Files Erased-Assistance Needed
In a catastrophic accident, I erased all of my saved files for everything including BOTF on my HDD. All my hard work of last 5 years is gone. I wasn't able to recover them as the data was corrupted.
Could anyone help me get up and running again with ECML and UDM? I have the MPR++ 2.6c demo installer but I couldn't get the 1024 MPR. I need whatever files to get ECML, All the Ages, and the current version of UDML up and running again.
I am also looking for an older version of UDM. I think it's 3.0.1_b before many ship changes were made. I need a good version of UE that lets you see group stats for ships and buildings.
Finally, does anyone have updated ship packs that will work with current game versions as well as the old 1.02 English_German patch?
@Thudercero
I would be happy to tryout All in One 2.0.0 beta too but the DL isn't working.
Thank you

many of the files you are looking for is no longer available.
link to UDM 3.0.1 C can be found in this topic
viewtopic.php?f=25&t=826&start=15#p45134
but without the multi installer base files it is worthless unless you find a way to manually add files.
The All in One 2.0.0 is in full release (was uploading file when you attempted) and can be found in download section.
https://www.armadafleetcommand.com/get- ... le_id=1958
or in my google drive
UE has not changed in 12 years and is also in download section
https://www.armadafleetcommand.com/get- ... file_id=71
ECM no longer has a large version available.
MPR++ 1024 is not needed, install mod at resolution you desire and then patch with MPR++_demo_installer_0.2.6c.exe
good luck

Re: Files Erased-Assistance Needed
Thunder, thank you for the care. And thank you for sharing the links.
So, as far as 3.0.1 c is concerned, there will be no way to run it with the All in One install? Is the 1.02 English_German patch gone? I think I used
to use that for many older mods as it was the most stable.
MPR ++ should work with the All in One 2.0.0 installer for updated ship graphics?
For UE, do I still need to install Java? I am reluctant to use it as it's old, obsolete and has inherent security issues.
The old days and files are gone, but looking forward to hashing out all the potential bugs with 2.0.0 so we can make BOTF great again

Re: Files Erased-Assistance Needed
yes it will, except ECM requires additional file to install after mpr++ is installedJeanLucPicard1 wrote: ↑Thu Jul 09, 2020 11:56 pm MPR ++ should work with the All in One 2.0.0 installer for updated ship graphics?

Re: Files Erased-Assistance Needed
Okay, so what is the correct install order if I want to run ECML with MPR++ in 1080? Vanilla, All in One 1.0 or 2.0, MPR++, 1080 patch, then ECM 4.0 MPR++ patch?

Re: Files Erased-Assistance Needed
ECM has not had a large map version since ECM 3.0
If you do changes below you would no longer have normal map version.
install order
1. install ECM from all in one 2.0.0 with option 1920 x 1080
2. apply ECM_1920_1080_large_map.patch with bof_patcher see link and attachment below
viewtopic.php?f=126&t=2515#p35394 note; this patch only works on ECM 1920 x 1080
3. apply MPR++_demo_installer_0.2.6c.exe (use ECM normal option not large, large installs to wrong path)
4. apply MPR++_demo_ECM_4.0_patch.exe
If you do changes below you would no longer have normal map version.

Re: Files Erased-Assistance Needed
Hi Thunder,
I haven't had a chance to attempt this install until now. How do I install the large map patch? The patch has no file extension e.g., .exe, zip.

Re: Files Erased-Assistance Needed
Ok, I am assuming I needed to add the ECM 1920_1080 file to the patch folder. I then ran the patcher, located the trek.exe and then applied the patch. I ran ECM but when I when to the ships tab in research the game crashed. I even tried just installing ECM and MPR++ and the game still crashed when going to the ships tab.
I also applied MPR++ 2.6c and ECM 4.0 patch for MPR++ as directed. I wish I could just install BOTF 1.02 English_German, ECM 3.0 large and MPR++ again. That was stable. No one has a copy of ECM 3.0?

Re: Files Erased-Assistance Needed
1. have you made any changes to ECM before this doing this? if this will corrupts install order.
2. when running the bof_patcher only apply the "ECM 1920 x 1080 large map" patch
I just tested process without error/crash

Re: Files Erased-Assistance Needed
No, I just followed your original install order steps 1-4.1. have you made any changes to ECM before this doing this? if this will corrupts install order.
As I said, I did. I didn't apply any other patch because they were in green and listed as already installed.2. when running the bof_patcher only apply the "ECM 1920 x 1080 large map" patch

Re: Files Erased-Assistance Needed
I have no idea where the process failed
sorry that is about all I can do.
I doubt anyone still has a 10 year old file. I don't

Re: Files Erased-Assistance Needed
It's okay, I understand. Just wish I didn't accidentally erase all of my botf files. I had every mod variation you came out with for ECM and UDM.

Worked for Vanilla. Installed Vanilla and MPR++ 2.6c. No DxWnd. ECM still crashes.
