Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

Well now, I have some good news, and I have some really bad news. But first I need to ask a favor.

Can any one here provide me with a good looking, portrait of an orion, and not a green slave girl? (Not that I woudn't mind one. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif ) Right now I have just a recolored portrait from another race and it is to be frank hidiously ugly.

Now for the bad news. Well go read the web page.

Arrrgghhh! Atrocities, you're a great guy! come back and post around here again, please... I've had very little time this semester, but have found your mod to be great. Even more importantly, you're a great guy. Stick around for those of us that are nice guys too.

I think he'll be back in a few days. I think he is just taking a sabbatical from the web for a while to focus on RL things. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

He had better be back!

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

He was quite upset, you never know.

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

1.3.5 is up on his site!

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

What was he upset about?

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">You'll have to ask him, and don't expect a reply from him here either.

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

just downloaded 1.3.5 STM already have problems Orion race can't download dreadnoughts, Tholian race can't download battleships anybody else check?

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

I have the STMv135Patch. It works fine. When did the problem occur? What Version of the STMv135Patch did you download? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">What do you mean by can't download?

The original Version of this mod, the one by Captain Kowk, had many races with specific ship sizes. That being said, the Tholian race does not have Battleships in this mod.

As for the Orions, they do have Dreadnoughts. I am looking at the Vehicle Size file now. (Pirate Ship Construction 8 = Dreadnoughts)

I have been playing the mod now for a few hours and I have to say that it is by far one of the better mods. I really like the fact that a tech-tree was included for all of the major races. However, the Orions do not have a tech tree, or at atleast I could not find one. Perhaps that will come later.

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

what I meant was the program would not "load" certain things, just tried again wouldn't load Orion starbase

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

just tried again wouldn't load Fuidic race portait file or dreadnought .bmp

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

Check your PICTURES/RACE folder and see if you have all the images. Sounds like you don't have the BMP's for these races.

What Version of the mod did you download? I think there is one that is data only, and has no BMP's included.
If you do not have them, then you will need to download them from www.newageshipyard.cjb.net or www.galileo.spaceports.com/~william/main.htm You will want the Neo Standard Version if they are offered for the Star Trek races.

The orions are offered on the www.astmod.com/startrek/stm.htm page

You should email the mod creator and ask him for help as well.

Also you will need to get the latest Version of the Image Mod. I think those are available from www.spaceempires.net/home

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

Your problem may be caused by having the Star Trek Mod inside a folder called the Star Trek Mod. If I am right, you could be trying to play the patch, not the mod. As in you have one to many folder layers. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Don't you hate that. Sometimes I have to go through 2 or 3 folders before you get to the data. What I do then is rename the original folder, then cut the actual folder I need and paste it where I need it.

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

got in touch with Atrocites, straighten everything out for me.You all where right had patch of 1.3.5 not whole download

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

As I sat at *work* today all I could think about was what I was going to do about the Dominion invading my lower system. This game is far to addictive and should come with a warning.

[b]PLAYING THIS GAME WILL ALTER YOUR PERCEPTION ON LIFE, COST YOU YOUR JOB, CONSUME ALL OF YOUR WAKING FREE TIME, RESULT IN DIVORCE, AND TURN YOU INTO A "JUST ONE MORE TURN" JUNKIE."

BTW, nice job on this latest patch. The mod is appears to be well blanced thus far, and the game pace is slower than normal SEIV, the AI is good, and the game in general is both challenging, as well as fun.

What can we expect in the next patch.

Oh, a bug. The pirate speech file needs some work.

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

Next patch? After the wife leaves I will pour over the AI to try and improve slash personalize it for each race. I will need something to keep my mind away from depression and reclusion so that will become my new focus, along with GT3.

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Started playing the new 1.35 game Last night. The only thing I noticed was that the launcher had the game as 1.32, and when the initial screen came up, it was still saying Version 1.34. Now, I d/l the 1.35 lite file, as I have everything prior to that. I forgot to check to see if the Orions were around, but I'm assuming I'm playing the full Version of 1.35. And I know what you mean about that warning label. I stayed up way too late playing this game Last night, and had to use a huge force of will to go to bed, as I have to get up at 4:30 am.

