Re: ST:BotF Galaxies MOD v0.3.0a
I just increased techs to 20 for all fields without crashes. It seems the 0x530A3 limiter of 71 (113) can be set to 7F (127) and this somehow allows 21 usable tech levels.

Re: ST:BotF Galaxies MOD v0.3.0a
Thanks, Im really happy how the build screen turned out. It was not very hard, but it was harder than i would have liked it to be. Getting the lcars to connect like that involved moving the wdf a tad in UE to save time...
And TBH, i did not expect to crack the techs even further. We tested before with many values above 71 (113) and it crashed every time. Maybe Peter1981 ended up fixing it with one his updates... but idk, have not been able to contact him.

Re: ST:BotF Galaxies MOD v0.3.0a
This is a bit of good news; i like the idea with more tech levels; currently we have so many ship models (especially federation) that if one wants to put most of them in the game, it is kind of crowded tech-level-wise.
Are these changes ready for download; if yes I would like to try this mod update.
P.S. please don't tell TC but I might start to use this mod as the basis for my game (of course alongside UDM)

Re: ST:BotF Galaxies MOD v0.3.0a
I dont plan on having an download ready for a few weeks, however I am working most of my spare time on the mod so you never know, keep checking back.
Currently the only way to add more techs is to hex edit trek.exe and follow this viewtopic.php?f=9&t=1531 as a guide
Fortunately, UE supports adding techs at least up to 20.

Re: ST:BotF Galaxies MOD v0.3.0a
Oh, thanks for your advice. I can edit the hex value you found through a patch file for QD's patcher tool.
That brings up a bit more questions: will then my main building get more output for levels 11-20 or do I need to do more changes in UE for the main buildings?

Re: ST:BotF Galaxies MOD v0.3.0a
As far as i know the buildings are still hard coded in trek.exe with a limitation of either 10 or 11, although it does seem that UE DOES support buildings at Techs above 10, I will test to see if I can get them buildable at over 10 tech, but then I dont think UE supports over 10 on the Starting buildings and Stating technology pages.

The latest version is on the first post of this topic, aka page 1 at the top. Latest version does not include 20 techs or 1024 resolution, but 15 techs and 800x600 resolution. Next release is TBD.

Re: ST:BotF Galaxies MOD v0.3.0a
I have BOTF 1.0.2 installed already on my laptop as I currently play UDMIII on it, however, the link to download this mod doesn't seem to work - it takes me to "MY 4shared" but it says that the file cannot be found. Can't seem to find the Galaxies Mod in that link thunderchero

It is downloading fine for me.
TC, that link does not contain my mod.
EDIT: It may be that 4shared new policy requires an account to download files. I suggest AFC members look into another free file hosting site that is not registration required, JFYI
