ive seen the error myself, i got around it by deleting the folder it was complaning about (in my case a kha'ak hivebase)

Deletion is defintly not a reccomended way around the problem

hey guys...

I don't know if someone has also occured this, but when I open a tab with TShips file for AP, the names of new ships are not displayed. I have the latest version and loaded a profile for AP, but they're simply not there. I already tried to copy the T file into the T dorectory in both AP and addon directories.

Somebody please respond

Thanks

is it just in the editor, have you tried it in game, it could be that the editor just isn't detecting the text but if it loads in game it is fine...remove it from the main tc directory it just needs to be in the addon directory...if you remove it try closing and reopening the editor, it will do a fresh reload of game data...

You have some mod installed - something from Kiljaden aparently - send me the url or the mod itself.

This applies for the rest of you guys as well.

Your problem was different iirc - was it you who sent me this? - the catalog has readonly attribute - just clear that attribute in Explorer and it will work.

Works for me... Anyone else having this issue?

There's a lot of troubles whit this update as I feared, but hopefully I will fix 'em...

I think this is probably the issue I'm having...

Here's a snippet of my post related to this:

Wilson-MG- wrote:The default Terran Mani is entry 384 in the TShips.pck, I copied that to a new entry at 402. The Name ID field is 20091 and derived from that field, the Name field states "String [17:20091] not found.".

That's true for a lot of the AP ships, not just the original Mani and my new one. They also only display as SS_SH_TR_XX in the side column, instead of by their names when Name radial button is selected, while non-AP ships show up by name, i.e. Cutlass, Baldric, etc.

Now that's some info to work with.

And here's your cookie: http://doubleshadow.thexuniverse.com/x3e2patch.zip

Only use for X3E2 version 2.0.18!

Unpack to X3E2 directory and overwrite the original files.
It should fix the problem with the strings and
also an issue with x2fd and invalid time values which you can experience on Vista and W7

Let me know if it works.

no, it's just a folder within my mods folder. that is why i'm so confused. the program starts when i move said folder to another directory, but i don't like this "solution".
however, since it works again now, i'll stop complaining. thank you for your time.

Only have ver 2.0.17 when did 2.0.18 get released.

Also in 2.0.17 when looking at the VFS for a TC game I'm playing It only shows the last files to be added in the last cat. Looking at the director folder only shows 29 files. Any ideas?

EDIT: Ahh found that my version had auto updated to 2.0.18 but still not showing full director folder

I have this fixed already, but keeping it to myself

I will probably release it today.

Great news doubleshadow. Looking forward to that and any other enhancements

doubleshadow · Post by **doubleshadow** » Tue, 3. Jan 12, 20:13

New update available - 2.0.19

It should fix all the above mentioned problems.
However the issue with "Node 'xxx' already exists, but it is a file" while starting X3E2 still remains. I'm pretty sure I know the reason, but there is no easy fix.

How to get that update, please? I'm still on 2.0.17 and every time I try to update, it says ping timeout doubleshadow.wz.cz (its ok on doubleshadow.thexuniverse.com, but seems there is no update there). Looks like something/somebody blocking my IP, because behind proxy I can get to x3e2.doubleshadow.wz.cz, but its 2.0.17 there...

Any suggestions?

Oh, and I already contacted AT&T and they say that they do not block ANY domains...

Thanks

Can you send me a screenshot of the updater? Press the Update and once finished, capture both the top and bottom parts of the window, so I can see what's going on. My e-mail is here: http://x-tools.doubleshadow.wz.cz/contact

@ doubleshadow:

E-mail sent.

Had a prob updating the exe but a reload fixed that. All functions working well and I can see my full director folder now

Thanks again doubleshadow...

New version 2.0.20 available both as automatic update and standalone intaller:

My site
The X Universe mirror

It is compilation of all the X3AP related fixes I've released recently + It also fixes issues with non working Internet update some people were noticing. It looks like the American Internet providers aren't so bad after all...

It was just my problem.

Are you using the Wormhole gate mod? I had the same issue. It was due to the cat being set to read-only. If you change that, you can load the editor again. Worked for me at least.
