Modding SW3?

[Lotrek]

More testing done today.

The FTU attack scripts seem to be working but I could not test it fully (see below)

The new Plasma cannon works, the error of the Black Hole particle cannon is fixed.

I am basing my testing in Endoria 1. When I try to exit a portal more than one system away my game crashes. I have tried all possible routes and the same error occurs. I have tried it in 3 different motherships (Silver arrow, Radamanta, Rhino) to the same effect. I exit Endoria 1 to the next system with no problem, when I attempt to leave that system I crash with the following errors:

(last lines from Logfile)

LoadFromStream_SceneStuff: result: Ok!
(13:02:16) (INFO) LoadFromStream_MusicPlayList: result: Ok!
(13:02:16) (INFO) TeamStorage::RestoreTeam()

[EXCEPTION] 0x76bec42d (Unknown error.)
[EXCEPTION] [INFO] Memory Usage = 242.203125 Mb
[EXCEPTION] [INFO] heapchk return = -2 HEAP Ok

The loading screen gets to 1/2 a bar full, the game crashes and I get a popup box stating:

Microsoft Visual c++ Runtime Library
Runtime Error!
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.

Hm, is the ScriptErrors file also completely empty?, and the Last lines are not always the most helpful ones, Would love it when it would be the Full logfile.

Maybe try New Game?, This seems very Strange...

Tried a new game and no problems flying multiple portals. The GIU on the hurricane is insane. Sadly it handles like a drunk bathtub.

Maybe the crash from my old save has something to do with a quest in my log or some old code from previous versions, dunno. I am going to take a little break because starting over those forced story scripts yet again, I just don't have it in me atm.

Attached is the logfile of my old save. I am flying a silver arrow make two transitions then crash.

Yeah, the bigger an Ship in this Game is, the more problems will occur Because of the Retarded pathfinding...

I Would like to say Thank You for your Testing to this Point, thats really nice of you

Sadly, the Logfile really just says Unknown Error, well.. too bad. My I guess would also be that Maybe some old code Caused this.

But Still: Thanks for the Testing Lotrek. You will be definitely in the Credits when this Mod comes out in its own Thread sometime and in the Readme file .

NP. If nothing else, I think I've proven that I am all for the promotion of this game and hope to inspire the further propagation of it's type.

I figure I've given you enough unsolved errors and bugs for you to chew on for the next release. I'm not out for good, get 3.3 out and I'll dive back in

Hey mate, what is this SW3 Expansion mod from your signature? What does it do? Also, is GW's and Nanaki's mods included in it( Fleet mod and Mothership mod)?

[nocalora29]

Well, The Mod has some new Content, besides it also Include the Fleet Mod from Nanaki and Goblin Wizard's Motherships Mod.

But it also Contains stuff from StarRover's Website, Like their Engine Update & GUI Patch.

The Mod has the following stuff:
-Custom Missions, can be Activated at Maintance Stations
-Escorts that can be Bought (Currently Free)
-Content from StarRover's Engine Update(Including AI Enahancements)
-Includes the GUI Mod by Valv_Id (StarRover)
-New Events, these events Work together with the New Missions, especially the Escort ones. (Work in Progress, but Playable)
-New Modules.
-New Ships!
-New Bigships
-New Buyable Motherships(at Goblin Wizard's Maintance Stations Mothership Buy Menu)
-New Systems
-EVE Ships (Currently 2, almost 3 ;-;, Beware: They are Extremely OP and should only be Bought End-Game)
-Hyperjumps! (Deactivated on Custom Active Quests)
-Customizable System "Kobra". It can be Managed at an Maintance Station. (Experimental, Beware: High Lag when entering the System)
-WIP, But Included: Star Wolves 2 Systems. (Its currently impossible to go there, but its still on my ToDo list to add them all, they aren't connected directly but, theres one System which seperates these 2 Universes)
-Bugs...
-Mod Menu Perk, that the Hero gets in an New Game. Also can be got from the Compatibility Options Menu at an Maintance Station (If playing on an older save-file)
-Bank System (A Way to Basically get Income every few Jumps or so)
-Increased Max.Ship size of Random Contacts to somewhere around 5 - 9

Future stuffs
-AI Agents, which basically are CPU-Players, they will have their Mothership and everything
-Ore Convertings -BEWARE: HIGHLY WIP- (Shoot Asteroids that will drop Ores. These can be Converted to other Stuff that makes even More Money when Sold.)
-Basebuilding (In the workings, with Good outcomes until Now) Estimated Release Time: Test Build will be available This or Next Month [Oct-Nov 2015]
[Info: The Basebuilding will have an huge impact on what the Player can and will do, many things will be possible when a player has build his Base, he can basically be his own Faction with the capabilities he will have -
of course it will take a long time to accomplish all features, but it will be definitely worth it once I get it finished]
-Prison Fleets (Escort an Highly valuable Pirate, Corporate, or normal Lawbreaker to an Prison Station, This Event will ONLY occur Local, meaning it will only spawn in when you are in an System where an Prison station is)
[Planned Systems: Not yet Planned]
-More Systems
-More Weapons
-More Modules
-More Custom Quests

-Probably some other Features that didn't got listed on here. oh well.

Edit: 0.5.3G Test Build Released
Next: 0.6.0B Balance Build

This all sounds like a great addition to SW3, downloading it for testing. Only one info is needed: Is your mod made for SW3 1.11 version, or, 1.12?

I have 1.11 English version, the Russian patch does not work for me..
