[UPDATE] *XTM PATCH .7.2 RELEASED!* [MOD/AL-plugin]

I have installed the XTM .7a Mod, updated the Scorp Map to show all the sectors etc and have found .....

Spoiler

Show

two so called Player sectors to the West of Eighteen Billion, I am guessing that this is this plot related ?, if so how do I open these sectors up?, is there a broken gate to the West of 18billion that requires fixing haven't looked yet?. Sectors are named Memorial of Light & Last Frontier, the question basically comes up as I am looking at an updated X3 map for this mod and these sectors aren't mapped, yet on Scorps Map they are owned by 'Player'.
Many thanks

Last Frontier is like the Kha'ak sectors--you need to do a particular plotline to get the co-ordinates of it, and you can then only get to it using jumpdrive. No idea about the other one.

I found an "Unknown M6" flying around in one of the new Xenon sectors (it turns out to be a Sohnen ship) and it was red to me, so I attacked and captured it (using the Bail Extensions).

Thing is, I'm wondering if this is supposed to be part of a mssion, or something else it is used for that I never got? And does it affect the future of any missions I might get later?

I already did the part with the Sohnen ship in Maelstrom and got him on his way. I don't know what comes after that, though.

I need to find a way to get 5 nvidium or what ever the stuff is called without mining the Kha'ak home world...

Any way to get this without mining? It must be from the Kha'ak home world.

Stay safe!

There should be a few Nividium asteroids scattered around. Like the ones you had to scan, if you want it to get your PHQ.

Try the unknown sector next to Xenon 534, 3 nividium asteroids there.

Is this one of Bala Gi's Quest? use MDS (Moble Drilling System) and Ore Collector. IIRC you don't have to go to Kha'ak home world to collect Nividium, you'll find some in...

Rolk's Fate and one other sector (i can't remember though)

No, this is an XTM quest, not Bala Gi. Moving it to the appropriate thread.

Hansaw · Post by **Hansaw** » Sat, 14. Jul 07, 22:28

OK thanks Pjknibbs I was just about to ask what quest this is lol.

And for all that seem to have missed my POINT !!! I didn't want to mine for it.

I have only just started the game about 19 hours play and no clue yet what the hell I am doing but got a message after switching stuff on in the AI or something and went after the ship found it and it needs help.

I have been mostly exploring and I have not even got 1 station set up yet waiting on buying a Mammoth 1st then kiting it out and start my empire but until my Traders get me the rep I was just bumming about looking for things to do in my free claimed Mako.

So again is there anywhere that I can get Nvidium from Kha'ak home world without mining for it?

Thanks for all your help and input so far.

Stay safe!

I don't know of a way of gettinv nividium without mining it......sorry. Well there are LV's cheat scripts, but I think you would have to mine.

If you have something bigger than an M3, it's very easy to mine personally with just a hornet missle or 2 and the ore collector.+

Hansaw · Post by **Hansaw** » Sat, 14. Jul 07, 23:20

Thanks Jiggaman.

However I notice XTM.7.2 Patch so I may be patching and restarting.

If I do restart is there anything I should or should not do as far as missions go? By that I mean taking missions too early on. Like the unknown ship that you have to do missions for. Do all the missions wait for you or have you got time limits in the game like that Auction for that Player sector that I always wanted so bad?

Stay safe!

Edit: Ignore this post, just me not un-installing before installing new XTM MOD + Patch.

Sorry!

OK BIG problem.

I tryed loading the new XTM.7.2 Patch but The manager screams at me that its an older version then .71b.

Did the version numbering get screwed up?

Stay safe!

Uninstall the old script files, then try installing the patch.

I have a problem i dont know if it was intended or not, none of the Earth fleet ships are capable of using their own weapons after i installed XTM, was that something screwy with the install? Or just not added in their specs for XTM?(by their own weapons i mean the electro-magnetics)

Also with those really cool missile trails you guys have made are you going to add any sort of NUKE that only your M0's can carry?
Would be cool to have a huge slow moving missile capable of making a serious dent in stations.

Also is there any way to retain the vanilla after effects of missile strikes with your custom explosions? I.E the fire spot left over that burns for 5-10 seconds It makes the capital battles fun when you can see that sort of lasting damage.

P.S i LOVE your flak sounds, I no longer have to play the game muted when flying a colossus!

EMPs need installing manually via the HUD.

Or via the combat menu.

OK just a quick question:

I have loaded XTM+.7.2 Patch and have restarted in custom game as Terran Flight leader or something.

Are there any disadvantages to playing the XTM starting posisons to the Xunivers ones. By this I mean do I still get to do all the missions like all the Belagi missions as well as all the XTM ones?

Also in the AI I have turned some things to yes that were at no. As I was playing as Terrans in a non plot game I switched them on too. Should have I?

Can anyone explain to me what all the options do and give you game wise. I have no idea what the option Set SY locations to fixed defaults is?

Thanks for any info you can give.

BTW my game still says 0.7a on the loading screen.

Stay safe!

I can't dock any ships at the Pirate Reaver (great model btw).

I've tried M3, M5 and TS.

Can anyone tell me which ships are dockable with the Reaver?

Osiris_sam · Post by **Osiris_sam** » Sun, 15. Jul 07, 15:06

you should ask on the xtm forums;here
the people here will have a much better chance of helping you

pjknibbs · Post by **pjknibbs** » Sun, 15. Jul 07, 17:43

If you play an XTM start games then Bala Gi missions are not available, although you can buy the PHQ and the Hyperion from normal shipyards in that case. For the rest, try asking on the XTM forums.

Fnarf, the Reaver can definitely dock at least one M6 because I did it. I don't know what the second docking bay can take--might well be another M6, but I didn't have one available to test this!
