Create a single pack with all the community improvements #3

Not a real issue, but imho it would be nice and really easy to condense the:

In to a single package/zip (less than 2mb) and call it "Homeworld Cataclysm: Community Patch".

I was actually planning to integrate a few of these into CET as executable modifications so they don't conflict with other mods that touch the same files. Max LOD is already in, but the rest are not integrated yet.

From what I recall, that NLIPS mod does not touch the distance scaling used for capital ship engine glow effects, which is controlled by entries like trailScaleCap and trail2ScaleCap in a capital ship's SHP file.

Incidentally, Homeworld 1 also used these variables for the engine glow scaling, but only Cataclysm had at least one helpful dev comment in one of the SHP files, to describe what the variable actually does: N-LIPS for engine glow -- should be same as N-Lips value

Commenting out those entries will disable them, of course.
