Check the crash.log file - it might have some helpful info on the crashes.

You can also use UE to open the saved game - then under Edit->Galaxy->Galactic Map check whether there's a race in the offending sector. Just click the cheat button to reveal the whole map then select the sector. It'll display the sectors info on one of the panels under the map.

You can also open stbof.res and run check integrity in UE. Warnings can be ignored, errors are more serious.

thanks there DCER

no info on crash file sorry and i am now starting to get blue screen of death with similar error messages of code

used UE for 1st time time and offending grid was malon which at one point also said acamarains on the same grid but now is changed to both say malon on the info part below map. there is also another grid which also does this now and any attempt into it again crashes game.

tried switching grids with another grid and same thing happened.

did not know ue can reveal whole map. do people use it on multiplayer games to reveal enemy players?

think i will now try a vanillia 1.0.3 and see if it happens again.

shame as the ships in delta game are great and would love to now the bonuses of each minor race in it as well as fight spieces ????.

also like how we have large populatations. although weapons are a bit on the high side on all

I hope not. This is meant for moving systems around and creating your own map.

Greets,
I just wanted to say keep up the good work. We have a few people in our group that still play this game often. I look forward to trying some of your mods out myself.

First: just have to give a lot of probs for all your work

since I was bored with botf (original) I tried new Dominion mod and worked well.
So I want to try other mods and found the multi-installer.
But Downlaod Link seems broken, just produced some wicked things on my browser (modzilla and opera)
example (Ã¯Â¿Â½OÃ¯Â¿Â½) looks like sourcecode(?)

???

please help! just want to play botf with funny mods not with funny webpages^^

it's a problem with firefox, but it's working if you use right click -> save target

hmmm, I've run into a problem using 1.03.

I keep getting this when looking at the ship screen in the reseach area. it's hapened everytime i go in there in fact on different ships. Ok, the screenshot is off of while I was in the middle of changing the Vanilla ship models for the UDM ones, but i uninstalled 1.03 and tried it just is and i still get this problem.

I'm using the 1.02 multi mod installer from here (i had to download it again as i messed up some things on my PC and had to wipe everything botf related off of my drive), installed it and then i downloaded the 1.03 patch and installed that.

Like i said though, I tried adding ships, thought i had messed something up along the way so I wiped what i did and plonked a backup folder i'd made of everything.

so this post should be in ship post not multi post? what ship was you adding? will look into it tonight.

EDIT; also make sure you have latest UDM ship pack

Well I put it in here because i had the same error turn up with the unmodded version of 1.0.3 just to rule out the possiblity that i messed something up adding ships.

Post by **thunderchero** » Mon Jan 26, 2009 3:19 pm

NP stardust,

if same problem on unmodded 1.0.3 what ships are you having problems viewing in research screen? and what ships you haveing problems adding?
