That would be like saying the French shouldn't be driving around in German cars. Just because, well, they're French. The race/caste alliance system is very sophisticated and apart from the NPC auto-generation AI rules, bear relevance to how the world is run. The alliance matrix itself changes over time as this further shapes the world dynamics. As for crew and assets, the argument is moot. There too many races and castes and I didn't want to differentiate as to what race has what asset. The issue with crew is down to art resources. The original BC game had you playing only as Terran Military Commander. Which was fine with only humans. Once BCM came around back in 2001, the ability to play as any race and several castes introduced the need for not only images but almost 1000 voice files - per race. I decided not to do it because the tradeoff in the ability to play any race, caste, choose any asset etc, is worth it.

For as long as you've been around, you should've fixed your sig by now. quote: Originally posted by tereleth: so here's *my* test. oy. Thats nice. But you mind filling in the requirement information now then? That info is required for tech support purposes.

The only information in this regard, is located in the appendix data. Go to the program group created by the installer and in the Docs group you will see a link to the appendix. You can go from there - and there is a lot of information there. I never heard of a Syrion Paramedic

Please the Read This Now! link at the top of the forum, then register the game and fix your sig please. Rules are simple, if you wish to post here, you have to follow these rules. If you don't, you can't post (or your post will be deleted). In which case if you need tech support, the email address is on the inside cover of the manual. Nobody is allowed to respond to posts in which the poster does not have their registration info in their sig. Think of it as a badge of honor. Or something.

OK, thanks Gordon. I wanted to make sure that it had nothing to do with the profile - since thats what the original poster seemed to imply.

Cc, what exactly are you verifying? That this problem only occurs if you change the default gear profile, or what?

Find someone who can reproduce this and I'll investigate it. And have you tried this with a new game in which you didn't mess around with the default gear profile?

heh

I use Opera and love it. Bastards.

BMS 2.0 has been released!!!!!

No. And its not adequate because printing a version with the Black background is not as good as the White one. Which, this morning, I modified to include the name/type (click the link above again, as I have now refreshed it) of the station in each region. So, If you have a version with the White background, grids, station name/type etc, send it to me and I'll include it in the upcoming 2.00.08 build.

Yeah, I deleted that testuser too btw, Papi, I'm going to leave you in charge of accepting invites sent to the '3000ad' group.

There is a reason this one crushed a box office record. It is freaking amazing and funny. I took my daughter and her cousin to see it and we had a great time. Now she wants to go see it again. But so do I 10/10

Man, I can't wait for the season finale tomorrow!! Last week's episode was just killer!!!

quote: Originally posted by Crush: its stories like this that really make me upset about being robbed. heh, we (Terran/Military) had a truce going with the Terran/Insurgent scumbags. The ROE was, if its not an NPC, you don't shoot at it. So, imagine trying to go from Procon to Galadran - with weapons on hold - and a bunch of Red blips on radar. Funny thing happened to me en-route. There I was at Gaulan trying to use the flux field to hop over to Junae so that I could proceed to Rovarix, then on to Palean and finally to Galadran. Got relocated by the fluxfield twice. And on the third attempt, I finally got the destination I wanted. I was back in Castrin. So I just hopped over to Foron and took the long way. When you're trying to get somewhere in a hurry, you don't want to use a flux field. Well, en-route, not only were the Police out in full swing (and harassing the Insurgents), Kyle was sure to meet sudden death, so I decided to access the server remotely to manually destroy the Police ship. Thats when I crashed the server. But it was fun though. Marvin - would you believe - was making the journey in a shuttle. And he actually made it too. Go figure. Before I crashed the server, the Insurgent (I think it was Shohashi) who had made it to Galadran, was passing along tactical information about NPC movements in Galadran. For example, there was an NPC S24 Raven camping the jump gate into Galadran. Of course, being in a Nightstar carrier, I shrugged it off as a pest. Until I jump in. And the bastard destroyed me - because I forgot that I had weapons on hold. I think Sho got him in the end.

The only post worth saving, from a now deleted (bastards creating dupe threads are really gunning for me to ban their ass) thread. quote: Originally posted by Sebbish: "The Last Thief 3 Preview You Will Ever Need to Read" This guy was quite impressed, and thinks Thief fans will like it. I know some people were afraid it would be "dumbed-down" or become too much of a console title (especially after Deus Ex 2). Thankfully, it looks like that won't happen. Here's some Gone Gold impressions.

Review

If it comes out looking like someone else's, then yes I know its a pain, but its the only way I can be sure that those posting here - and using up my resources - are deserving of it. Very soon, the board is going to be closed to the public and you will only be able to view it (let alone post) if you have a valid registration profile.

No.

No problem. I'll probably re-enable them in a future mp update. Dunno yet cuz I'd have to test it for side effects and such.
