Birth of the Federation

1. No error on crash log or event viewer This would be the very first crash neither logged by event viewer or a crash.log. I havn't ever encountered it before, so forgive when I question you on it. :mrgreen: The only reason I can think of is some clean error exit routine that by modding was shorten...

I have decided to start again. I will have the old gen mod and new gen mod side by side and reapply all ships first(shouldn't take too long with the "better editor" and other things such as patches and stuff I applied and see where it cracks. 1. You still didn't report the error you encou...

Was using UE 0.7.1b before Gosh, the last official version by DCER was UE 0.7.2dev5b, released 12 years back. :shock: https://www.armadafleetcommand.com/onscreen/botf/viewtopic.php?p=34128#p34128 It's however been a development version. By my logs Version 0.7.1b was the last official released relea...

Oh shoot I got confused on the BOTF installer and ue installer. Will double check with updated ue installer OMG I was using the wrong version of the editor for awhile 😔 No chance, there still is no new UE release ready yet. :lol: But when on https://gitlab.com/stbotf/ultimate-editor you scroll down...

Nothing out of the ordinary in event logs either There is an application crash logged for sure. You might look at wrong location, just like you name the BotF installer version instead of the UE version used. ;) eventlog-error.jpg The reported offset tells exactly at what file offset trek.exe crashe...

so far in my tests editing hobs it works very well but as Flocke pointed out my changes causes some offsets to not line up any more in hob file. UE is now in recovery :cool: Based on all the hottohob analysis, I completed to read the whole HOB data now. ( hottohob => https://www.armadafleetcommand....

Sad to hear. :( When there is no crash.log, check windows application event log for what exact offset the application crashed and report. Same offset might already be reported, and if not, the IDA database might bring some light into what actually caused the crash. Beside of this, for larger modding...

So, I might as well ask: Any news yet? :grin: Welcome back! TC has been busy finding new bugs. Now my todo list is double the size than two weeks back. :lol: But, we both confirmed that adding technology levels with UE basically works. Not sure on messed descriptions though. If they got messed with...

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

I had to replay a few more times, but now I agree, the new one indeed looks better.
There is some better explosion detail while the old animation looked more stretched and not exploding.

I can't tell any difference

when I was looking at structures I noticed a strange effect (all mods tested) in video you will notice the tga name changes on each selection except orbital battery? The first image letter of the orbital battery is in upper case, the image file however is in lower case and it failed to find the com...
