hey Mik I have been playing around with a vanilla install and the mod only. Also have a second install with the bonus scripts added and plugin manager ... installed in that order. All argon starts for me and work, no crash or errors, however, when both installs reach the point in the plot where you have to place the three laser towers in Albion. The jumps gates no longer function in both installs .... even trying the jump drive didn't work only the cheat of warp to sector worked, the base install is stuck in sector.....

was going to test if Imp starts/plots are in good shape ... but seems I have some hunting to do on Argon plots lines

Kinda interested in how far in the plot others have made without bugs ???

oh and by the way I forgot to mention above the plot seems to be going fine, its the gates that stopped working ... in the mod only install plot moved to next part, player is stuck in that sector with gates not working

yes they are installed in seprate partitions

Possibly very newbie question for this mod.

Post by rhohltjr »

Downloaded the 9.15 version (latest) and have installed it via the Plugin Manager. Got no indication anything was any different.

So I checked the Advanced->Verify installed files and it told me that there were some files missing from the install.
Specifically 10.dat, 12.dat, 16.dat, 22.dat and /mov/00001.dat. I checked this zipped file and there is a 10.dat and a 12.dat but no 16, 22 or /mov/0001.dat.

Anyone else have this happen to them?

I would assume that the plugin manager has placed the files in the right area.

Why would the Plugin Manager say files are missing if they are not in the zipped file?

Hey hotrod,

thanks for testing, i myself only just started the plot to check it, will see whats happenig with the laser towermission.
to see how far someone has gotten you can watch CaptinShacks videos on Youtube

he has a few episodes already with missions done, but I dont think hes done that laser tower mission yet.

Hi rhohltjr,

in the Readme are instructions how to install the mod.
DO not use a plugin manager or mod manager.

here is also a basic video tutorial on installation.

sorry for bad sound.

install the mod like a fake patch (like mik's quick video)
Then run plugin manager if you want to add scripts or try mixing other mods. (so far I have no issues done this way)
The one issue I had was in both of the Star Wars mod and in a second install of the Star Wars mod + plugin manager. The issues I had, was the jump gates around Albion sectors not working ... I logged out n back in and seem to be working so far ;)

it sounds like youre running Terran Conflict exe not Albion Prelude, and seems its installed over the Terran conflict folder not the addon folder somehow, if you did as on my instructions video you should not have that problem.
I hope you purchased both Terran Conflict and Albion Prelude, they must run together.
Nope, definitely own Albion Prelude, definitely installing it as per your instructional video.

I didn't crack it in the end. I did a complete reinstall, debunked back to vanilla and went through the instructions again from scratch. Seems to work ok this time, suggesting that despite my best efforts there was probably some remanent (an Imperial Remanent maybe!?) of something I'd done previously in my install which was incompatible. I can say with certainty though, there is still no 13.cat or dat in the download, or my addon folder, which there is in your video, you even explicitly mention it.

I'm now currently having lots of fun. You have no idea how happy I was that the Yaki sold the Provenance class, one of my favourite ships. I have easy ways to make money, but rep is so much slower so I always go to to the Yaki to get some high end stuff to kick me off with. Super happy to see that there.

Hi mike,

Some time ago we discussed the unusual appearance of ships in Unseen Domain Sector. Many Imperial ships. Both cargo and Destroyers. As well as in the neighboring area, Unknown Sector, has a couple imperial cargo ships standing by the gate.

Any idea why ?

I have also installed this as a fake patch (I have installed mods in the past with this method, xrm etc) but I can't get the ships to appear correctly? I see some weapons and areas on the map that are form the mod but not much else, every other race is pretty much running vanilla ships.

maybe a silly ? Before install did you clean out the steam apps folder. Also in your pc documents will be the egosoft folder with X3ap and in it will be, profiles, saves and logs.
If you have used plugin manager there will also be a .dat ... could this be an issue

just a point to note using the steam app to verify files doesnt remove additional mod files

I have a little question / problem.

The game freeze once I launch a game with Argon Republic peaceekeer ...
The game seems to work correctly (in the starting) with other modes (Imperial Conscript, ...)
Do you have an answer to this? Is there a big difference between these parts?

Thank you
Hey

The starts are the same universe with same NPCs it just activates different story scripts with imperials and gives a different friend foe setting.

The freezes are usually caused by heavy data ships jumping into the system, Ill be optimizing those in the near future.
Other causes could be scripts, from other mods.

Hello
Thank you for advice (addon, ...).
I lowered the graphics settings down and it seems to work fine.
It's strange, I have a good pc ... but it works now !!! :D

I just realized that the Imperial I uses the same model as the Imperial II. Since the ISD I should have some additional bridge tower superstructures I wondered if you have any plans for a replacement?

For the people who are successfully copying and the mod isn't loading in you need to have the file name as the main file. Example, X3 Terran Conflict (with the mod) and just rename the vanilla folder. I can't figure out why it's referring back to the main file, may be steam but it works fine now.

I recently installed this great mod, but any of the mod ships or equipment names are displayed, instead of it I see ReadText17-240077, and so on.
Anyone knows how to fix it?
Any help would be very apreciated.

Howdy, mikhailskatchkov! Just wanted to properly say on your thread how happy I've been with your work!

I watched CaptainShack's videos, and was amazed at how well the sector of Coruscant looks. Makes me wish my old save could be updated to go there myself!

Keep up the great work!
