[quote who="VarekRaith" reply="294" id="2394011"]Alright, I got the file and cast it a couple of dozen times. No error! *knocks on wood. Kitkun also had this problem I believe. Edit; Why did this seem to happen only a few of us? [/quote] Feel free to share the file with whoever needs it. We'll be including it in the hotfix as well.

[quote who="VarekRaith" reply="289" id="2393960"]Blair, the Nano Hull Repair ability doesn't play its sound correctly. I have no clue why. The entity file seems correct. The sound file itself seems correct, works in Winamp. It also throws up a 'can't create hardware buffer error'. The sound files are all in the correct directory as well. Is this .ogg file encoded differently than the others? [/quote] I think we've found the problem. Can you write me

It's been like this for since the earliest updates (probably 1.5 years ago) and it was neccessary to make load times acceptable. We provide you with the tools to convert them to text (the ConvertData's) as well as instructions on how to do it (the modding downloads). Also, Harpo has created tools that make it even easier. Finally, in the past I have provided the text versions of all the files as a seperate download. I may do that again as soon as the hotfix is released.

[quote who="JJBuck2" reply="270" id="2392354"]In a word "drool" as Astax says. On another note, this is probably something that will be included in the hotfix but when the Akkan (yes I know, I just love this ship now) colonizes a planet the planets info card doesn't say anything about the extraction boost it's supposed to get. Just wanted to make sure that gets out there, though I know the devs are probably aware. Cant wait for the fix, I've been drooling over the TEC update

[quote who="ice27828" reply="67" id="2391049"] Last time you said the package would be ready for 1.03 in a few days, yet you only released dev version instead of the "whole" package citing problems, so are you giving us guarantee that there will be more than just the dev program? [/quote] I'm not sure what else is needed besides the ConvertData's (already included) and the dev build. None of the other tools need changing to be compatible.

[quote who="Whippersnapper-DirtySanchez" reply="254" id="2390811"] Quoting JohnJames, reply 245 It happens with assailants as well. Blair said he addressed this problem from a previous patch, but the problem still persist It still persists--as of v1.04? What I'm asking is, with the latest patch, is charged missile perma-freeze still an issue? [/quote] It should already be fixed. If it happens in 1.04 (non-modded), send the

[quote who="rugby9" reply="10" id="2390694"]I noticed that when the Akkan(sp?) uses it's colonize ability on an asteroid it spawns an indestructable neutral mine. I am using maps created from the map editor under entrenchment 1.03 is this the problem? Right place to post? Thx - J [/quote] This is fixed. Will be included in tomorrow's hotfix.

[quote who="Blair Fraser" reply="243" id="2390585"]I'm theorizing it's a random chance based on whether the planet is colonized first or the buff activates first. We've never actually seen this behavior (and I can't reproduce it as we speak) but an examination of the code shows the potential for the colonize to occur after the extractor buff. We are implementing a hypothetical fix now. Can anyone else reproduce his results? [/quote] It's been fixed. Hotfix tomorrow alon
