Birth of the Federation

Qapla'!!! :up: Yes it used to run in 1366 before and so it does again now. Either the problems were caused by the older graphics driver or it really was caused by the HDMI cable. :shock: I updated to the latest graphics driver and switched back to the DVI cable and boom. Everything seems to be runni...

Well I've made some progress but unfortunately I'm still not able to play. I checked all drives with chkdsk and it reported no NTFS errors or bad sectors. Redownloaded the AiO installer and tried installing again. DxWnd was the only thing that got installed before the installer hung again. I then tu...

Well the only desktop icons I get are "DxWnd Fullscreen" and "Birth of the Federation". Start menu entries seem to appear for everything but most of them are displayed as a white sheet instead of the usual mod symbol. And when I click on them windows wants to search for the file ...

Ah great I watched the first two episodes late yesterday night and wrote a reply here but the server seems to hate me...anyways I was quite surprised. In a very positive manner. I didn't expect much beforehand...but I stayed open minded and didn't wanna destroy the series beforehand. And therefore I...

Very good to know. I missed this because I never use the start menu.

Ah, I see, so it's intended. Thx for your test and the link.

Hey, I didn't quickly found a topic for Building Mod (search result came up with over 130 pages) so I thought I'd post here. May have found a bug in Building Mod. Started a game with all empires at tech level 5 playing as feds on small irregular galaxy. However in the game when I go to tech screen I...

Install path shouldn't have spaces in it. When using the path D:\Games\Star Trek\BotF the game crashed upon launching with a trek.exe has stopped working message. No matter which mod or resolution I chose Using D:\Games\BotF works like a charm though. IIRC this problem was discussed back in the days...

Works like a charm now

Nevermind. I'll stick with it then for the AFC mod. As long as it's the only mod making trouble it's no big deal at all. Appreciate your help very much TC. Thx for all your advice.

nope windowed DxWnd runs fine

Redownloaded and installed. Now it displays right but the mouse cursor doesn't work properly. I can hover over the controls but the buttons won't light up and therefore the game is unusable. Another DxWnd setting which I'm missing?

Yeah I'm thinking about reverting to an older driver. Even windowed with your proposed resolution does show the game in upper left corner. edit: Odd, I just reinstalled new version of UCW 2.0a that crashed during galaxy generation before and it ran without issues with the DxWnd that comes with the m...

yes I tried it from the folder
