ffrigate.odf, and tnc_aegean.sod to ffrigate.sod. DO NOT rename TNC_Aegean.tga or TNC_Aegean_b.tga. Renaming the wireframes and build button are optional.
1) Place the tnc_aegean.bmp file in Bitmaps/Admirals Log/Ship Images folder
2) Place the tnc_aegean.odf file in ODF/Ships folder
NOTE: Skip to step 4 if you are replacing the stock Aegian.
