Default AP Prefs.ini?

from Stardock Forums
Hey guys,

I had installed the Star Trek mod at one point in my AP folder. The mod overwrites your prefs.ini file with some custom settings and empire names among other things. As I no longer play with this mod and forgot to back up my original prefs.ini, could someone point me to a place I can obtain it and/or post the contents of their prefs.ini if they haven't tweaked it too much?

Thanks!

If all else fails, you can deinstall your old GalCiv/AP and download a clean version via Stardock Central (not sure about AP here - don't own it, but with GalCiv it's no problem - did that several times).

Yeah, I was hoping to avoid that if possible. It's slightly obnoxious that the original data files are posted but not the AP files.

Delete everything in your Prefs.ini and place the below there instead (cut, copy and paste; do it in Note Pad or similar). It is my AP Prefs.ini. Then all you need do is fire up the game and change various defaults to your own desires.
