Hasn't it occured to you by now that its not frigging possible to use any texture higher than 1024x512? Whats it going to take to get you realize this? An excorcism? And if you go and darken the map, you'll get adverse results because - in case you hadn't noticed (I doubt it) - the game automatically darkens one side of the planet map quite fine. And why is this in this forum? When you first started this topic, I no indication that it had anything to do with BCM. Moved [ 03-20-2002, 14:01: Message edited by: Supreme Cmdr ]

Welcome back you Gammulan reject

You need to re-download the 1.0.07 full or update patch and run it. If you have this file GALCOMHQ.INI in your MODELSANIMATE folder, you have not applied the patch properly. There should only be 518 files in that folder. This issue has already been discussed elsewhere. At that time, I re-packaged the 1.0.07 patch files and re-uploaded them in order to provide a failsafe method of deleting some obsolete files (which WILL cause this problem) if the user didn't apply the patch properly. First try the update version of the patch (just apply it on top of itself). As long as you execute it from the folder where BCM is installed, those obsolete files (which will cause this problem), will be removed.

The stress is off of me now, I am employed and a happy camper. Being unemployed for 6 months with no income can stress you out to the max!! Well, thats nice. But there is a forum for stuff like this. Go there and stop posting off-topic.

quote: Originally posted by Gallion: PTA firepower is not indicated in the Appendix. TTFN Sounds like we need to add a field called Turret Shot Rating after the Qty of Turrets field for capital ships and stations. Using info derived from the objclass.scr and objdefs.scr files (below) the per shot rating for example the Stormcarrier turrets could be derived as listed as follows : 150 units/500ms From the above, each time a turret beam paints a target, it inflicts 150 units of damage per 500 ms. Therefore, if 4 of its 6 turrets paint the same target for the same amount of time, the damage inflicted is 4x this amount (4x150=600). In instances where each turret has a different shot rating, an average value should be used. Note that even though the beams generally slice in one of several directional patterns, the recharge time determines when the beam is turned on/off within any target acquisition pass. quote: CLASS STORMCARRIER:STORMCARRIER.3D,carrier { ICON={6,14}; SHIP={4,SFIGHTER}; SHIP={4,CORSAIR}; SHIP={2,STARMONK}; SHIP={2,INTERDICTOR}; SHIP={2,SHUTTLE_MK2}; SHIP={2,SHUTTLE_MK3}; SHIP={40,MARINE_SFORCE_A}; TURRET=[sHOTl5p,SHOTl5p,SHOTl5p,SHOTl5p,SHOTl5p,SHOTl5p]; GUN=[sHOTl5r,SHOTl5r,SHOTl5r,SHOTl5r]; MISSILE={10,STS_VAGRANT}; MISSILE={10,STS_PERSEUS}; MISSILE={10,STS_QUESTOR}; MISSILE={10,STS_RALIX}; MINE={10,MINE_LEECH}; MINE={10,MINE_CRAB}; OTS={5,OTS_STALLION}; OTS={5,OTS_BUGNOR}; POD=[sHUTTLE_MK3]; } quote: STORMCARRIER.3D,STORMCARRIER,SARc, ?24,*2500,!28500,%500,A0.2500,L100,C560,H750,&1800000,j90000,J180000,P9,R8,Y10,[2500,]5000,^60000,35000,{1000,}250000,(_PRYATVGNEW) quote: SHOTs1p.3D,_SHOTs1p,,~500,E50,(Z) SHOTs2p.3D,_SHOTs2p,,~500,E75,(Z) SHOTs3p.3D,_SHOTs3p,,~500,E100,(Z) SHOTs4p.3D,_SHOTs4p,,~500,E125,(Z) SHOTs5p.3D,_SHOTs5p,,~500,E150,(Z) SHOTm1p.3D,_SHOTm1p,,~500,E50,(Z) SHOTm2p.3D,_SHOTm2p,,~500,E75,(Z) SHOTm3p.3D,_SHOTm3p,,~500,E100,(Z) SHOTm4p.3D,_SHOTm4p,,~500,E125,(Z) SHOTm5p.3D,_SHOTm5p,,~500,E150,(Z) SHOTl1p.3D,_SHOTl1p,,~500,E50,(Z) SHOTl2p.3D,_SHOTl2p,,~500,E75,(Z) SHOTl3p.3D,_SHOTl3p,,~500,E100,(Z) SHOTl4p.3D,_SHOTl4p,,~500,E125,(Z) SHOTl5p.3D,_SHOTl5p,,~500,E150,(Z) SHOTh1p.3D,_SHOTh1p,,~500,E25,(Z) SHOTh2p.3D,_SHOTh2p,,~500,E50,(Z) SHOTh3p.3D,_SHOTh3p,,~500,E75,(Z) SHOTh4p.3D,_SHOTh4p,,~500,E100,(Z) SHOTh5p.3D,_SHOTh5p,,~1000,E2500,(Z) SHOTods1p.3D,_SHOTodslp,,~1000,E1000,(Z) SHOTods2p.3D,_SHOTods2p,,~1000,E1500,(Z)

quote: Originally posted by Captain X: One question I didn't see that I would like to read the answer to is, "Is your current lifestyle everything you dreamed it would be?" (You know, making your own schedule, doing your own thing, not having to get up and shower, dress, drive to freakin work, every freakin day...) ....there's a good reason it wasn't asked. It is a silly question. Since I have the power to change my life, why I would be stuck living a lifestyle I didn't like? Most people don't seem to realize that its not as simple as it sounds. Working the way I do, is just a very dangerous lifestyle because you spend more time working that anything else. e.g. I wake up usually around 6am, depending on what I time I went to sleep. Even if it was at 3am. If I had a lousy job to go to, you bet your ass I'd be calling in sick, or going to my grandma's funeral for the umpteenth time that year. But since everything I do is at stake, I still drag my sorry ass out of bed (or the couch) and go to my office. The result is you end up working longer and harder.

Congrats!!! But don't get too excited though, cuz they're not going to let you anywhere near a Battlecruiser.

You'd want to sit down to read this. You'll be there a while.

Surely you know that all ships use different beam ratings?

I think I'll release it with the next patch and with the skeleton docs that I have. That should get aspiring modders started - especially if they already have BC3K GBS experience.
