Birth of the Federation

Sorry for the spam, but is there no archive of old versions of these mods so I can see if reinstalling 3.0.1dd fixes the issue?

So even after install with correct resolution, it doesn't appear I can play the old version after copying trek.exe and stbof.res from the old version. It just crashes upon trying to run the game. Bummer. As far as the DPI settings, if I just run from Dxwnd, the game is off-centered on the screen. It...

So I downloaded the all-in-one, and went ahead and installed all of the mods. I followed your instructions above for UDML, and that actually worked. However, I am running into a couple issues. First, the cosmetic 1366x768 patch doesn't seem to work with my older version of UDML. That's not so bad. B...

Thanks Thunderchero. I will give this a try.

I installed The Ultimate Dominion Mod version 3.0.1dd back in 2014. I installed it on a portable HDD and ran the game from the HDD. Worked fine. I have since purchased a new computer and this is the first time I've come back to botf. I plugged in the portable HDD and tried to run the game, but it di...

many bug fixes have been applied for diplomacy, but once a minor becomes a member of a different empire you must bribe them away. This take a lots of money. or just subjugate them. :grin: thunderchero Thanks TC...to clarify I'm talking about the inability to even discover a minor race because they'...

Question about discovering minor races. Does the UDM mod (or any mod for that matter) allow you to discover a minor race after it has already been incorporated (either conquered or brought in peacefully) by another empire? That is one thing that always annoyed me about the vanilla version--that I co...

correct they will no longer work on current version. and as far as I know there are no plans for new ones. thunderchero Bummer. TC, do you know which version is compatible with those scenarios and if it's still available for download? Love to check them out. Also, was udml (large maps) not included...

I downloaded Mentat's canon scenarios from earlier in this thread (posted by KrazeeXXL), but the game crashes when I try to load a save. Do those saves not work with 3.0.1dc? Are there any canon saves available for this version?

to completely prevent auto upgarding of ships that would take little more work. you would have to open correct stbof.res with UE and change each ship for upgrade to none. the patch I thought you were tring to prevent was the hull lose when auto upgrading. The patch is green since it is in use you n...

There's no patch called "Auto-upgrade ships". I have a patch called "Ships in build queue occasionally not auto-upgraded (fix)". It combines two patches 3.1 and 3.3 from https://www.armadafleetcommand.com/onscreen/botf/viewtopic.php?t=1797 Is that the one you're talking about? T...

I have not tried this but it was designed to do it (removing code). here is a link to QD's patcher tool https://www.armadafleetcommand.com/onscreen/botf/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=2515 make backups of the trek.exe before making changes and a new game maybe required to see changes just open the trek.ex...

Wondering if there is a way to turn off the feature that automatically upgrades starships when you attain new tech levels? (Sorry if it's been covered...wasn't finding anything with Search).
