Birth of the Federation

Is Stardust still around? I was wondering about getting permission to update the mod. Tried a PM but no response yet.

Still not sure exactly what the issue is but I do know it's not the UE now. After uninstalling and reinstalling Java, UE will work but only when I haven't opened Internet Explorer first. Not sure what IE does to make UE not work but it only does it on my laptop. It also doesn't do it when I use Chro...

I just developed a problem with UE_0.7.1b and I was wondering if anyone else had the same issue. After my last windows update (gotta love those) all my UE will do is flash the black DOS window. I have Win7 32 bit on a Panasonic CF-31. Undoing the update didn't help. Deleting and downloading UE again...

So even after it's part of your fleet it still will never work that way?

Has anyone redone a ship like the DY-100s or DY-500s? Or maybe a Y or J-class freighter or something like the SS Conestoga? They'd be good early transports and colony ships.

I was just curious if anyone has tried to make an Angosian Prisoner transport work as a troop transport. I switched its type and it says it is starting to build outposts but stays at 0% complete. I tried invading with it and it wouldn't allow it. I tried assigning it with a regular troop transport w...

That did the trick. Now we'll see what I can do with it all.

I can find how to convert a file to a .tga file, but I can't find where the original map file is.

Well that's odd, I must not have clicked save or something because the ship problem is fine now. I am trying to find the screen that gives diplomatic messages. In the original All The Ages Mod, there was always a screen that still mentioned the Sheliak although they were replaced. This was when they...

I may not be in the right forum but I am trying to change the background images on the maps and other screens. I can't find it anywhere in the UE editor's menus so I wondered if I was missing it or of it was someplace else. I'm also having trouble with some of the ship modifications I've made, speci...

In a small galaxy on the vanilla I took out my two enemies in vendetta mode by turn 20. Of course I was tech 5, they were tech 1 and they ended up being about as close as they could be.

I have played this mod almost exclusively but I use the extra large map. I do have a few gripes. I mostly play the Federation so my comments will be directed there but they likely apply elsewhere. First off is the automatic upgrading of ships. When I build early, I try to make as many light cruisers...

I guess i've been playing a mod and I never figured it out in the original game. Do the other races have something like that too?

I must be missing it but I have never really figured out what "special ships" the Utopia Planitia actually builds.
