Lol, glorious, yeah glad to hear you were able to resolve the issue
Re: Ultimate Editor
Hi chaps,
I have a question on functionality.
Is there any way to do the following things using UE?;
- Change the ownership of a system (say, from Ferengi to Federation, from minor to major race, or even from major to minor race)
- Change the war/peace status between factions (major and minor)
- Change the territorial access between factions (presently, any modified game I save in UE causes the Federation to be unable to access Romulan space, even if the two are at war at the time. A real pain for scenario building, which I like to do)
- Re-create an extinct Faction (for a bit of fun, say, killing the Klingons, then re-creating them and killing them all over again)
- Change the contact status of factions (there's currently a tick chart showing who has communication with who, but I can't change it)
Thanks for any responses.

Hi Spychotic,
the short answer to all of the questions I'm afraid is no. Maybe someday.
The problem with the territorial access seems to be a bug, I'll have to look into it.
Cheers

Re: Ultimate Editor
Am I an Idiot? I followed the instructions to install the UE but it says stbof.res cannot be found. It's probably something I've done wrong. Any help would be appreciated as I am no computer genius. Thanks, I've enjoyed this site allot and appreciate your efforts

Re: Ultimate Editor
you must select\open the install location you want to edit (C:\botf\stbof.res)

Thanks thunderchero! The way I read the tutorial I thought that that it would show up. When I typed it in (multiple times ) I didn't put ''c'' in front of it. Thank you for your quick response.

Does anyone know how to add planets to a star system using UE, or if it's possible to do so?

Re: Ultimate Editor
As regards to the sun Java, which one, the link you suppled DCER takes you to a page where there is more than 1 Sun Java available.
Kinda confusing.
