Steam Workshop updates.

Updated ECM folder for Steam Workshop.

Elite's Conflict Mod v1.2 Demo #1 released December 2018. This released featured our two primary factions with a number of balance changes, model and texture updates, new galactic conquest maps, stereo quality music tracks, new planets and correct lore, and a number of other smaller adjustments to the base game.

Elite's Conflict Mod v1.2 Beta released in August 2016. It featured new maps, units, and planets as well as a ton of bug and balance updates. Massive amounts of feedback from the community and the expansion of our mod team after this release has allowed us to develop many aspects of this game that previously would have been impossible to work on.

Elite's Conflict Mod v1.1 released in early June 2016. Our goal for v1.1 was to have the fans play the game and submit feedback, giving us the opportunity to fix any issues we didn't find prior to release. It also allowed us to finish extra content that wasn't quite ready for the previous release. We want to say thank you to all of the fans who commented or messaged us about what they would like to see or any problems they had.
