Do you have an i_***_c.tga for the Ambassador, Constellation and Galaxy-X I can use? There's none in the UDM files and all my old files are gone or don't work with 1920_1080 resolution.

I wish you could come out with a version of ECM that's like UDM with all the ships including the Galaxy-x. That way it'd be like Vanilla with the benefit of the extra ships.

you need to install the 1920 x 1080 UDM for those files.

if you already had UDM 1920 x 1080 installed did you rename them properly?

Yeah, I'm using UDM 1920_1080. Just tried adding the Excelsior again. Imported the ship into HU_ placeholder, then added ship string to HobMappings ,added i_hu__c.tga to files and set up the ship in shiplist. Game now crashes at launch.

Yes, I selected 1920_1080 for both ECM and UDM when installing All in One.

I followed these steps to add the Excelsior. I can get the game to run and go into the research menu. But if I try to add the tga file and visit the ship in the build queue, the game will crash. I am sure I put the correct file name for the tga. Because the placeholder is HU_, I added the tga as i_hu__c.tga. Isn't that correct?

This is where I encountered a problem last time. I extracted the TGA for the Excelsior and added it to ECM stbof.res so it'll be in the build queue. But the game crashes.

Okay, it appears to be working for now. I am not sure what happened in the first place. The only thing I can think of is there was a problem when I created a copy of the ship. Additionally, are you able to provide the modern tga files for the Ambassador, Constellation, Galaxy-X, Mirandas and such? There's no update tga of those in the UDM files.

the image in this post of UE on the left looks to not even have 1920 x 1080 installed (no i_***_c.tga's)

as I asked before do you have UDM 1920 x 1080 MPR++ installed it does not look like you do.....

as for missing images you want, I only have the same file you have from All in One installer you can check other mods to see if they have images you are looking for.

I did. I told you that many, many times. Those are the i_***_c.tga files that came with the 1920_1080 stbof.res. I don't know what files you added to the installer. If you think they are wrong maybe you should check them cause I installed 1920_1080.

I found most of the tga files to overwrite the old Vanilla ones. Certain ones are missing like the Galaxy-X. I don't know what other mod I can get them from. All the Ages can't even use MPR++
