Is this a 1.35 bug?
 
Ok. I'm starting a new game (not quickstart)with the TDM-Modpack 1.61, and I just installed SE4 v1.35. I add existing empire (mine). All the other empires were random computer choices (high # thereof).

I click begin game.

Immediately I get a message saying, and I quote:

Unknown value "Political Savy" for Race Opt 2
Characteristic 3 type in record "Abbidon".

Unknown value "Political Savy" for Race Opt 3
Characteristic 3 type in record "Abbidon".

end quote.


I've never seen this error before loading 1.35. However, I don't recall ever encountering the Abbidon, either. Soooo.....

Ummm....

HUH?

Any helpful hints out there?

As to the AI files for the change to the current patch(1.35) the changes are mostly in the spelling/syntax. Savy has been changed to 'Savvy' in the General AI file, and in the Design Creations file the reference to 'Phased-Shiled Generation' is now 'Phased Shield Generation' (no hyphen), and in the 'fighter' part of the creation the reference to 'Combat Sensors' is now replaced with 'Combat To Hit Offense Plus' (it IS case sensitive).....these are the only changes I know of so far. Hope it helps.

KOOL! you just answered my question, and you didn't even reply to my post!!! (I got the quote from a different thread) After I installed 1.35, I got errors about all three of those things! So, um, any ideas of how to fix them?

Go the the files indicated and change the text according to the error message: remove the hyphen in "Phased-Shields", change "combat sensor" to "Combat To Hit Offense Plus" and so on. That's all! And don't be afraid the game is not crashed in spite of the error message. In fact these errors have been there for a long time, but now the game is reporting them so we can fix it.

I had that exact same problem with Rage Collective. The errors were in the _AI_DesignCreation file. The Rage is the only one that I have noticed it in so far.

*blush*

Or you could fix it by installing TDM Modpack v1.71, as I discovered when I looked in the mod section....
