[SW3] [MOD] - The SW3.Expansion Mod - 0.5.3G

Machine guns... thats an nice idea, gonna look into it, might even consider doing an custom 3d model for this one.

@tyrotrela

You just need the newest files, which are MAIN and RESOURCES, but you have to install RESOURCES first, after that juse copy&paste the MAIN stuff in.

If it still does not work, feel free to ask for more help.

[tyrotrela]

Thank you for clarifying this, i will try to install resources first this time around.

[tyrotrela]

The method worked and i got o play for a while, all the changes are awesome and i really like the random massacres and the enemy ai is challenging on hard difficulty, but i can't find those new ships you said you added, all i get are the original ships added by goblin. Is it because i manually installed the mod?

PS. The x8 fix.exe is working fine except some crashes every now and then.

PPS. sometimes stashions offer no items BUT i can sell at full price EVERY item. It resets after re docking.

PPS. The merc base in the early mission after you ignore Heretic disapears and won't allow the mission to progress, thus i had to go with Heretic.

Do you mean the Templar ships?, they aren't added yet, I plan to include either on Friday, or maybe (when it takes a bit longer) on saturday.

Crashes every now and then?, did this appear early on when you were doing the mission where you also get your 2nd Mothership?, because there have been crashes for a long time now in that area, and I have no idea why.

Which stations in particular?, stations not selling items seems like an pretty huge bug, I would love to have the LOGFile.txt to see what happened there.

The merc base disappearing also seems like an huge bug, it would be very kind of you to post the contents of your LOGfile.txt on pastebin.com and sending me the link to view it, im going to try to replicate the bugs you encountered eitherway.

[tyrotrela]

my Log file is empty. I dunno i think i messed up the installation somehow.

The templar fighters work fine, unless you are referring to other templar ships

The first crash happened with the second and third mothership, while i was grinding exp

Random stations apparently, i thought it happened while transfering a fighter from the mothership to the hold, since it shows an empty panel right after the transfer, it forces the station to show empty stores. but i can't verify that yet, will try to replicate it in more systems

also the elephant fighter that the msf use has a big box on top of it, white and red, not sure if it has a turret or what, and another msf ship ( small and with a lot of turrets appears white all over except the turrets)

i will try to find more bugs, but im not even sure if i installed your mod correctly still...

[nocalora29]

Hmm, that logfile should always have atleast some content in it, even in an CTD...

The thing with the msf figher seems to be either an missing texture or something else, but it still would resolve a lot of problems when I somehow got the logfile, like you can try to start a new game just to change like 2 - 4 systems and then just post the logfile in pastebin, and give me the link afterwards, if theres something really wrong, the logfile should output the needed information.

It should usually always have content, just try to refresh the file and it should have content in it, windows sometimes just doesn't show it has been updated for some reason.

I can only help you to an certain extend without any LOGfile, since many things are happening behind the curtains in the code of the game, it might even see OK in an visual-perspective, but if theres errors in the code, it usually will not notify you in any way in the game itself, but will output it in the logfile/scripterrors file instead.

[tyrotrela]

I believe the Log file is not working because i didn't install the mod using the bat exe.
But it doesn't work at all, maybe windows 10 is responsible, i have 0 experience with coding so i can't help you help me. Maybe run me through the manual installation more in depth, perhaps goblins patch fix screwed something up, though the game wouldn't run 1.12 without it, i have skidrow's pirated version btw. Furthermore i seem to never loose saved games whenever i reinstall this game and i can't find the save files, could be the culprit for the issues i'm having, just a thought.

[nocalora29]

Hm, alright first off, the save files are in GameDir\Profiles\YOURUSERNAME\Save\

When you consider reinstalling the game, please use this (Skidrow's) release:
MAGNET

If you have any Torrent client, it should add it to the downloads, atleast it works on me with BitTorrent.

Try to just install the Resources and after that the MAIN. (No additional patches/fixes, IIRC goblins patch IS included in the mod)

If still does not work, I will consider just uploading my game instead, that should solve every problem, if there is any with the .7z's, although it may take a while until I package all of the gigabytes that there are, but firstly I think it would be good to see if this release is any different from the skidrow release you have tried.

Oh, and did you try compatability mode, btw?.
Win7 and XP SP3 should work fine.

With all these problems Win10 brings us, I might have to set up an VirtualVM in order to find out if Win10 actually fucks things up here. win7 <3

And still, after all this stuff, the LOGfile not having content is actually the most strange part for me.

And don't worry about the .bat, it does not work eitherway, I still have to create an actual Installer instead of an simple batch.
