Cool! Will check it out ASAP.

I downloaed the mod, patch, sound file and the DS9 file and when I load the game, the screen is bright pink and I can barely see the initial character I get. I extracted the mod into the BTS Mod folder and the sound file into the asset folder and it replaced the existing sound folder in there.

 

[Agent327]

Well, that's not right. (Although I agree the installation instructions might be clearer.)

It means that some art is not loading. Did you put the .pak files into the assets directory instead of just the sounds? Without them you will be missing virtually every piece of art in the mod.

Note: CustomAssets won't work the the .pak files but it will with the sounds. The .pak files should go into assets and the sounds should go into customAssets.

 

[ruffriders23]

No, I extracted the mod itself into the mod folder and the sound folder into the asset folder. I didn't think I needed to mess with the folders.

 

[deanej]

What about the art? That's what those .pak files are. They need to be put in the Beyond the Sword\Assets directory.

 

[ruffriders23]

No, I downloaded the files and extracted them where they needed to be. MOd in mod folder and sound in the asset folder to replace the existing sound folder in there.

 

[deanej]

What did you do with the .pak files? The art and sound pack includes art as well as sound.

 

[ruffriders23]

I put the entire sound folder in the asset folder and it replaced the one that was already there.I didn't think the sound folder would have art in it.

 

[deanej]

You need to copy every file in the zip file there (except the readme), not just the sound folder.

 

[ruffriders23]

And where do the FPK files go?

Hej there...is still have the GFC Error: can't load the primary control theme...i installed everything in the right directories...[so, not in MyGames...except the sound files...] i need a little advise now...

 

[deanej]

Do you have a working install of Final Frontier? Star Trek uses the Final Frontier theme, so if the Final Frontier mod is damaged Star Trek may stop working.

 

[Linie]

you're right...sth is messed up there...will make a fresh installation now...and we'll see....thx

I've released patch 3 for beta 3. It includes all prior fixes and introduces the following additional changes:
-Further reduced barbarian strength increase rate
-Tweaked building capture code to prevent bugs

Hi all,

I just downloaded this mod along with the art and sound zip and the patch zip. I've unzipped the main mod to the MOD folder, the .FPK's to the Assets folder and the sound folder to the customassets folder.

When I click on ok to start the game after picking my race, world settings, difficulty, etc. I immediately CTD. I'm using the 3.17 patch for BtS.

Anyone else ever have problems with getting the mod to open up a game right off the bat?

I've also got pink screens displayed when trying to select a leader.

 

[deanej]

Something must have gone wrong when you installed the .fpk files. The pink means that the game can't find the art. Could you make sure that the .fpk files are in Assets and not in some other folder inside Assets?

Hi,

Thanks for your quick response. First of all my bad on the CTD. I recently had to reformat my hard drive and when I reinstalled BtS I forgot to unpack the 3.17 patch. Once I did that problem solved.

I still have the pink screens for the leader heads as well as for the environment but I will try to check on those .FPK placements you mentioned. Will check on this tomorrow as I'm off to bed now!
