Mods / Re: [0.95a-RC15] Fast Engine Rendering - Combat FPS Booster

« on: September 18, 2021, 11:20:01 PM »

Is there any reason why this mod isn't flagged as "utility: true" in mod_info.json?

If so, then removing the mod (once a save game is created with it enabled) isn't an option?

shoi, is there any functional difference between 1.5.2d (from your Github) and the linked 1.5.2c in this thread, that would require updating?

There's a short changelog on said Github, but still sparse on overall details.

I think you have me confused with someone else

You're correct; it was actually the dev behind YRXP... my bad.

Lack of sleep plus long, hot day equals slow brain and poor memory.

That's more or less what's happening.

shoi, what happened to that preview vid with a pilotable copyright-bait Macross-inspired variable fighter?

It's no longer on your Youtube channel, either.

Hi. My game is crashing while i using a Metafalica's Phira cannons in the 1st mode (energy shells), all other modes works fine. Not sure if it is a mod bug or just a incompatibility with anoter mods...


There's a error message from game log:

Are you using the latest version of MagicLib? If in doubt, re-download from the following thread:

I see a mecha's remotely-controlled/-guided fist and immediately think ROCKETO PUNCH!! Alternatively, BOOSTED KNUCKLE.

EDIT: All it needs is an optional drill bit for maximum armor penetration, and we're set for a (non-Super) Grungust Type-3.

For me I think Wing Commander 4: Prophecy.

FYI, Prophecy was Wing Commander 5; WC4 was The Price of Freedom, showcasing the downfall of Geoffrey Tolwyn, as portrayed by the magnificent SOB that is Malcolm McDowell...

...and happens to feature Mark Hamill as Luke Skywalker Christopher 'Maverick' Blair and Tom Wilson as Biff Tannen Todd 'Maniac' Marshall in the 'starring as' / main character roles.

Electronic Superiority is retired (functionally replaced)

So, wait... for those of us players Captains who already have the 'Electronic Superiority' hullmod installed on their carriers...

Is the old 'ecmfighters' id (from hull_mods.csv) being re-used for the Support Carrier Core?

Or is it now functionally blank (needs to be manually removed), then adding the Support Carrier Core?

Yeah, I know it got re-colored into the final boss for Ship/Weapons Pack's Arcade Mode mission...

Regarding their content, is there a use for sigma matter or datacores? If it's supposed to be a secret, just give a vague answer and I'll figure it out myself.

Not at the moment, but eventually there will be.

Speaking of which... what is the (black market) value of the various pieces of Sigma matter supposed to be, before being zeroed out in the latest version(s)?

I figure that I'd either edit the appropriate .csv files, else just sell them off then add the credits via Console Commands...

Modding / Re: Misc modding questions that are too minor to warrant their own thread

Right, only had time to get back to starsector and mini modding but I ran into a snag.

So I started as simple as possible, I made a entry in hullmods.csv. I copied everything from the augmented engine entry into a new line, then changed the name, id and the cost. I loaded up star sector with console command mod, loaded in the new 'technology overhaul' hull mod and fitted it on a ship. This works fine as I now had a +2 burn mod that gave me hullpoints to play with (negative cost).

Now I run into a snag, I made a copy of the AugmentedEngines.java and renamed it into AugmentedEngines2.java ( I want to increase the max burn bonus to 4 without effecting the 'vanilla' engine hullmod). I changed the entry in hullmods.csv to point to this new file and I tried loading star sector. It crashed and I got this in the error log.

Could anyone tell me where I went wrong? I must have missed a step somewhere for adding a hull mod. Unfortunately the info I got from searching this forum only showed how to edit a pre-existing hullmod and not make a one from scratch. Thanks

Did you also change line #7 of your newly-copied AugmentedEngines2.java from:

public class AugmentedEngines extends BaseLogisticsHullMod {

to

public class AugmentedEngines2 extends BaseLogisticsHullMod {

as part of your copy-pasting?

Namely these lines from the gamelog gave me the clue:
'Caused by: javax.xml.stream.XMLStreamException: ParseError at [row,col]:[477107,80]
Message: An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0x{2}) was found in the value of attribute "{1}" and element is "13".'

So, I've opened up the savegame with Notepad and found the corresponding line causing the error:
'<savedVariant z="197766" hId="FOB_gnophkeh" v="18" c="0" hVId="70a6ae_23" vDN="Standard" s="REFIT" mAAW="true" gV="false">'

And that's basically it - that little '' was crashing my game. All you have to do to fix YOUR savefile is to use the search&change option (ctrl+h) and choose the  as item to search leaving the 'change to' line empty. Click change all and save. Enjoy!

To prevent that error from happening again though, you have to edit '\data\variants\FOB_gnophkeh_Standard.variant' and change:

"displayName": "\u0013Standard"

to

"displayName": "Standard"

Otherwise, you will eventually get that save-breaking error again, as it is one of the ship variants used by the Borken mod.

Temporal Shell is probably a very bad idea (tm) because of how it interacts with beams.

Link(s) to relevant discussion threads/posts? I am morbidly curious...

What is T?

(Knights) Templar by Dark.Revenant; not updated for v0.9x or newer.

And even if it were, its 4 ships (one for each size class) would still be stupidly OP.
