[XTM - TECH. SUPPORT] Technical support for Xtended Mod

[stonedzen]

strike my last questions, i gound the information on combining mods...thanks for the help!

[Jirten]

Is the www.thexuniverse.com site working for anyone? I am trying to download and install XTM. I have download the mod, xtendedmodscripts+patch-0.7.3.spk and thexpluginmanager but I can't find the install guide. Is the install guide available anywhere else? Thanks in advance.

[dains]

Yes, I'm getting 404 errors from thexuniverse.com and .de. I was just trying to download the XTended trailer. Hope they reup their domains soon lol.

[Liath]

looks like their server has nothing on it... not even the 404 not found error docs. perhaps just maintenance... I hope

A bit more info on TXU's servers for everyone.

Last night our hosts servers had a hacker attack them. To protect the servers they have all currently been shut down (And there are a few hundred of them).

After the security breach has been fixed, they will be starting the servers up again one by one. A few are reported to have had total data loss before the servers were shut down, while others have only partial data loss.

So worst case scenario is that once our server is restarted, TXU will have to be totally reinstalled. Fortunately the forum had a backup done on it only 4 hours beforehand, so if there is any data loss we can restore the backup.

If this does happen, some posts will have gone missing as they will have been made after the backup. Unfortunately there is nothing we will be able to do about this.

Hopefully when our server is restarted, we are one of the lucky ones that had no loss of data. We can only wait and wonder for now though.

Thanks for the info. I was starting to get quite worried, I was trying to remember when I last backed up the XTM-P documents

Sorry to hear that it was some malicious hacker though, if it had been hardware or software it would be no better, but to know it was done purely by someone who wanted to annoy and frustrate other people does put a bitter edge to it

Hi everyone.

After flying around exploring, I found out there most sectors were ship-emtpy. There were stations but none of the freighters trading around. Core sectors usually had a good military presence, but there were very few NPC traders when I first started. This is about 2 in-game days.

Tried to google around and found this thread:

http://www.thexuniverse.com/forum/proje ... ssueid=291

There is a link to another thread on TXU (think its German) which may resolve this. Unfortunately, TXU is still down and I can only rely on the cached copy.

Anyone got a fix to this?
Thanks.

I once had X3 Xtended mod and now I cannot find it anywhere, if I go to a link I get a page not found error. Can someone please direct me to a working place to download Xtended and whatever else I may need for it. Thank you.

Try checking the first post on the first page of this thread...most of what you sink is linked from there or on that post.

Thanks!

My game is almost totally void of AL freighters. There are almost none, and they don't buy or sell products at my factories even when the selling prices are set to lowest possible and buying prices are high. AL factories just sit there and apparently quit producing once they are out of resources.

Is there a script or scripts that make AL freighters work I could check? Does the extended mod cause a lack of AL freighters?

Having virtually no AL freighters makes it impossible to make money other than with the few ships that sell my products and with the UTs I have. That can't be right.

This will likely be moved to the XTM thread. Anyway on to your problem. This sounds like the JobWings and/or Jobs file did not execute properly. I believe the only way to fix it is to start a new game.

This will likely be moved to the XTM thread.

Does it have to do with the XTM? I'm afraid it will be ignored now that it has been moved or turn out unsolvable since it might not have anything to do with XTM.

Anyway on to your problem. This sounds like the JobWings and/or Jobs file did not execute properly. I believe the only way to fix it is to start a new game.

But I don't want to start a new game and have to work another two weeks until I get a half way decent ship and a few factories and have explored some sectors and gained some standing. Even if there's a script that allows you to give yourself money, that would only help a little.

If I start a new game, how would I know if the AL freighters are going to work? I've tried a new game and flew from Argon Prime to Kingdom end, and I have seen more AL freighters on that short trip than in the two weeks since I started playing X3. But when I started, I didn't pay attention to AL freighters, so they might have been there but got destroyed or dispersed all over the universe after a while. If that happens again, I'd end up with the same problem again.

Hi


I have a problem with the white "blob" that represents gamma ppc fire in X3 Reunion + XTM. When I first load up my game, and open fire with gamma ppc I can see clearly a stream of white bullets heading off into the distance. Similarly any enemy gppc fire is easy to see as well.

However, after a few minutes the gamma ppc "blob" becomes distinctly less clear to see - its gone from a bright white to a sort of blue colour which I can only make out if I zoom in on the scenary using video goggles. This makes dodging incoming enemy fire very difficult! It seems that the gppc bullet sprite is switching from "bright" to "almost invisible" after a couple of minutes play.

Does anyone have any clues on how to resolve this issue? Is it a graphics problem?

I recently replaced my motherboard and CPU and reinstalled everything. On my previous system this issue never occurred with X3R or XTM.

Thanks

Hello,

I have installed the XTM mod, version 0.7a, and scripts version 0.7.3. When I start the game, it works good for a second, then freezes my screen and computer. I have no other scripts enabled, neither do I have any other mods installed. Thanks for any help in advance.

Hey,
I decided it was time to upgrade my xp64 machine to Win 7 so I backed up all my save games from the X3:R+XTM install and reformatted. after I had reinstalled the drivers and all other critical software I reinstalled X3, installed the 2.5 patch, and then XTM.

first problem i had is that the game was't running correctly on my dell 24" because the launcher wasn't detecting the correct resolution, it was pointing to 1920x1080 instead 1920x1200. so i messed with the display settings to isolate the 24 and then ran the game and it finally detected the 1200 res. i xferred back all my savegames and loaded up the game. When I try to load my saves it will load [im guessing to the point where it inits the engine and im in the game] and the game just closes. no error msg, nothing.

is there a reason this may be happening?
also the xtm install for some reason is now overwriting some files and before i don't remember it doing that.

thanks for the help.

I've had no problems with XTM or X3:R on my Vista 64 machine, but I can't say I've had any experience with the Windows 7 RC.

[Lord Dakier]

I've looked for it and none of the links have worked at all. One of them just kept loading the webpage. Anyone got a working link for this?
