beta testers needed
Hi Everyone,
I am looking for members to do some beta testing on next installer update.
Members who participate by testing and reporting there experience and/or any issue will be eligible to have their user name added to the end credits of vanilla install.
Beta testers should be able to at least play a few games on mods you might not normally play, as well as your favorite mods
If you are interested just reply "interested" and I will PM you the links. Also please post mods you are interested in testing.
all experiences and/or any issues should be reported in this topic

I called legendary beta tester Stevie Wonder to examine the ECM ship textures and weapon animations,
but he had to decline since he is tied up with his voluntary work as school bus driver...

I don't know how many bugs is too many but that point is reached somewhere before however many in BotF is.

Re: beta testers needed
Just for the record, I don't think I have the time to be a beta tester, sorry.

Inital Report for the New Installer:
Installation was painless as usual.
Played 3 hours of UM5 and so far no outstanding issues, I have BOTF, ECM and BOP installed as well and will try to get some play time of each done.
but so far its as expected.

Re: beta testers needed
I sent you a PM but I give up here are the links
file out of date and removed
The links above have the latest ECM updates and UM5 missing images plus some other small fixes found by UE integrity check.
All other mods and vanilla have all integrity check errors fixed also
If no new errors are reported and When next update of UE is ready, New version of UE will be added to installer and then official installer will be released.

If crash issue persists with latest hotfix update try removing this patch for diagnosis: viewtopic.php?p=57729#p57729johnnyblaze wrote: ↑Sun Jul 02, 2023 3:57 pm played - feration turn 135. click end turn and it just crashes (can't get past this point)

The sporadic minor race issue sounds strange.
I don't know how many bugs is too many but that point is reached somewhere before however many in BotF is.

Re: beta testers needed
Dafedz reported issues with "Minors without Main Buildings Fix" (related to the outdated and removed) minor race special structure options.
However, there is still some possibilities for issues: viewtopic.php?p=33859#p33859
- changed Dilithium refinery building ID (part of patch code)
Code: Select all
004413F6 83FA 06 CMP EDX, 6 // refinery
- Conflict with outdated parts of "Allow Intel Buildings to remain after conquest": viewtopic.php?f=294&t=3115
- sub_4C22F8 Minor_race_blg_IDs issues?
- edifice.bst issues with Excluded_empires_BitMask?
I don't know how many bugs is too many but that point is reached somewhere before however many in BotF is.

Re: beta testers needed
still need to ask what installer version? as far as I know all missing images have been fixed in version 2.0.3a (per UE integrity check)johnnyblaze wrote: ↑Tue Jul 04, 2023 6:12 pm - New issue in later rounds when "new" ships are researched, if you scroll over or try to click on (strike cruiser IV) the game immediaty crashes
what resolution did you install? (this is important)
"strike cruiser IV" Keldon? Qu'Vat? or D'Xokra?
Note; there should be a crash log with missing image name
If you are re-starting saves this could be due to 18 fleet taskforce patch, this has always been problematic patch.johnnyblaze wrote: ↑Tue Jul 04, 2023 6:12 pm - The End of turn crashing, when i restart the game and hit continue, it goes to the next turn but won't if I go back from saved game (on that turn)