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

For 1.3.5 to work you have to copy it over a fresh Version of the base or install the full Version from scratch. It sounds to me like you just copied and pasted the upgrade onto the 1.3.4 Version. Best way to do it is just to get the 1.3.5 Full and remove the older Version before hand.

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

After I read you post I was curious so I downloaded all three Version, and they all had the correct info. They all have the new splash screen, 1.3.5, and the mod info Version was 1.3.5 as well. In fact I noticed that the mod info details had changed as well. I like this new Version better than the old one.

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

Ah I figured out the problem you are having. The mod info file is included with the mod in the mod, and you will have to copy the modinfo.txt file and paste it over the old one in the SEIV directory.

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

All three will have the correct info, but you can’t lay the “lite” Version on top of an old Version. Atrocities has apologized many times for this and for having to restart games due to the problem. Just thumb threw the Posts below, you will see his comments a page or two back(?).

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

Sorry to read that your wife is leaving you PES. Like I said, this game should come with a warning label.

Good luck to you.

darn, I was afraid of something like that. I just didn't want to d/l the whole 17 meg file. Guess I'll have to.

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

Geoschmo has uploaded the Star Trek Mod to PBW althought it is named Atrocities Star Trek Mod Version 1.3.5.

There was some confusion over the name and although I hope he can find the time to change it to Star Trek Mod ver 1.3.5, I don't want to seem like a pain in the ***.

I will be taking a break from things, including all of my PBW games as I make some adjstments in my life. Life has a funny way of telling you things, and I just learned that there is no God, that justice is only awarded to the rich and those who can aford it. And nice people do finish Last, and they also have to pay the bill for all of the other runners. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon8.gif I wish you all well with the your games and such, and hope to be back soon.

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

I noticed that there are a couple of STM games being started at PBW. To the game hosts and players, if you could please let me know if you run into any bugs, I would be greatful.

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

I have started a second Star Trek Mod Game for those in who have been following this thread. If you are not in any of the previous two games, and still want to play, please post here.

If you are in the other two games and want to play in this one, please post indicating that you are in one of the other games, and if we do not get enough new players, we will go on a first come first serve basis.

New players pick your race on a first come first serve basis.

Oh ya, I will decide wether or not I am playing depending upon how many people sign up for the game. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Back up players, please pick your desired race, and a second.

Thanks.

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Ok, if you don't get enough new players in your new game I'd join. I'm already in the original Star Trek Mod game. If I end up joining, I'd take the Borg as my first choice, Dominion as second.

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

New Players Only. (If your not in either of the STM games that I am running at the moment and want to be in this one, please post.)

8472 - Open
Borg - Open
Breen - Open
Cardassian - Open
Dominion - Open
Federation - Open
Ferengi - Open
Klingon - Open
Orions - Open
Romulan - Open
Tholian - Open

(Any eight of the above and we have a go)

Alternates

8472 - None
Borg - Renegade 13
Breen - None
Cardassians - None
Dominion - None - Renegade 13 (2nd)

The spots will be open for a couple of days. Then we go to the first come first serve alternates. I will play if we do not have enough players.

You can also email me if you want to join the game and are not currently in one of the other two games. IF you want to be an alternate for this game that is great.

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">If you are missing nebula, just download the latest FQM mod and copy over the nebula pictures. I might have missed one or two when I went through the data. I did not want to include them in the mod because that would have increased the size of the mod. So I removed any referance to the FQM extra nebulas and replaced them with exsisting ones. I may have missed one or two. I hope I didn't, but if I did, just do as I said, and copy over the nebula from FQM (latest) to same folder in your STM mod. If the folder does not exsist, make one.

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

I am dropping the previous restrictions, it is now first come first serve open to any one who signs up. If you sign up here, just going join as well at PBW. Once we have 8 players we will start the game.

8472 - Nodachi
Borg - Renegade 13
Breen - Open
Cardassian - Open
Dominion - Open
Federation - Open
Ferengi - Atrocities
Klingon - Open
Orions - Open
Romulan - Open
Tholian - Open
