On the new pilot button thing, yes, I did a mouseover on every part of the panel, and there is no new pilot button. At all.

I threw that chär in there to test some things, then forgot to delete it.

And no, that's not intentional. I'll add it to the bug list.

It is better to feed the goat than it is today.

BTW, if you don't already know, I've set up a Bloopers Reel for SFA (see link in signature). You can submit your own picts via my hotmail account, or you could just put it up in a link and I'll transfer it over to the server the Reel is on. You can also include your very own humerous caption if you'd like (to the one you submit, or any of them). If I find it hilarious enough, I'll include it in the Reel.

Enjoy ;).

Ugh...

  1. Why can't I create a new pilot? I had to load one from a regular game.
  2. Why do none of the planets (including Sol) sell ships?

That chär's not supposed to be there? Hmm. Oh well. Posted Image

Cool. I hope it gets fixed, 'cause it's annoying!

By the way, I can usually destroy a spöb in 1-3 shots. Bug?

Gah... I can't unstuff the file without an "Error 3". How do I correctly unstuff this file ( the big one)?

1. You can. The New Pilot button is the two bare panels on the far left of the helm console. Hitting "N" works as well.
2. Ship availability is set by a series of tiered ncbs based on your Starfleet rank that is initiated by the first mission in the game. If you just used an existing pilot from another game, those ncbs would not be set.

What version of Stuffit are you using?

Try getting an older version of Stuffit (version 6.x works great for me).

Now I can unstuff it, but when I start up it says I'm missing resource files 500-504 and 800 and sprite 10000. Says will now quit error file Sprite.c, line 838.

How many is it supposed to take? I might have exaggerated the numbers a little, but it always takes less than ten and usually no more than five. I don't think the phasers are that powerful. 🙂

The plugin file's type and creator codes got messed up. You can fix it in ResEdit by opening the file info and changing the creator to Növä and the type to Npďf (if it's a plugin). I'm not sure about what UT's format's are, but that should work, nonetheless.

They're not plug-ins, they're standard Nova Data files. All I did was delete the Nova resources and replace them with my own.

Yeah, but I can't remember the type code for Nova Data files offhand. 😛

If you are on a PC, you left resource.map somewhere it shouldnt be. Delete it.
The missing nova.rez problem produces a different effect (namely a crash when trying to do anything at the main screen).

Dude, what the hell? Leave him alone. He doesn't have to be releasing the Alpha, He doesn't even have to be making the damn TC. Stop whining.

Why are you censoring words that don't need censoring?

Hmm...maybe because it's his intellectual property, and he can do whatever he wants with it, and he's already defined strict parameters as to when people who aren't on his development team can and can't see his work? Perhaps?

You had a week to download it. Once it leave alpha and enters beta, I'll probably see about having EVula add it to the Add-Ons page. Until then, people are just going to have to be patient.
