EaW and FoC Mods / What files would I have to change to make weapons be able to pierce shields?
« on: April 19, 2018, 05:05:37 PM »
I was playing a Star Trek mod called "The Trek Wars" http://www.moddb.com/mods/trek-wars-revival which is the only Star Trek mod that I know of that has the Dominion (other than Galaxy at War, but I couldn't install that one no matter what). The Jem'Hadar's Phased-Polaron Beams don't skip shields like they're supposed to, a criticism that I and many other people made since the Consortium has mass drivers and is OP as all hell, and the Rebels and Empire have proton torpedoes on their bombers and ships which also ignore shields.

Are there files I can go into to make the Dominion's phased polaron beams skip shields too?

Solved: I thank DragonNation5523 for letting me in on what I need to do; go into Projectiles.xml and change "Projectile_Does_Shield_Damage" from "Yes" to "No".

My flagship would either be called the Hegemon. Either that or the Warlock.

I have to say I was rather surprised Trump won. Of course, the opposition was Hillary Clinton. Hillary's arrogance (and that of her campaign) and the DNC corruption regarding the blackmailing of Bernie Sanders was probably enough to convince the Rust Belt that she wasn't "fighting for them". This is the fifth time in the history of my country that the winner of the election lost the popular vote to his opponent.

IMO, Trump had to have been the most defeatable person you could race against. Hillary losing to Obama was understandable, but Trump is a living nightmare.

Despite saying that, the pro-Hillary protesters and rioters who slammed Trump supporters and conspiracy theorists who called the election "rigged" are now calling for the abolition of the Electoral College because their candidate lost. But unlike Al Gore, Hillary Clinton conceded defeat upon reading the writing on the wall. They may as well accept their candidate's decision.

It's the end of the world as we know it, and I don't feel fine.

Now my suggestion https://tse1.mm.bing.net/th?&id=OIP.M973348579b8e3fd0ccaf24eade97811fo0&w=300&h=225&c=0&pid=1.9&rs=0&p=0&r=0

This.

I recognize it from Republic Commando, but I don't actually know what class of ship it is, or it's manufacturers. All I know is it's capable of operating in a planet's atmosphere, and that it's probably too small to be an actual dreadnought.

So I felt like steamrolling some Rebel scum and started a Shadow Hand play through. However, it seems the NR just sort of sits there and meekly awaits its death (as it should, but definitely disappointing). Is there something wrong with the NR in that one (I seem to recall that was the case in previous versions but I'm not sure).

Does that happen on all difficulties?

The Lounge / Re: MySafeSavings.exe malware. Can anyone help me?
« on: May 28, 2016, 06:56:42 PM »
I think I may have gotten rid of it, but I'm not sure if it was the result of me installing MalwareBytes.

The computer was lagging and I opened Task Manager again try again to stop mysafesavings.exe from running long enough for me to edit the ".exe" to something else.

I think it worked. When I did that it couldn't reactivate itself because I made it an unopenable type of file the trojan couldn't recognize fast enough during the lag. The computer lagging was one of its weapons, but it backfired! I foiled MySafeSavings evil plan!  :laugh:

The Lounge / MySafeSavings.exe malware. Can anyone help me?
« on: May 27, 2016, 08:42:14 PM »
Earlier today my brother was downloading maps for Minecraft Demo from what I'll guess is a website arousing suspicion. I just got on my computer and have been dealing with undeletable adware called "mysafesavings.exe". I can't delete or uninstall it because its always running, and every time I try to close it with task manager it immediately starts up again in less than a second. I am using Windows 10.

I have since deleted the Minecraft demo and everything he downloaded, tried changing the permissions of the files in SafeSavings folder in ProgramData by changing the data in its backup file with gibberish, and its still running itself!

Does anyone else have experience with this malware? Does anyone have any clue what I can do to get rid of this cyber-bully from Hell? I'm about to lose it and jump out the window!

Begging for his life?
It would fit into the Idea "In the end all Sith are cowards"
But I can't imagine Dooku begging.

I don't think every Sith in the Galaxy is cowardly. Darth Vader and, before his character was soiled by TCW, Darth Maul were two with who didn't cower in the face of death. Vader had a sense of honor, despite being mostly evil.

That aside,  I loved the book Boba Fett when I was younger. I first read it out of sheer curiosity, but I loved the style of the book enough that it was among few books I've ever read that I completed in a matter of days. I would like to get and read the sequels one day.

Until version 2.2 comes out (where I would play as Zsinj's Empire), I usually play as the Pentastar Alignment. Note that I usually play with an increased chance for raid fleets.

