[Guide] The TC Main Plot Walkthroughs.
Moderator: Moderators for English X Forum
Ok, I dont really want todo this mision. However I have been told that I need to complete it to get to the Aldrin system. And I need to get there as it has a ship I need. So looking at the guide it says I need to goto the Omicron Lyrae system. I have gone there. The guide says I should get hailed and asked to guard some ships. this has not happened. And I have looked around in space thinking I might need to initiate the convo. however there is noone offering a mission to protect the convoy. And now I have been sitting here for about an hour, and at times wth speed increased to 1000x. but there is no mission offer to excort. Help i am trying to get to Aldrin.
FYI I started as the custom game x-niverse race if that makes a difference.

Hello, the problem here is indeed the "Custom game" in that start all of the plots are disabled if I recall correctly.
Not sure, either 1. its unlocked and you just need to find a route there.
OR
2. its locked permanently in that game start.
if the first case then you'll just have to find a map on how to get there, but if its the second you'll have to restart the game with a start that enables plots.
(I'll try dig up more info on it.)
Edit: Heres what I found.
From a post entitled " X3:TC How do I enter Aldrin in a custom game?"
So apparently you can script in a way to enter Aldrin. hope this helped.

There exists a script that activates plots for a custom game.
Custom game start is mostly for modders.

Geez and I thought custom game was just an open ended playing field where I would not be obliged to follow some stupid order. As my plans where to take over the universe. Well I dont want to start a new game as I already have 48 hours invested in this one. Guess its time to look into how to script the game so I can get to that system. Thanks for finding the info for me.

Also Ruges, there IS no real order to most of the questlines.
Exceptions:
Hub: first gate permanent realignment partially unlocks the Aldrin 2.0 missions.
Hub: Final Gate Realignment unlocks the Player HeadQuarters missions.
Finishing the Terran Missions and Operation Final Fury as wel as the first gats in the Hub fully Unlocks the Aldrin 2.0 missions.
Finishing the Aldrin 2.0 Missions unlocks the New Home Missions, which upon completion unlocks the Balance of Power missions.
By Permanent Realignment I mean that you can reset the gate of the Hub at will, which takes 2 steps to do. Read up on a walkthru for more details.

I'm not sure if I understood GD's point here. I have not completed (or even started) the Aldrin missions (have access to Aldrin through the Terran missions but have not gone to any of the subsequent Aldrin or Terran Unknown sectors), but I have already started and completed the New Home plot.Gold Dragon wrote:Finishing the Aldrin 2.0 Missions unlocks the New Home Missions, which upon completion unlocks the Balance of Power missions.

and have the sudoku puzzle and sector north - east of Zyarth's Dominion to prove it.
Can anyone else confirm that New Home is possible prior to the Aldrin missions?
Edit: hmm, should have followed Daetur's link above before posting...

'The first task is to realign the working gate pair. This will effectively stop the xenon from getting in, because your moving these gates somewhere else. However, as you get told, this is permanent, so choose wisely where to move them to. With the Hub targeted, there will be a Gate realignment option available. Select the gate you want to ‘redirect’. It takes about 2 minutes to complete.
Deliver 150,000 Teladianium.
Then 250,000 Crystals.'
Bit of a nasty surprise after delivering all the Tela...

For Final Fury mission 1 towards the end of the mission, when i have to go to Argon Sector M148 to dock at the Military Base, is it normal to see a hostile Military Outpost? I think its an Argon Military Outpost since the marines are Argon, which is weird since the other Argon structures arent hostile and i have rep 10 for Argon.
I have Race Reputation Rank 7-9 for Paranid, Split, Argon, Teladi, Boron and Reputation Rank 5 for Terran. I believe Rep Rank 7 minimum is enough? or i am suppose to get higher Rep Ranks for the commonwealth races? or get good reps with with pirate/yaki/corporations/terran?

The other outpost is related to the Terran plotline, so if you haven't completed that it's perfectly normal for that station to be hostile to you.Imari wrote:For Final Fury mission 1 towards the end of the mission, when i have to go to Argon Sector M148 to dock at the Military Base, is it normal to see a hostile Military Outpost?

For the code breaking bit I solved in myself, but it takes a long time to solve that sodoku puzzle. Unfortunately, a swarm of fighters will kill you if you stand still even in an m7, so you either have to fly around while solving the puzzle, pause the game and solve it on paper or just use cheat codes to turn on god mode. You can apparently also use a sodoku solution generator

Holy crap! you're at warlord and......yes start the main plot. its easy enough you certainly dont need a destroyer. Towards the end you'll need a cruiser definetely.
On a seperate note, in relation to the goner plot, I'm trying to dock at the priate base and cant. I hung around for ages but couldn't find anyone to hack the place. Please help
ps: does anyone know what system override software is exactly? i got it thinking it was another way to station hack but I can't seem to do anything with.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Are you trying to dock at the right base? The one in the bottom left of the map, not the middle?
Iirc you have to comm them, then they send you off for some wares to be able to dock. I could be wrong tho, it's been a while!
System Overide Software lets you claim abandoned ships without having to eject from your own. But it is illegal. Main races wont be happy campers if they scan you with that aboard...
