Steve Schacher Posted December 19, 2001 Report Share Posted December 19, 2001 quote:Why would anyone want to save the game during a HJ? I do it a lot.It usually happens because my wife comes out of the bedroom at 1:30am saying, "What are you still doing up? You have to go to work tomorrow!"So, I save the game (in hyperspace) and shut off the computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malkuth Posted December 19, 2001 Report Share Posted December 19, 2001 All Right I give up on this game. All day Ive been trying to stay alive in this game, which I was doing great at. Only thing that just killed me for the second time today is A CTD and now my Saved game wont load. It gets stuck on Gave Loaded and stays thier, and all I can hear are sounds. I have to reboot the computer because BCM wont let my Ald,CRT,Del it closed. 4 hours of game time down the tubes. What a waste.You want the saved file Ill send it. Just tell me what to send and you will get it.Only thing different on my system is that I put the Soundblaster back in Gamer 5.1. Since XP doesnt like the cheap Onboard sound. I did a system restore back from October to get the Sys.ini cleaned up. Every works great. Latest drivers. Etc..Sucks I really was liking this game. But cant play if Im going to keep losing my save files to random crashes.Again i got the save if you want it. To prove Im not fibbing you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Im not in the gravity pull of the planet when I left HS. And if thats also the case why doesnt the Enemy ship fall into the Gravity too?Was playing all after noon and it happened again at pluto. Pain in the butt. I was not anywhere near the planet when I came out. In fact the enemy ship was Beyond the Pluto Space Station. But I did HS through it again. And ended up getting damaged again.To prove to you that you are in planets gravitational pull. Reload the game you have saved, or next time when you HJ to a ship that is close to the planet, take this steps. 1. HJ to the ship that is close to the planet. 2. While in HJ, target the planet/moon that the ship is close to. (so that you can see the distance to the planet) 3. When you exit HJ, if you are within 150 clicks or closer to the planet you will get pulled in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only are you NOT using the latest nVidia drivers for winXP, I suspect that other drivers are old as well.If you are concerned about CTDs, read the FAQ.As for the saved game, no, I'm not interested in it. If you have a CTD and the saved game won't load, its probably corrupted due to the CTD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, if your profile is out of date, well then. Everyone should update their profile when their system changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And ended up getting damaged again.I have had a similar problem like this. When I begin to slow down and exit hyper jump i checked my distance to the planet and I was over 2000 clicks from it when suddenly I was entering orbit... This only happens when I hyper jump through a planet to get to an enemy on the other side. Like he says below I learned not to hyperjump to enemys if I have to go through a planet to get to them. This has only happened to me at very rare occasions. I have had it happen to me twice so far let ya know more if it happens again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can NEVER enter a planet at 2000 clicks distance. Period. You must have been looking at your range to the target itself and NOT the planet. If you were targeting the ship, the range would NOT be of the planet because the current target is in the Tacscan and NOT the NID.Learn how to use these systems properly. Reading the relevant sections in the manual would be a good start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain McMahon Posted December 21, 2001 Report Share Posted December 21, 2001 Whenever I start BCM this message pops up:Play Cutscene Error Failed (0x80040200) in RenderFile(C:Program Files3000ADBattlecruiser Millenniumgfxavi3klogo.avi)!So whats wrong? I dunno. I tried reinstalling and the same thing happens.[ 12-21-2001: Message edited by: Mrxknown ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshB Posted December 21, 2001 Report Share Posted December 21, 2001 I just wanted to post an observation reguarding the SF marin jetpacks. My AE's jet pack is back to normal with the .3 patch. I has the original 4-point thing, but the other SF marines outfits in the game still have that half jetpack for marines on planets... No big deal, and it is always possible that I've done something wrong. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The SF Marines however use the EFM jetpack model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckthesystem Posted December 21, 2001 Report Share Posted December 21, 2001 I think i know what he's talking about. The AE has a partially rendered EF marine jetpack when in space instead of the "X" or "4-point" space marine jetpack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supreme Cmdr Posted December 21, 2001 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2001 Ah I see. No wonder mine worked, it used the proper one only in debug mode. doh!Anyway, this small 2.8MB EXE fixes this problem. Unzip to your BCM folder and overwrite the current version. I have modified and re-uploaded the 1.0.03 patch to all mirrors to contain this fix.Note. This EXE also has a updated SafeDisc digital signature for compatibility with more drives. So, be sure to backup your existing BCM.EXE first, just in case.[ 12-21-2001: Message edited by: Supreme Cmdr ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KreKol Posted December 22, 2001 Report Share Posted December 22, 2001 I will let the picture do most of the talking.I ended up cloning myself. I still have the save file. This happened in version 1.0.0.2. My AI was on the ship when he died. He got infected on a planet and went to medibay. I happened to look a little later and he was dead. The game did not end.

CommanderJohnson Posted December 22, 2001 Report Share Posted December 22, 2001 Ok, here are two problems I found yesterday:I slammed my firestorm into the surface of a planet after launching all my shuttles, and was heavily damaged. I got out of the ship, and ordered a shuttle to land near me. It landed. I end up being able to walk through the front half of the ship, and are unable to land on top of it with jetpack. I get into the shuttle fine, then I try flying my shuttle into the firestorm. I keep flying straight through it, no damage to either ship. I flew every way possible through the ship, through every area, almost every angle, and there is NO collision with ANYTHING. Sorta ruined the realistic aspect of the game. Can ya fix it? I was on Polaris II (in case you need help reproducing it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
