New shiplist in and posted:

http://www.dynaverse.net/downloads/sfc2_op/Mods/UAW_Test_Dyna_Specs_Feb16.zip

Place it in the following folders in your UAW:OP installation:
\agt\NoPlasma06
\Assets\Specs
\MetaAssets

Server not reset. The yards will clear of old ships in 5 turns (25 minutes). I did a db clean to clear the server AI in case they have old bugged ships. If you have a bugged ship, trade it in for a new one. If still bugged, let us know.

Base destruction settings back to my usual settings. Give the base assaults another try...

Kepp the reports coming, we'll get all the bugs worked out of this sucker yet and hopefully take it out of test mode soon!

To me, that sounds like the race "plural" names in the server kit have not been changed, or is that the clients strings folder?

There's no setting for plural racenames in the serverkit gfs. (the serverkit source handles some racenames grammar however). It must be client side or in the mission scripts. I suspect it is how the missions scripts work...

There is  plural race names in the client, but I just looked, and they seem to be modded fine.  Problem is probably in the scripts then.

As for chat, yes, if you start your name with a number, chat will not work, and the map takes forever to load  (remember the "F" Grim ;) )

The rar is a zipped up version of the exe. Extract the exe then run the exe. That should work for the 600 meg file.

I'll create a new shiplist download for the CUGS masses ASAP and post all over the place when I do - busy busy busy!! It'll be tonight (2/16/06)

lol..

actually,

This file will automatically place the new files into the correct folder. By running the same batch file, UAW_DYNA_BETA, you'll activate the new shiplist.

This is Bonk's shiplist..

Its a Lakota BCH  ( Lak3 )

I forgot to ask, did you buy this ship from the in-game shipyards or from the webyards?


Where do I find the "Web Yards"  ?      :huh:

Whoops! I forgot to put the new shiplist in the webyards. Its in now. If you have bought a ship from the webyards in the last few days and it is buggy, trade it in and try again.

Got onto the server and ran first mission.....couldn't see my ship, stars, enemy ship, but I did see one thing.....NOTHING! grrrrrr. Have worked for 2 hours to get on the server. What did I miss?

Sounds like you're missing the models, did you run the 600MB installer on your active install of OP?

Missing models - another Bonk Question..
« Reply #97 on: February 19, 2006, 09:04:01 pm »
The 1file (600 meg) can be tricky  - when Installing it has 3 parts - the 1st one is rather quick - give it a minute or so to pick up the 2nd part.. then the 3rd. You are missing models.

Bonk -

Question -

Can you change the name of the server and add another shiplist without resetting? When we go with the final version, I'd like to have a storyline for the masses to read. I do want to maintain the current roster. 

I will be doing some tweaking with the Non-Playable Pirates and some of the Freighters, and any other oddities I might find. I'll use Excel, lol.

I'm very pleased with the turnout on this server and the comments received thus far.

Should be doable. (no definite promises though)

Very good sir!  ;)

I noticed yesterday that the Lakota 2  (F-LAK2)  says it has 5 probes available, but they wont arm.

Also, on mission matching notes..... the planet defense mission only drafts 2 people (as we know).  That's not so much the issue as is the fact that 1AF-Grim in his Defiant drafted me in my Lakota, and we pulled in a Dominion BB and BCHF along with 3-4 CW's !!!   Now, if we could of drafted C-Los in his Lakota 3, maybe there would of been a chance...LOL

Also, before we took the planet at 5,3 we were running planet assaults, and there was no planet, just ships, FRD's, DEF's and Base stations.

Here's a nice screen of me in a solo assault with some Hydran helpers  ;)
