This is going to be fun watching TTFN

quote:I dunno whats wrong but I was suspecting it had something to do with having a enemy ODS while having a friendly station near it but I am not sure. I'll leave the SC to try to repeat it if he can. NO, this is totally inaccurate assuption on your part. A hostile ODS near a friendly station will not cause a CTD. Fix your sig Melanie650 and salisbury IAW with this. TTFN

quote:I'm thinking of trying to be one of the network repair technicians, for TCP/IP and LAN's and WAN's and all that stuff. Good choice At least you did not go for that inflight missile repair MOS quote:I'm feeling weird right now knowing I've just sold at least 4 years of my life, but I know in my mind it's the best thing for me. I dunno... cheer me up Hehehe ... wait until the DI gets a hold of you Get in shape; running (5 miles x3 days per week), pushups (50 in 2 minutes), situps (60 in 2 minutes), and pullups - not chinups - 15. when you get outta bootcamp, your wife will not recognize you You'll be a lean, mean, fighting machine - fact not a cliche.

Compliance is now mandatory to access the forum. Monday, 3 December is the cutoff folks. Don't wait 'til the last minute. TTFN

Can't wait to get you folks on a MP server It'll be like takin' candy from a babe Especially IF CTAS is implemented TTFN

hmmmm ... that's odd ... I got mine hanging on the wall here TTFN

Ok antaren42, where do you want to start? First - what version of Dx are you running? BCM requires Dx8.1. Second - you need to upgrade your v-card drivers to a version that supports Dx8.1 Third - update that dated OS at the M$ Update site. Forth - Read The FAQ Pay particuliar attention to the following areas: Q. AFTER I INSTALL AND TRY TO PLAY, THE GAME HANGS OR THE VIDEO IS CORRUPT! ... If you have a 3DFX Voodoo 3 video board : ... Known Voodoo 3/4/5 driver issues : ... and Last but not least - If the above fails then upgrade that antiquated video card. TTFN [ 11-30-2001: Message edited by: Gallion ]

Another way is not to do it. Let the hostile target (fighter in this case) come to you instead. NPCs are real easy to lure into a trap Stew on that for a while TTFN

Several different solutions noted in this thread work wrt station capture. Patience is the most important skill that any player must have when attempting to capture any star station. Lose patience and station goes BOOM! TTFN

Buy the game if you want the manual. TTFN [ 11-30-2001: Message edited by: Gallion ]

BCM is not Star Trek - deal with it TTFN [ 11-30-2001: Message edited by: Gallion ]

SC has posted a forum/profile update. Compliance is required. TTFN [ 11-30-2001: Message edited by: Gallion ]

Fresh BCM install = Uninstall current instalation, re-install BCM and patch up to v1.0.01 Botched Dx8.1 = Reinstallation of Dx8.1 TTFN [ 11-29-2001: Message edited by: Gallion ]

This guy is referring to BC3K. Closing thread. TTFN

Moved to the BC3K Legacy Forum. 1. Read The Manaul 2. Search the forum = Keyword Intruders 3. BC3K is not supported. 4. Do not post BC3K queries in a BCM forum - these are two simuliar but different games. 5. Time Compression was disabled in the version(s) you have. CTL+A sets the craft you are in into differect AI modes; Direct or AI. TTFN [ 11-27-2001: Message edited by: Gallion ]

LOL come up for air bubblehead Seriously though, the batterey thingy mentioned in the BC3K was a big typo iirc. They (the batts) never were there in BC3K and are certainly not in BCM. quote:Yet I've lost my reactor, been on the dark side of a planet and seemed to have power, so do I guess I have a battery, but the new docs don't mention it. Think Solar power here (aka Solar Reactor). Just because your CC is on the darkside of a planet doesn't mean that it is not receiving some type of solar radiation/wind/rays-whatever. quote:I lived to get back to Starpath, but I have just GOT to know if those weapons can find me in orbit! That was what the SC orginally had in mind - CC in orbit = STO acquisition = CC DeD = BOOM = Game Over But he seemed to back away from that. All I can say is DeD any STO launchers found before they launch when planetfall is established - they have a very loooong range. Good thing they have a looong target acquisition time I'm rambling now, better quit while I can still post TTFN [ 11-27-2001: Message edited by: Gallion ]

Seen better verbage. How long did you play the game before writing that page? TTFN

Goodbye Table! TTFN

Anytime between a FRI evening (1800 EST GMT-5) to the following SUN afternoon (1800 EST GMT-5) is good for me. TTFN [ 11-27-2001: Message edited by: Gallion ]

quote:God help us all..... I hear you on that Fendi. JJ as a zero? Allah help us all $ilk remember this - soap on a rope and don't drop it This test is serious one so don't bollo it. Better the score - the better MOS, RATE, Career, or Job that you can get. Unless you want to be the Ultimate Weapon - Infantry! Uncle Sam's Misguided Children are not noted for the techie type MOSs - unless inflight missile repairer counts. So if you get a book to look at, before choosing your MOS, then RTB very, very, carefully. Pay attention to any and all fine print. Don't expect a big BHA quarters allowence until you start climbing the rank latter. And what ever you do - Do NOT piss Gunney Off. You have been warned TTFN [ 11-27-2001: Message edited by: Gallion ]

A Diplomat would not make it to Gammula. An Assassin would more than likely take out the Diplomat before it ever made it there. Take a look at the Castes page of the Appendix. Creating a scenario that takes advantage of harmless castes abilities (traders, explorers, workers, etc.), that is centered on a player playing as one of those castes, would be easy to do but not very exciting IMO. Creating a scenario/campaign with harmless caste NPCs could add to the scenario. I don't know what that would be aside from what I call normal NPC interaction. But what the hey, when GBS-II is release, try it and find out. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. TTFN [ 11-27-2001: Message edited by: Gallion ]

quote:How does BCM change the mechanics of the game universe? Craft handling characteristics and other parameters are dramatically changed in BCM when comapred to BC3K. PRY rates, HJ transit and recharge times, main gun range and damage, PTA effectiveness and the number of PTA turrets on each craft. The list goes on and on. TTFN

You have to first install the upgrades then assign your SEs to repair them. Geeezz TTFN [ 11-26-2001: Message edited by: Gallion ]
