Thanks, the splash screen was showing ver 7.4 so I overwrote that with 7.5 .... it still shows 7.4 but Ive started a new plot game and XTM seems to be working now (atleast is says it is on the checker) .
I know a half million isnt much but Id upgraded and stuff as well so it was a pain restarting, the first credits are the hardest to come by.

Don't worry about that. The splash screen for 7.5 was never updated. It's always said 7.4. lol

Hello all Just got my xtm mode working copied my vanilla file and have my ships/stations/credits. here's the problem I see all the sectors in Universe Map(but the sectors are not connected) but if i got to jump to any sector its not showing any gates to jump too??

Any ideas or must I fly round every sector again to be able to jump to them??

Sounds like you need to explore the universe again.

You could also try the "Reveal Universe" cheat, to make sure you game is working properly,

Having some game issues, so did a re-install. I have a few questions about XTM now.

My process has been: Install Reunion, Update to 2.5, add bonus plugins, and then XTM. New game.

After installing XTM I am getting many "Read Text ..." when I am in the SE while picking a ware. Wares I know, like Military shields, are listed properly, but there are now about as many Read Texts as known wares. This had been happening before with no known issues, but a clean slate isolates things a little. I do the artificial life settings and XTM "Passes", the Log file is two lines of AL Engines Registered.

Do I need EMP for this, or am I good?

On a side note, I had issues with the first (I think) Ortas mission. The one with bringing goods to the ship in Mealstorm. It wasn't taking my Nvidium. Various restarts were tried, but my only fix was removing the Nvidium check from the script.

Edit: Forgot to add, extracted XTM_0.7.5_Full.exe to the Reunion folder, but that was it. Older versions of XTM seem to have a few installation steps, but not with this?

Thanks

I would look at the following:

How to REINSTALL XTM

Install XTM from scratch

Then once you have done one of the above:

How to check if XTM is working correctly

mfw you didn't read my post.

No, you don't need the EMP mod. Installing it would even cause some troubles.

You're looking at the wares through the script editor, that means you're also seeing the unused or technically used wares. These do not require any text entries. So you will always get readtexts when looking at the TWare files directly, like you did. If your installation has passed the integrity test, and you do not experience any readtexts in the game itself, the installation is fine. To understand these readtexts in the SE you'd need to dig a bit into how the TWare files are used.

The OTAS mission won't work with the wrong Nividium

I assume you scripted it in. There are two wares named Nividium, and only one is working. To be sure, you should mine the Nividium yourself, or collect it from savage spur (the hidden container). Otherwise, just script in both kinds of Nividium, just to be on the safe side. By the way you should have the exact amount matching the requirement on board, not more, not less. It'll accept Nividium only in a single transfer

Good to know about EMP, thanks.

XTM looks good to go.

As for the Nvidium, I found it is a flying ware in Unknown Sector 2. Perhaps that was the wrong kind... Anyway, no one else seems to have this issue, so I will just do it differently the next time around.

An update:

So, instead of doing something different, I decided to do the same thing (I don't know if the spoiler is needed, but...)

Spoiler

Show

-Met up with Sohnen
-Switched over to my XL ship and delivered the EC
-Flew west where the Flying Ware dump of Quantum Tubes, Silicon, and Nvidium was found (last time it was in the sector west then south)
-Loaded up the XL and flew 5km from Sohnen
-Sohnen accepts QT and Silicon, but not Nvidium
-Decided to cheat 10 Nvidium in.
-The first Nvidium in the list is the same as the Nvidium I had, nothing happened
-The second Nvidium was added, and this was a success.
-Now off to Paranid, who if they werent pissed already, certainly are now after I destroyed a bunch of their Demeters

So, I can only say that the Nvidium I found in Unknown Sector 2 was the wrong Nvidium, and that the amount of Nvidium in the ship can be greater than 5.

As a side: I use the Revive Dead Ships script. Turns out Sohnen is considered a Dead Ship, so it can be interesting to find (basically idles looking for an enemy).

XTM is unable to load the job scripts.
I spawned a few Shonen capitals using LV's cheat scripts to fight me. They don't fire at me.
Also, i have downloaded the script package linked on the thread. But the plugin manager id unable to open it. Something related to old format i guess.

Buck_Rogers · Post by **Buck_Rogers** » Fri, 5. Aug 11, 08:26

I'd say, your using an old version of XTM. 0.7.5 does not require the script package you mentioned.

Deeparth · Post by **Deeparth** » Fri, 5. Aug 11, 18:33

I am running 0.7.5
Why isn't it able to load the job files?

Buck_Rogers · Post by **Buck_Rogers** » Sun, 7. Aug 11, 19:26

I could be the way you installed XTM? Have you tried a clean install?

askerer · Post by **askerer** » Wed, 10. Aug 11, 03:23

I'm trying to install it, yet have no idea what i'm doing. Can someone help me? This is sad, I know. lol

Post by **X2-Illuminatus** » Wed, 10. Aug 11, 10:25

Best to ask mod related questions in the mod's thread, as suggest by the forum rules.

Buck_Rogers linked some installation guides on the previous page.

Hi trying to download XTM but cant seem to get any links to work probably just me, but this is the forum im trying to download from and all I get is 404 http://forum.egosoft.com/viewtopic.php?t=117990
I also tried another link on a diffrent thread but all it did was say waiting on page to load.

Post by **X2-Illuminatus** » Fri, 12. Aug 11, 10:35

Not sure where you found that linked topic, but it's one of the old XTM topics. I merged your post now with one of the current XTM topics, which are usual on the first page of this forum.

***merged***

The download links in the first post of this thread are working.

Edit: corrected typo.
