beautiful

thanks for the update and thanks for this mod.

that is so darn true about win10.. hehe glad some other gamer agrees with me.

anyways, can't wait for the awesome GC's you guys will put out!

Hey Imperial.. so I fixed the launcher problem...

SO under win10 version 1511. That's what comes in the box. YOUR launcher extraction device will only extract the 1.1.0 version onto win10.

I had to manually open up each patch and i put each patches Files on my desktop, one patch at a time. THen i did "old Skool" and did lots of Copying and pasting of each patch manually into the Stargate/Mods/Data folder until i had patch 1.4.1 in it.

Then using your .bat file.

I finally got the mod to load up properly without an error 255 code.
The intro movie played great and now the WM maps are where they should be.

I don't know enough about crappy win10. They seem to keep breaking it with their patches. It used to run older games very well.

But anyways, that is a viable solution for anyone who have "launcher" problems.. It's very nice that the launcher does at least include all the patches when it messes up with an install LOL

hi, SO i just checked the setting and compatibility on my gaming laptop which has win8.1 on it. That machine says in the compatibility check that "The mod version can't be found" and it's listing the mod V as only 1.0.0

Shouldn't these be saying it's version of the mod should be 1.4.1 if everything actually did download and install onto my machines.

Also on Wednesday morning both of my machines "Wiped their respective SSD's that had the updated "Anniversary Edition" Update of windows 10 installed. I lost everything. So both of my machines have fresh and clean win8.1 and fresh win10 on them.

Sorry to cause a headache for you guys.

the mod in the 8.1 machine does start up and also doesn't show the WM's either. :(

ok, so the settings/advance says that the launcher is version 1.37 and that the mod is v1.41.... I watched the mod sections actually download last night. I have a fast internet here.

The window that shows downloading did what it was designed for and showed the downloads coming in.

Now once all the downloads were done. the Extraction window which has come since completion of the first download, by the way.
Once all the separate mods are downloaded by the blue moving bar indication, then we should do the extraction and actual installation. and once that is completed then the WinRar Extraction window should go away. Well it DOES not go away. it immediately comes back to run over and over and over again.

I've even gone and downloaded the manual zips for 1.4.0 and 1.4.1 and installed them and now the mod wont even finish loading.

SO something is definitely "fishey" here between that you have and what i get here in this damn Windows 10 that is out now.

Win10 had been working excellent with old games. Now i don't know about it.

THe wave maps aren't in the 11 july 2015 full version. Or at least they aren't in what i get to see in the latest bull crap windows 10. :(

If i don't manually try to put 1.40 and 1.41 in the mod. i can play the skirmish maps but i don't get the wave maps.

I believe this is a part of the Error 255 that i got when i installed the mod.

hi again, so i downloaded and installed your launcher, release date of 11 July 2015, onto my windows 10 desktop computer and i got an error message saying "An unknown error occured:255".

Just thought i'd let you know.

ok thanks :)

hello. i just had to reinstall your great mod. the game installed, but i can't locate the new very fun "wave" maps. They are located under Custom Games then under space, yes?

Sorry for not finding them.

Hope the new GC's are coming along well so we can play GC's soon :)

Thanks!

Thanks very much for the 3.21 version Goafan77. It works great, as your stuff does.

Any chance you could make an Addon that increases supply by say half again as much? or would that definitely push the game past it's workability even with LAA functioning?

thanks.. so is it Q2/2017 yet? just joking.....

Burntstrobe and Wariscool are Santa!!!

Just a small nagging question here.... where and when can we submit applications to do alpha or beta testing of your mod?

hey, the_Farseer, i'm very glad you're still working on this good olde mod. I take it that you're updating it so there will be a new revision of it coming out soon, yes?

I loved the old version when it came out almost 6 years ago, so it seems. Just curious.

just curious, but how do we play the dev one?

how do we use the "Dev.exe" to play the game with any mods?

yes, apparently, my desktop has something very wrong with it. I've taken it to one of the best techs where i live and he couldn't find the culprit, but he knows there is something bad with the desktop.

I'll have to wipe it and start over with a fresh copy of win10.

sorry for a non mod question, but would it be better to go buy a fresh copy of win10 or download a copy of the Media Creation tool from Microsoft?

can present day viruses mess up the paging files on a computer, lavo?

