That's what happens when you read and type too fast for your own good.

Quantum duplicates?

Nah, I just forgot to deactivate your cloaking device and targeted the nearest other ship, fellow Romulan.

Hello all BOTF2 testers (me now included):

I'm not completely sure if this is a bug (what I am about to tell you) but when I am the Federation in the latest patched
supremacy game, and build the ship yard in the Sol system, and then try to build a colony ship after that, and wait a couple
turns, the ship is not even starting to build!

Is there something I'm doing wrong here, is this a bug in the game, or do I have to wait longer for the ships to be built on Earth?

Anybody know anything about this?

I have some problems with ship building, I am at tech lvl 4, but I didn˙t get the Cruiser 2 or Colony Ship 2 at tech lvl 3.

There is another annoying bug since the last update: If a building upgrade (e.g. farm) is added to the queue and there is already another upgrade (e.g. intel) in it, then I get an "unexpected error".

I also get one with the autosave. The auto.sav is empty and clicking "Load Game" in the main screen causes the "unexpected error".

Check your resource levels when building ships--it could be that you're short on Dilithium, Deuterium, Personnel, or Raw Materials.

The facility upgrade bug has been fixed in today's update, as has the crash due to dequeuing a build project with a cost of zero (0), and the issue of "% Personnel Training" bonuses not being applied.

Saved games from the last couple versions *should* continue to load after applying this update, but as always, there are no guarantees.

Hi Guys , Mike just like to say Great Game . Im Really enjoying testing it ,
Im running it on a Windows Vista 64 bit system , Intel-Core 2 Duo 3.0 Ghz , 4 Ghz ram ,
GeForce 8800 GTX video card , SB X-FI sound card .
Ive noticed some Bugs , but they've allready been mentioned by other players on the Board .
The Game looks very Crisp and Clean , I cant wait until you finish it .
Supremacy Rules !!!!!!!!!

Hi guys, I just learnt of this project a week ago and im very impressed at the currunt build of the game.
Keep up the good work and I have to say Thanks to the developers for saving botf it was a great game
with great flaws.

I'am guessing it died half way through updating. Did you try and start uip again and see if the updater managed to complete. I don't know whether any firewall settings may have an effect on the updater process either i'am afraid.

I have just successfully run the default game through a couple of turns. The one thing I did different was to wait for the updater, instead of clicking on "single player". No software firewall, just the DSL gateway firewall(which has low settings).

So I'm up and running, now. I wonder if the open "single player" window affected things?

Possibly, if the updater was either scanning or updating files, the effect of starting a new game could have caused a conflict. My guess is that MStrobel hasn't put a lock or notification telling the user to wait for the updater to finish before starting a game yet.

Hi SargentWild,

Welcome to the forums! The error you posted is actually rather unusual. It seems the error occurred on the render thread, which suggests that something went wrong in the Direct3D renderer, the DirectX library itself, or your video driver. I would be surprised if you saw that error again.

You should be able to start the update at any point, because it does not depend at all on the current state of the game. All it does is download files in the background, and the changes are not applied until after the game exits. In theory, you should be able to begin an update while a game is in progress, while a game is starting, or at any other time.

Regards,
Mike

I've played 5 150 turn matchs as each race in multiplayer by myself and all up iv'e only had 2 crashes involving unhandled exeptions and only 1 uneplained crash to desktop. The first 3 were before the lastest patch the other 2 were played after.

My System: AMD X2 5600+
Foxconn 590 SLI Chipset Mobo
4 Gigs of 800mhz ram
X-Fi Gamer Sound card
XFX 8800GTX 768mb graphics
Running on Windows Xp Service Pack 2

Good going for an Alpha !!!!

I think a gold cd/dvd would be a nice touch. I remember not thinking very highly of them, until I got one of my own. So I think the people who helped out a lot would really appreciate it.

kudos.. on the game, ive quetly been paying attention, was around briefly for the botf2 project that disappeared... but this when i first got it.. was beyond my ideas on what someone would build.. so congrats to all involved, bugs... have all been mentioned.. or fixed that ive come accross, no need to thank me n shiznit.. youve done it enough to others.. but thanks for all the effort.. and future effort that you have and will put into this

Why can I build a Cardassian Listening Post whilte playing Federation? Is it a bug?

I hope this is not a duplicate report, but I did not see a known issue thread, or post.

When I right click and select system, I will get old information for Sol system, from (about) turn 5. I'm playing Federation.

This will occur unless:
1) I have Sol system selected when I right click.
2) I have a member system selected when I right click, and use the drop down menu at the top of the system screen.
3) Use the drop down menu at the top of the system screen to change to another system, then back to Sol sytem.

So any right clicks off of Sol system that go directly to Sol system will generate the problem, with the "drop down" menu providing correct information for Sol system.

Awesome work btw, what you have done so far is incredible. If the copy of Gmax at Turbo Squid is any good, I'll see about helping with models and artwork.

I got another error today, this one for memory, looks like:

Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt.