Attack strategy: I have an entire fleet to ensure I don't lose, but usually I will send a gunship to initiate the battle and hide in a corner while the raid fleet attacks. if the raid fleet is pathetic and gets destroyed by the defending forces, I will send the rest of my fleet in Bull Formation. A typical fleet of mine consists of

About 4 gunships/corvettes
2 SSD's
4 Frigates
1 Cruiser/Battlecruiser
1 Lucrehulk (late game)

Defense Strategy: I often try to keep a substantial fleet with at least 2 frigates, but preferably including at least one SSD. I count on the incoming raid fleets to disrupt the enemy attack. My fleet is usually in either line or V formation (depending on the map)

6 gunships/corvettes
At least 2 frigates
At least 1 SSD

1. I'm trying to get some new maps on Battlefront but I really can't find any that I'm interested in I would prefer one that does Space to Land but I good map would be nice it would also need to be compatible with battlefront conversion mod.

2. I also want a new mod for Vanilla EAW I've got AEM at the moment and I want something new.

Also has Filefront closed down or something it's not there anymore?

I've had the same problem accessing FileFront. I think it acually worked once or twice last month but lately it just gives me some connection error. Its probably dead or something.

As far as Battlefront mods & maps go, you could try either GameFront or SWBFGamers.com

The Lounge / Anyone else play Space Empires IV/V?
« on: August 22, 2015, 01:22:10 PM »
Possibly the very first computer game I've ever played (since I was 4 years old I think) was Space Empires IV. SE5 is out, but I'm not really used to playing it. Space Empires IV came out in 1999 but is compatible with Windows XP up to Windows 7 (possibly newer OS as well). Have any of you heard of it?

I was able to create my own empires in that game very easily, as ai and race scripts can be edited in readmes. I took the Galactic Empire from the "Star Wars II" mod and created Zsinj's Empire, but I couldn't get the Zsinj icon working so I settled for Thrawn's portrait.

I'm working on my own book about an Imperial Warlord faction I invented that takes place in 6 ABY. Has anyone else written any Fanfic? If so, I might read it if the subject interests me.

X-Wing Alliance is on Steam for $10, if you're looking to go through it again.  Right now they've got the entire X-Wing game series.

Don't have a credit card or a job to maintain one.

The Sovereign-class Star Dreadnought is my favorite for a number of reasons. The Eclipse is bigger and more powerful, but I like the Sovereign's design better, it costs less, has a axial superlaser, and isn't as big of a target as the Eclipse.

I could have sworn I've seen one in that old game X-Wing Alliance I used to play years ago, but I'm probably just thinking of an Executor-class. I miss playing that game, but it seems I've lost the disk  :\'(

It's Essence of War, currently with the same factions anyone else has available. As I said in the first one, I plan to do stuff with the new factions when they're actually ready (right now there's not much to show)

I'm not really one to be overly anal about uniqueness to Warlord factions aside from the faction colors being different. Can't wait to play as the brown Zsinj's Empire. I don't mean to pry, but I saw in the video you posted on YouTube that the factions Warlord Zsinj, Greater Maldrood, and Eriadu Authority were added because they appeared on the faction choice list when you chose to play as the Empire of the Hand. I know I should be patient and I don't mean to sound pushy, but are any of the 3 functional yet?

Zsinj may be an impressive SOB that required an enemy mine situation to tear down his power, but you don't see his homeworld being the capital of a powerful government.

Fondor was nowhere near his territory, so obviously it couldn't be his capital. Zsinj was never really the sentimental type anyway.

Naturally you beat up on the poor Pentastar Alignment, my favorite faction in this game so far second only to Zsinj's Empire.

I understand that the EotH is your favorite faction and its not that I hold that against you at all, but the only problem is you probably wont be able to see the other factions. What factions are there in the GC you're playing? I'm having a difficult time finding out which because Adobe/Schockwave Flash is mostly uncooperative on the computer I'm currently forced to use, and you keep doing stuff so I can't pause in time to see who's taking who's turf.

Star Wars Discussion / How to change faction colors in Empire at War?

This question of mine extends to other mods, namely the mod; Rise of the Crime Lords. I want to change the color of the Hutt Cartel and Mandalorians in GC's for that mod, but I don't know what to edit to do that. Would anybody tell me?

Will The Hunt For Zsinj be remade so that the Imperial Remnant in that GC will be replaced by Zsinj's Empire (or "Warlord Zsinj" as the faction is called according to spoilers) in 2.2 as it should be?
