Im getting a new card since BCG wont run on a geforce2 mx and probably more RAM. Anyway talking about inercorp restructuring, it might be a good idea to retire the diplomat division for now because Im not sure if there is much interest. If more people wanting to play diplomat turn up then it can be brought back.

Im still here, just about. I'll start checking the forums more often to see how things are going.

I first played it at a friends house before I owned a PC in 1997. He got tired of it so I borrowed it and still have it today. It was the main reason I got an internet connection, just so I could upgrade when the patches started comming out.

In the faq it says: quote: Q. SOMETIMES THE GAME HANGS WHEN RESTORING A SAVED GAME A. There are reports that this could happen if you have an SB Live! card. Try adding the -x0 command line parameter to the BCM shortcut and see if that helps. This disables all distance attenuated sound processing and has no affect on the sounds themselves since BCM does not support A3D or EAX. How do I do this? Ive tried changing the target under the shortcut tab to : "C:Program Files3000ADBattlecruiser Millenniumbcm.exe-x0" But I keep getting the message: The name "C:Program Files3000ADBattlecruiser Millenniumbcm.exe-x0" specified in the target box is not valid. Make sure the path and file name are correct

Or is that just for certain missions like the first 2 in TOD 1? I keep replaying the second mission since I cant get the Diplomat to dock on time. I guess that teaches me for choosing a slow ship to fly! Put your AE in a FC and jump ahead of the diplomat and clear any obsticals that cold slow the diplomat down.

quote:Originally posted by Supreme Cmdr: It does now If you don't locate the Reingard probe and shuttle by the resolution of this mission, you will lose 5000 EPs and not get the medal. I have also increased the time for this TOD and others. Ok, I can do that, but does that now mean you dont have to get the HSD from that other ship?

I use flux fields 6 and 12 to get around, problem is I often end up in the wrong region when passing through, that or a black hole. No matter I'll just try again.

Has anyone completed this yet? The closest Ive gotten is with the HSD on my shuttle, then the timer runs down. Anyway do you have to take it back to Galcom HQ in the alloted time, if so how? These CC's dont move as quick as they used to.

quote:Originally posted by Supreme Cmdr: They will only fire when they have an accurate lock solution. If that pilot is skilled, he's not hanging around long enough for your turrets to get a lock. And once they get a lock, if the target is not in the same position for the designated seconds, the lock will cancel and the turret has to reacquire. It works this way for realism and to minimize the number of AI ticks. The AI processing for turrets (especially on stations) is very intensive and it is minimized where possible. Ok that makes sense, oh well I'll just have to send out a shuttle.

Do different ships have more accurate turrets, or is it just a question of rotating your ship? Im in a Megaron and ive been sitting here waiting for the next mission, while an enemy fighter has been hovering around me for about 30 mins and has hardly taken a hit from my PTA. They dont seem to fire that often, not when viewing from outside anyway. [ 12-27-2001: Message edited by: TRD ]

Finaly I have BCM, and Im not swamped with asignments. Whats happening with these boards? Are they staying open now.
