Birth of the Federation

Also I'd like to patch the borg with an anti cloaking device (i.e. force auto-decloak for all ships fighting them). The coward habit of humiliating the borg with cloaked fleets is unfair and game-unbalancing wrt none-cloak empires. But I'd like to hear the opinion of the CIC on this :?: I think tha...

Why do not all Klingon ships have a cloaking device like the Romulans??? PS: I like to give the Klingon Empire a chance! That's not a question I can answer. And in vanilla & ECM klingons are one of the most powerful empires to play with on t4 & t5. I do really appreciate your work, and many...

Thx for your last reply! But one thing in BoF I do not understand: Why do not all Klingon ships have a cloaking device like the Romulans???

PS: I like to give the Klingon Empire a chance!

ECM and playing Federation, Cardassians or the Ferengi with Borg "ON" in the settings, you have not any (zero!) chances to survive. The Borg will crumble your empire in the later game to a pitty village... :sad: not true doing some testing yesterday as feds waiting on planet killer I took...

EDIT: As you see, the borg threat factor depends on the difficulty level. In ECM they are even more restricted. Also the creators of BotF bragged that no one can beat the game on impossible with borg on (so most afc member have become nobodies :razz: ). I have beaten all Borg on impossible difficul...

1.) Since you said before that you crash log is entirely empty. Could this be an OS / virus protection issue preventing the game from writing to the log file? I do have a Virusscanner (ESET), but it is always offline (not active in RAM). The file "Crash.log" is also NOT writing protected....

At least it sounds like none of these crashes have prevented you from continue the game. You are right...I do love BoF! :grin: if you have a crash that is repeatable upload the saved game and I will take a look at it. If you do upload a saved game include info for current resolution you are using. ...

Hi again Geek God, 2.) Even if the planet killer crashes vs. a cloaked fleet (i.e. 4.1 patch from this topic is not used) there should be a crash log entry? I am playing the Romulans and of course my fleet is always cloaked and there was no a crash log entry (ECM version 4.0). In the long run not t...

since you talked about 2 systems is this a multi player game? unfortunately Multi player game are very prone to random crashes with ntdll.dll error. No, it is not a Multiplayer game. but for now it might be best just to turn off Borg and random events. This can be done by editing stbof.ini before s...

more details would be needed about crashes, dose crash happen at turn process, combat or viewing the same screen is there any crash logs in install path (crash.log) windows also might have a log in "event viewer" is this in multi player or single player game. do crashes start happening la...

As you state this is not an ECM specific issue. But if not done try setting the rendering in the ini file in the ecm directory via notepad to software. I don't recall the exact name of the ini file and 3d rendering line in it. My setting in the ini-file was already 3D=SOFTWARE. That's an unfixed mo...

you might try to un-install everything again, but install "tools" first this will setup DxWnd to run game from desktop shortcut and may fix your issue. I uninstalled the "Error Correction mod" and BoF (vanilla) and reinstalled both together with DxWnd. I start both with DxWnd-To...

did each system use the same download? if not it might be a corrupt download. or the newer system might need some missing directX files "DirectX 9 redist" this topic has links and info for both issues https://www.armadafleetcommand.com/onscreen/botf/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=3509&p=509...

Hi, i am using your "Error Correction mod" from BOTF_All_in_One_1.0.1 package, but there are some issues with your mod. It does NOT work with my Nvidia 970M graphic-card (newest Driver), only with Intel HD 4600 (both on Windows 7 64). But on Intel HD 4600 your mod is unstable (many crashes...
