Birth of the Federation

I missed that in earlier post, Back in the days of windows 7 I used Ntlite also. It was very nice when I did OS install every other month lol
but have not done that in years.

I know you want to do things yourself, but will offer if you want me to look at files I will (stbof.res and trek)

when looking for windows event logs,

make sure the you are in right section on left of screen "windows logs/application"

As Flocke said I have never heard of a crash to desktop without windows event log.

The version in installer would be 0.9.0dev3 (same as latest Pre-Built release)

I doubt it but it need to be fixed, that is mainly used to calculate system placement
if it all does not add up to 1.0 it does not calculate correctly

what version of UE was that checked with?

1. any time you edit buildings you need to edit/starting conditions/starting technology "autoset all"
2. run integrity check

Sorry when I gave this impression. time test was just to confirm patches have no effect on combat turn processing in time test without Tactical Combat Excessive Memory Usage Fix. (might do test with patch) vanilla, evade and new evade all took same time avg 16:47 (7 turns) with same results. combat...

Sounds like you maxed out on sound effects. Too many hits at same time maybe.

never made it into combat screen

this is last screen I see before crash

I ran into this crash to desktop while testing on new evade patch, but also happens on current evade crash patch large combat 547 vanilla ships models (546 combat does not crash) and I have both saves crashes after selecting "fight" but before entering combat screen. no crash log event vie...

I can't tell any difference :up: The fixed mbboom looks better. :wink: thank you too bad ECM uses shared explosions :cool: here is patch files for vanilla note; files contain texture.lst and palette.lst and they will only work with vanilla to add to other mods register texture mshock.gif (should sh...

Here are some test files for vanilla install this need all kinds of combat testing :wink: edited hob files, after files are extracted just add all files with UE or add file tool to vanilla stbof.res edited a.zip Here is b_c_hob.patch b_c_hob.patch NAME: Disable usage of _b.hob and _c.hob AUTHOR: Spo...

a bit more debugging might provide a better/easier trek.exe based solution. We know the hardcode loops for a/b/c hob files where the LOD data/files for the switches get prepared in some sort of list. Your tests show the "total texture set" value in the HOB is used for this: Hex location i...

mbboom took a little more to fix. it was missing mapping so I used; rbboom.hob renamed to mbboom.hob mbboom.gif renamed to mshock.gif rbboom.gif renamed to mbboom.gif and assigned mshock.gif palette here is what it looks like now https://www.youtube.com/v/YQiKFXaUlFY here is what it looked like befo...

Hi Everyone, testing UE I noticed the fbboom.hob has extra textures assigned t01_a.gif twice. :???: fbboom.jpg but this has really no effect on how explosion displays in game since those texture have no mapping. :wink: this is easy to fix though the rbboom.hob uses same mapping. rename and assign pr...
