Re: Eclipse Mod 1.0 Full - Crashing Win98
 

I have some problems when I take "Sparse Maze" type quadrant.
All systems have same type nebula. No stars and only planets are homeworlds. Nebula properties are "LV 1 advanced scanning required to see in this nebula.

Is it me or are ships designed to move very fast!?

Re: Eclipse Mod 1.0 Full - Crashing Win98
 

I made traveling easier and faster. Of course you cant go too fast without burning out your supplies. I wanted the distance you can go to be based largely on your supply limit rather than engine speed. However I've had a hard time trying to balance out the speed vs supply burn ratio. Newer engines are supposed to be faster and more effecient but i dont want them overpowered. At least not until the end. I plan on doing some revisions to the engines in the next patch.

[EDIT] Oh, and I have no clue about the map problem. I ported over Fyrons quadrants so I didn't make them. I have yet to try a maze map myself.

It is a perpetually reoccuring issue. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Strange. Number of system types dropped to 1... Open Eclipse\Data\QuadrantTypes.txt, search for the Sparse Maze entry, and change

Number of System Types := 1

to

Number of System Types := 117

Well, I've done most of the files, but haven't finished reformatting the planets yet, which will take some time. I'll let you know if this works. If it does, I might send it all back to you to update files for Win98 folks.

Re: Eclipse Mod 1.0 Full
 

Which ones? Have you downloaded the latest version?

Re: Eclipse Mod 1.0 Full
 

This is an issue with all old versions of the FQM. It has been spotted several times before. I believe it has been fixed in the latest version... is it Fyron?

Re: Eclipse Mod 1.0 Full
 

It is a bug in the latest released version.
