Mine seems to have been trigered by discovering more areas of a particular race. So far, I've had an Argon and Paranid plot kick on.

Hi xcom,

i have a question and cant finde the answer by searching

Where can i buy marines in xtc 2.0? military outposts dont have

thanks

Try

Spoiler

Show

Sirius II and Corona Borealis

[yokogal]

I think is useless to get marine nowday unless they fix the boarding extension thingie. Any the ship that able to use boarding pod arent much useful too cause mostly they too slow or bloody slow to turn or have no good gun to make the enemy ship stay below 5-10%. If u use AI ship to help u also not very useful cos either they cant keep the enemy ship shield below 10% or they overkill

Any chance on a new feature list for version 2? Just a few bullet points on the major features.

Isn't that info in the release note for 2.0 on page 1 (2nd post)?

hello again

ive was nosing around the ships in Xtended and noticed some of my old X2 favorites are back from the dead, which is sooo cool, so i went ahead and cheated em ingame for testing and found my 2 favs the retrofitted centaur and retrofitted nova seem to have a issue with the cockpit cameras being in the middle of the ships therefore making flying em ....difficult at best,

is this a known bug?, will it be fixed in upcomming patch/version?

also is there gonna be a scrapyard where u can buy old ships like there was in Xtended for reunion?

really loved that feature

any advice /help on this matter would be really cool , many thanks in advance

That info is for the old version, not the new 2.0. The list of features and manual for 2.0 is yet to be released

[KRM398]

Just put together a new game with the 2.0 and TC, when I got it running and everything looks good, I went to see about adding the marine repairs that I use for every game. When I tried a box popped up saying that the directory is locked and can not be nodded, you may have to change the directory permissions to do it...how exactly do i do that? Maybe I'm just tired but I'm asking before I screw something up trying to figure it out.

[Killjaeden]

is this a known bug?

it's not a bug, we didn't include them ingame by intention, we wanted to, but they didn't meet our quality demands, so we dropped the idea.

oh i see, thanks for the info, most helpfull

[KRM398]

never mind...hehe wok up this morning and knew right away how to fix it, moved from the protected program folder to my second hd, and now things are working right. Sorry for the confusion.

[Mechanis]

I've been testing, and I got to Capital ships (Finally!) and...

am I going crazy, or are the mega-pretty engine-flames missing from larger ships? did I miss an option in the installer or something?

some of the ships in the Xpak are built for them, and look... a tad silly without.

Capital ships cant have engine flames... because they are too slow, and the ''flame'' dissipates before leaving a trail behind the ship

[Mechanis]

I mean things like this. note the large flame behind that there olly? those no longer appear in-game, even though the objects for them are still in the scene files. I'm wondering why that is- essentually, is that a bug, or not, and if not, how can it be re-enabled?

They appear when the ship is moving...

[briggsy10]

I've been looking around but can't seem to find an answer anywhere - I recently installed the new X-Tended 2.0 but have been suffering from CTDs on entering sectors.

It's extremely inconsistent though, as it's not in specific sectors, nor every time I travel between sectors. It's as if there's a random chance of a CTD every time I use gates (haven't tried jumping yet!). Getting extremely frustrating having to reload the game every 1/3 times or so I try to travel anywhere.

Anyone else had a similar issue?

hi, thanks for bringing this great mod to us.. i have a question, if someone would like to add ships to the shipyards and the warfs in the mod, how can this be done..? i have been unsuccesfull so far..

i have been tampering with a script that came with Axeface's ships..

im trying to add the Argon Callisto Advanced TS class ship to the Argon Warf..

here is the original script: (dont mind the Terran Baldric Tanker in the script, the baldric is on the index spot where the Lusca is supposed to be i think..)

Code: Select all

load text: id=8458
$race = [Boron]
$ship = {Terran Baldric Tanker}

$psec = [PLAYERSHIP]-> get sector
$i = 0
while $i < 40
$dock = find station in galaxy: startsector=$psec class or type=[Shipyard] race=$race flags=[Find.Random] refobj=null serial=null max.jumps=100
if $dock-> exists
$dock-> add product to factory or dock: $ship
$c = $dock-> get amount of ware $ship in cargo bay
skip if $c > 0
= $dock-> add 1 units of $ship
end
inc $i
end

return null

this is what i got so far:

Code: Select all

$race = [Argon]
$ship = {Argon Callisto Advanced}

$psec = [PLAYERSHIP]-> get sector
$i = 0
while $i < 40
$dock = find station in galaxy: startsector=$psec class or type={Neutral Race Federal Argon Wharf} race=$race flags=[Find.Random] refobj=null serial=null max.jumps=100
if $dock-> exists
$dock-> add product to factory or dock: $ship
$c = $dock-> get amount of ware $ship in cargo bay
skip if $c > 0
= $dock-> add 1 units of $ship
end
inc $i
end

return null

its not working.. can anyone tell me whats wrong..? i have deleted the load text command as i dont think i need to load any texts for this.. i added the ship names to 7211-L044 (one of the textfiles that come with Xtended, its already loading).. the ship name shows up ingame fine.. i changed the [SHIPYARD] to {Neutral Race Federal Argon Wharf} to specify which station to add the ship to, but i guess there is something wrong with it.. should i refer to the Argon Warf in some other way..?


EDIT:

i have tried something else.. didnt work either tho..

Code: Select all

$race = [Argon]
$ship = {Argon Callisto Advanced}
$dock = {Neutral Race Federal Argon Wharf}

$psec = [PLAYERSHIP]-> get sector
$i = 0
while $i < 40
$dock = find station in galaxy: startsector=$psec class or type=$dock race=$race flags=[Find.Random] refobj=null serial=null max.jumps=100
if $dock-> exists
$dock-> add product to factory or dock: $ship
$c = $dock-> get amount of ware $ship in cargo bay
skip if $c > 0
= $dock-> add 1 units of $ship
end
inc $i
end

return null

i bet its got something to do with the $dock already being used in the script..

perhaps i have to change $race = [Argon] to $race = [Neutral] since the Argon Warf is of Neutral race in the TDocks file..?

thanks

PS: sry if this is not the place for this question..

I've progressed a bit further with this - the crash log seemed to suggest issues starting after attempting to change/re-start music tracks upon sector entry. I turned music volume down to 0 and have had no crash since then! Only been a short time, so not fully confirmed yet, but seems encouraging.

I'm guessing this means I have one or more damaged/corrupt music files, although not a clue which ones. Anyone else had the same issue and have any idea how to fix this?

It's not exactly terrible having to play without any music, but it is of course nicer to be able to have it turned on.

That's going to add that ship to random stations. Possibly the same one.

Your best best it to edit the galaxy map and add this ship to the ship yards you'd like. If you can't handle a restart, just make a script that has a station as an argument, and add the ship to that station. Maybe another arument for shiptype

Code: Select all

arg1: $station, Var/Station, Station 
arg2: $shiptype, Var/Ship Type, Ship type


$station> add product to factory or dock: $shiptype
= $station-> add 1 units of $shiptype
