This will happen if you deployed the units on a hill and they don't have time to adjust to the terrain height. Nothing I can do about it atm, but send me the save game (from RC4 I assume) with a copy of this report please. btw, did you get my email (and the saved game attachment) about your missing drone? EDIT: I can't view those shots. Yahoo is displaying a message that they are not available. Send them via email in JPEG format.

This way you don't have to get personally involved with every post. I know that I would rather you work on getting the expansion to UC done, then wasting your time here I have mods and admins who do just that. But thats not the point. The point is that I don't like the board cluttered and I have a certain way of doing things. It has always worked and the rules usually get breached every time a new game is released. Eventually the new folks get the message, see the pattern and everything settles down. Until the next game which brings more n00bs.

You guys should count yourselves lucky that you can actually save the game - and save it anywhere. I removed quick save because it was problematic and I don't intend to renable it because I don't want to make more work for myself.

quote: Originally posted by Lestat9: I also noticed the enemy marines dont come outta there "bases" until your troops actually walk on the city square, Thats not true. I had a AI related thread on Gone Gold in which I explained how the mzone propagates threat information to units within the mzone. quote: i wouldnt think they would take the escort order but they did. So i am starting to think its an error.A shuttle five miles away is outside of their detection range. Had you targeted the shuttle and given them the order to escort the shuttle or similar, they may have responded. But if they can't find the shuttle, they won't do it.

That patch is no longer available and nobody has my permission to distribute it because it is NOT for distribution.

quote: Originally posted by Elric_Sloan: Well, I am not sure, so take this with a grain of salt, but it may allow cheating in MP if you allow this to be editable. Correct. Apart from that, modification of the game without the GBS toolkit, is not permited and will just cause more problems.

The carrier is a supply platform, thats why the shuttle landed on it and remains attached to it (in the same way you can if you were walking on it in fp mode). If its one of yours, switch to it and fly it off or give it an order. If its not one of yours, destroy it with guided weaponry.

Graphics driver problem, nothing I can do about it. It works fine here.

Supply stations are not used for that. Read the manual. *moved*

We'll see how it goes, right now I've got too many things going on and I don't want to have to babysit RC patches and the forum as well.

Fixed in RC4 I believe

Sorry, thought this thread was about issues that we had after we patched with RC4. I'll just reinstall. Didn't mean to tick anyone off. You're not ticking anyone off, just try to play by the rules and keep threads in their correct forums. quote: Originally posted by CrazedOne: That stinks, Ive been playing RC3 then RC4 wrote down some of the issues I encountered, then read the updated "Known Issues PDF" realized none of what I encountered was new so left it alone. Im always happy to get some new updated features along with some of the "Known" with no complaints here. You cant let the "few" ruin it for us can you? err here.... The RC4 patch is available via your registration link.

If you found it funny, whats it doing in the tech support forum? Lemme move the thread so that you can go laugh about it over here... Anyway, are you sure that they didn't drown? Personnel should not get stuck in water (they know how to swim). Did you try giving them the escort order using TOM and then running off? Try swimming some more, so that if you have them in escort mode, they learn faster and then are able to mimic your actions. They may be thinking (processing their learn cycle) about how to best follow you, so they're probably not stuck, but instead are thinking ..ok, whose the first to follow this fool into water for no apparent reason? If you are certain they are stuck when they shouldn't, please elaborate and I'll move it back to tech support if needed. *moved*

Either that or release them to the public, don't bother responding to the people posting about the issues they're having with the RCs until a beta-tester lets you know that the issue is verified. Easier said than done. Just watch and see just how many actually IGNORE it.

quote: Originally posted by IntgrSpin: Hmmm. I guess that's a story you can tell yourself... Well, you're the one who was concerned about it and thus posted about it. It was your story. And nobody cares about how you think it should be. The fact is, it got you out of a jam. And if you were actually PAYING ATTENTION you would notice that he was explaining why your AE could not move through the ship. quote: But I also couldn't use DIE while standing on the bridge to send someone else there?For the same reason you won't lift your desktop and take it out back, because you want to sit out in the sun on a bright and sunny day. There is no fp mode in ship. So no DIE system. Doh! quote: From a strictly first-person perspective for the AE, it's a bit squirrely.Then, the next time you are faced with such a situation, don't use the DIE. Simple enough I think.

Looks they've found a way around it and will still ship it without the offending DMCA infringing code. [ 02-25-2004, 02:26 PM: Message edited by: Supreme Cmdr ]

I agree. But knowing Windows, you never know wtf is going on. btw, try forcing the logging by using the /l3 parameter and see if that makes a difference. I've seen elsewhere someone reported that without logging being forced, the console server (which REQUIRES some form of logging and should default to /l1 if absent) crashes on init.

How things change. I remember when we were all saying the same thing about ATI's drivers. Though now they both seem to be vying for the #1 spot for driver f*ckups.

quote: Originally posted by Cc: quote: The console server defaults to /l1 if no logging is entered. If its crashing without that parameter, then somethings wrong because, unlike the graphical server, the console server REQUIRES some form of logging.You just can't seem to accept that there is a problem here. Are you BLIND or just trying to piss me off? Which part of this statement below, was UNCLEAR? If its crashing without that parameter, then somethings wrong because, Since some of you have no goddamn clue what an RC release is, I am no longer going to be releasing them to the public. The RC4 will be last one until the 1.00.02 patch goes final sometime in March, assuming every known issue in the VCF is resolved. Might not be until April, dunno, this is no longer my #1 priority.

That was an oversight on my part and I only noticed it when I released GBS-III to the internal crew. Yeah, revert back to RC3, safe in the thought that from RC4 going forward, this will never be reenabled.

I unbanned him the next day I think.

Make up your mind man. What, after trying to help him, someone screwed up your day and you got all pissy? bah NO personal attacks on this board, but thanks for stopping by. You'll be missed.
