I have uploaded 1.0.02 RC4 [ 12-03-2001: Message edited by: Supreme Cmdr ]

Thats nothing. There's more. Seek and ye shall find. Just wait until I put in the forests, vegetation and animals (land and sea) in the XP1 add-on. [ 12-03-2001: Message edited by: Supreme Cmdr ]

quote: Originally posted by Badgerius: No, after they destroyed the target that had aquired me, they jumped. I checked their orders, and it was SAD, with the Sunflash as the target. That Sunflash did not have me targeted, the other one did. When I re-ordered them to escort me, the orders changed back to Escort, target: GCV-Diligence. I've noticed this several times. I will engage in combat with FCs protecting me. Once the immediate danger is passed (ie no one is currently attacking me) the FCs revert to SAD, and go hunting if I don't reign them in. I had attributed this to Low AI levels (All under 25%) of my pilots. What I said and what you describe above, work as they were designed.

quote: Originally posted by EAGLE: Thx for clearing that. By the way i was originaly relying on Artifacts page, where there is no need for RE to use Orb JAC and Phased IOD, and when i was able to use Phased IOD on my curiser i assumed that i dont need RE to use ORB and JAC and i can use them on my Questar. And i never bothered to by RANDOM or SHD couse in Artifacts they have reference to AI for RE. Thx again. np. Thanks for pointing out. In the 1.0.02 RC4 patch, I have updated the crew page now to match the game code. The artifacts page is correct and didn't need any revision.

quote: Originally posted by Drastic: I think that the CC not being in AI mode was what was stopping the upgrade from being available--I have to confirm it. (I wouldn't be terribly surprised if I read right past a sentence in the manual that says exactly that, of course.) If that's the case, hopefully this will unstick people with similar problems. Nope. There is NO correlation between the ship's AP and the crew. Maybe you didn't wait long enough for the CE to even notice (AI dependent) that you had the spare part.

quote: Originally posted by treeder: My CC (sunflash heavy cruiser) was landed planet side and i wanted to depoy a CAB w 2 marines for patrol purposes. I found that the CAB could not be loaded aboard the shuttle from the TACTICAL LOADOUT menu. I also tried the TACTICAL LAUNCH menu but it wasn't even accessable. Hmmm?? so how do i launch the CAB or even use it?[ 12-02-2001: Message edited by: treeder ] Fixed

quote: Originally posted by Tac: sounds good chief. After all, landing on a slope to deploy troops aint exactly wise. Yep, but as you've seen, the noobs will do anything - without thinking - and then cluttering my board with crap.

It is rubbish. Just as I said. If you don't know that their use of weapons relies on their AI and skills, then you need to play the game some more before cluttering my board with USELESS posts.

No And in MP the server sets the game time

quote: Originally posted by Simparadox: My box just had a little sticker-type seal holding it shut. He might've gotten a returned copy, though. I know (I worked there for about a month last year - I don't know if this is still their policy) the EB near me seals any and all returns that are put back on the shelf in a plastic wrap. They always do a pretty crappy job, though, so it's easy to tell which games were return copies and which are unused . By the way, if there was no sticker on the sleeve what was holding it shut? [ 12-02-2001: Message edited by: Simparadox ] Yes. Someone may have bought it, took the serial number, returned the game. And the EB sales person took it back in that condition and put it back on the shelf. That would explain the box being shrink wrapped. Kadil, please take it back to the EB you bought it from and explain to them. Also, send me info about that EB store, when you bought it, the conditions (as you have described here) etc to [email protected] so that I can inform EB management about this. That store should NEVER accept a return which does not contain the full materials or one which is damaged to the extent that the Tyvex sleeve containing the serial number is missing. Kadim, don't worry about exchanging the game. I have asked Lisa to generate a serial number for you, because from your description, you seem to have a legit copy of the game. Be sure to have your EB receipt handy because we'll need it. [ 12-03-2001: Message edited by: Supreme Cmdr ]

quote: Originally posted by Soback: You can add so many things to the CC craft oh mighty one, but yet my CC can't install the artifact shield upgrade. I want to be the baddest bad @ss in the galaxy, do you think it can be possible to make a kind of unofficial/undupported "patch" so that all ships can use all artifacts and upgrades? No. Not ever.

quote: Originally posted by Mitchell: The SC wrote: WTG, SC! I was just about to ask whether Sys Engrs could be ordered to prep the shuttles the same way Flight Engrs can for FCs in Carriers. Adding a few Flight Engrs definitely would be best, tho, IMHO. BTW, can Flight Engineers be ordered to prep/recharge SCs in Carriers, too? I thought I could only do that for FCs, and then I only needed to if the FO was off station or failed to give the order... Guess it's time for a few more experiments Man, I love this game Check today's VCF update

M = minutes And it does change. All planets have different climate and time zones. Your idea of several hours could be completely different from the ingame date/time. Surely you know this by now?

Read the manual. There is some little thing called gravity.

Yeah, I have a suggestion. Start by reading the VCF.

quote: Originally posted by Kadil Ram: Umm. . . Is there any other place I could find this information? This sticker refuses to be found. I hope I didn't throw it out. . . I don't see HOW the sticker could be lost, since its stuck ONTO the Tyvex CDROM sleeve. Describe to me the contents of the game box and what was inside etc. That whole container description sounds suspicious to me too.

It depends on the type of units you encounter.

quote: Originally posted by Gamaliel: As a Terran/Scientist I am in command of a Transport class vessel. How do I recharge my support crafts? Or is this even something I need to worry about? Unless they dock at a station, they won't be recharged since transports and cruisers don't have FEs. However, now that I think about it, I will just add some FEs to transports and cruisers.

quote: Originally posted by Gamaliel: Uhm..here is another CNG (Clueless Newbie Question ).How accurate are the weather forecasts in the NID's NIR mode. Just curious - I love landing on planets just to see the weather effects. Gamaliel out. As accurate as what is displayed in the forecast

I use the 2280 drivers under WIN2K/WIN9x and don't have that problem. Stop overclocking your card might be a start.

I'm going to be scouting for these and posting them here an in the FAQ. Athlon & geForce
