Questions regarding UE & UM5

Post by Classyguy25 »

Good Morning,

I am going to start with an apology because I am not knowledgeable on coding what-so-ever.

In reading through the forums and downloading the UE, I thought I could alter the sizes of the galaxies in UM5. Unfortunately, after making the changes, the mouse cursor fix has been reversed somehow and the galaxy view is not filling the display. I am assuming I am missing a step or a fix that I need to do in order to make the game resume running normally at the updated galaxy sizes.
I am actually trying to restore the Sml & Med size galaxies to their vanilla values within the mod, but like I said... no dice.

Any advice/assistance anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated. I have been playing this game on and off since buying it from CompUSA many years ago, and so far UM5 is my favorite MOD with all the added content available for the minor races.

Thanks again!

if your only issue is galaxy not filling up area you need to run the "botfrespatch"

see this topic for botfrespatch files
viewtopic.php?p=30780#p30780

Note; you will need to extract all files from stbof.res so botfrespatch can read them.

This is due to UE does not adjust for different resolutions other than 800 x 600.
