Hello

I experience this issue that's consistent, so believe it's a bug.
Have searched forum for "warhawk" but not found any relating posts, so submitting here...

Installed latest 2.0.3, on W10, running DXWnd, and am playing UM5.

Every time i navigate to Romulan's shipbuild menu and hover over Warhawk, it crashes the game, 100% of the time.
Started new game to test, and issue persists / is re-creatable.

Is it impacting anyone else?
Could you kindly look into it.

Regards

[klingonfunfunfun]

Can see in previous page that someone had similar issues with Fed ships and provided their resolution

So FYI
I installed 2.0.3 with 1920x1080 for UM5, and ticked "Select... if you plan on using DxWnd..."

questions about ship cost/stats Dafedz would have to address.

so please report any other issues or they will not get updated/fixed.

Many thanks!
Runs well, still get the odd random crash to desktop, but that's part of BOTF's legacy heh

One issue I have run into and I'm not sure if it's because I beefed up outposts/starbases, but when a small-medium sized fleet attacks my outpost (Fed, Outpost I and II), when the fleet is down to a single ship, it's right up against the outpost and will only fire one beam at the outpost and the outpost will fire only one beam back at the ship and both beams miss every time.
I left it running on Auto for around 10 minutes and they still hadn't hit each other, so I had to close the game and reopen it.
It's happened a few times now.

That's a mod-independent and repeatable BotF issue with stations (model radius vs min weapon distances).
I don't know whether it can be fixed by editing said values.

In your special case (cheat boosted station vs AI fast attack modded to use Charge instead of Strafe) it can happen more often,
but this is NOT an UM5.5. problem.

A workaround is using Harry/Circle (or Strafe/Flyby?) to increase distance to the station (for player ships - AI won't do that).
Most often ships move to the bottom or top of the station so you can fire quite safely.

Thank you, sir

Wasn't quite sure what needed to be done
But saw the other chap mention UE, so used that

It worked wonders

Not sure what "bldset2" does, but trusted u, so added that also
Even incoporated the missing Federation ship files, from previous page's post, whist i was it!

Again, many thanks

[klingonfunfunfun]

Oh
I see what bldset2.zip does now
Thanks for the new buildings!

[Deimos]

That's a mod-independent and repeatable BotF issue with stations (model radius vs min weapon distances).

I figured it might be, yea
I did check the min values for weapons range, but yea, doesn't look like it can be fixed. (by me at least )
Thanks Spocks!

I bet if you looked at tevent.log it would show damage

recharge is too high = ship/station able to regain full shields before next round.
this will give longer battles but will also create no win battles with 1 vs 1

[Spocks-cuddly-tribble]

That's also possible, but I in this case I think model radii of the station and the last ship are overlapping leading to missing shots.

Simple workaround for this cheat game is either using automatic battel this turn or cheat boosting the stations stats even further.

problem is doing these, UM5 has so many files that were either replaced/renamed or no longer in use, but old files are still part of his package.

this makes it very difficult to tell what is needed. Just looking today at these files hurt my head.