Thanks guy for already starting to work on an update for 1.85

Unfortunately, i'll have to totally redo my computer from scratch. There seems to be a virus on it that just wont go away. SO it's wipe time of this installation of win 10 :(
But you fast modders will probably have the mod ready to work with 1.85 before i get this thing wiped and back up.

i wasn't being unfair to the DLC. i was stating an opinion that everyone should take up which is that they ***** have done it once again and this time even screwed the game so much it doesn't even LOAD their new ******** and run!

I mean we PAY these companies like stardock our good money for a product that is to work all the time. therefore if you, stardock/steam, are going to upload an update that said damn update had better friggin work the absolute FIRST TIME and no other condition should ever exist. if it doesn't work you immediately TAKE THE DAMN THING DOWN and then you fix it.

i totally understand your request, Orion. so here goes....
So today the nutjobs at Steam/Stardock decided without testing to make sure it actually would work, but they **** out a new version 1.85 which has screwed the game so much that the base game doesn't even run.
And half of what makes me so angry is now you guys have to figure out what their stupidity is so you can make the mod playable again.

They can't even announce WTF their revision is or for. Nothing, just change the mod folder and **** the game.
Damn unprofessional of them. And, it was nice f gog to finally get out the 1.84 patch, but seeing as the pricks at steam/stardock screwed that up with 1.85 for NO apparent reason. It's also useless to try to play.
Good thing it's summertime!!!! Hello Nature once again :)

Hey GoaFan, did you know of this crap v1.85 coming out. There is NO revision update or announcement other than some new "PAY STEAM" for some damn DLC. But the mod folder has changed to 1.85 and the base game is unplayable. it doesn't finish loading.

Don't these Steam idiots even test something before they just upload it first to make sure it DOES play? SO unprofessional :(

hi, is anyone else getting this damn "Mods-Rebelion v1.85" bull?

NOW the damn basic game doesn't even finish loading up. WHY can't these so called developers at stardock and steam actually TEST their **** before just uploading it and ******* every thing up.

Steam really is irritating. errrrr

just WOW ! :))

The Application has been sent. Thanks for the consideration.

any particular reason that when i do save a game, that it only saves to the cloud? now i'm noticing this only since v1.84 came out. And this only happens on my ASUS gaming laptop.

I never get any indications that my saves go into the single player saved files location. Isn't that where they should go in the first place?

yes and you can just shut that stupid damn microsoft ******** off... "Smartscreensaver" what a crock of crap!

I've never used that thing.

Hey so your website is broken. I log in and i write a comment, then your site cycles. Kicks me off of it and tells me that i have to log in or that my NAME is bad and it doesn't log my comment.

WE can't use that kind of system if you want testers to give you feedback.

My username is Acer18.

Please email me at mikey1871@g i'm sure you can figure out what comes after the "G" for my email.

thank you. :)

Forum name: Acer18, password still works :)

Language:
I speak English/American very well
Motivation:
I've been playing EAW/FOC since they came out and i've loved the StarGate Franchise ever since it started on Showtimes many years ago in the USA.
I would love to use my years of testing to help make your mod for FOC be a great success. I OD have a high attention to detail.
Game experience:
As i said, I've been playing EAW/FOC since they both came out. I've been playing games since windows 98 came out :) so i think that might be a few years of experience :)
Testing experience:
I'm currently a tester for the foc mod called Phoenix Rising. I've been testing that for a while. maybe 3 years now. I had tested Thrawn's Revenge a few years ago for a while.

With testing Phoenix Rising (PR) i know the rigors of having an XML file come out and having to play every GC, and we have about 9-11 active gc's so that's 18-22 full games for each change. Yes, i know how to take detailed notes for making sure the game strategy the AI is using will satisfy players at the 3 difficulty levels.

BUT i adore StarGate so I won't have a problem testing for long time periods, like 10 game hours straight. As i said,i currently test PR and when i do that, i play for typically 10-12 hours at a stretch.

Modding experience:
Yes, if making a change to an XML file constitutes being a novice modder, then yes i am. i've changed many an XML file in my life.

It would be an honor to test for your Team. :) I've waited over 6 years, whilst you all have been working on this project, for this to come to this point. I'd Love to help speed up the process so this mod could become a GC reality :)

Yours,

Mikey1871 from moddDb.

i have the problem of no wheel zoom on my win10 desktop, but on my asus laptop which also has win10, SinsR and this mod and STA3's mod plays perfectly.

But then in win10 we have no ******* control over the non microsoft ******* updates so we only get their ****! I so hate that stupid ******* company. THEY never can seem to do a ******* thing correctly in the first place!
