Hi all, I've recently started playing BC again after a nearly 4 year absence. My question: The game is limited to 1280x1024 as the highest screen res. I have several installs of BC that I use for different mods and my KM install allows for higher resolutions such as 1920x1080. I would like to also have that option for my other BC installs that are not KM. Where in the scripts can I change that to add higher res to the game and is that even possible to do?
Thanks!

Thanks for the reply! I'll check it out.

The method didn't work for my install. I followed it to the letter and nothing.

BC-Central links?
-
The original links provided by Haxxor1337 were not BC-Central links... I don't know what they were but I kept getting those other trash sites. The new link that was provided now gave me the correct file.

Hey, it finally worked! Thanks so much for all the help!
Now I have another problem, I recently added the DJSupremus to my BC Kobayashi Maru install and for some reason, pulse quantums don't work anymore for any of my installed ships that have that feature. I know that the Supremus has pulse quantums as I have it installed in one of my other BC installs and they work fine... but for some reason, they stopped working in KM.
Note: before I installed the Supremus in KM, any other ship that had pulse quantums worked fine. Once again, any help to fix this would be appreciated!

Can u Upload the Supremus ?
I will test it on my installation :)
-
I'll do that but bear in mind that I have multiple installations of BC on my PC. I have the Supremus installed on a 2 of those BC installations and on one of them, the pulse quantums are working perfectly. Only on my BC KM install are the pulse quantums not working. That goes for any other ship I have installed in BC KM as well. Before I installed the Supremus, the pulse quantums on any ship worked correctly, after the Supremus, that feature stopped working. I'll upload the Supremus tomorrow, it's late for me right now and I'm dead tired :wink:
BTW, if you've never had the Supremus I think you'll really like that ship. It's awesome and one of DJ Curtis's earliest mods for this game. I've been on BCC since 2004 and only recently came back after a nearly 4 year absence.I have MANY mods installed and quite a few that I'm planning on still installing.
BTW, I have one more new problem now (they never stop!), on one of my other non-KM installs, I'm getting the black screen/cursor. It was working fine just yesterday but now, for some reason, I get the black screen/cursor. Of course, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

1. code error in a modifed .py
2. error in a save file
there are 2 main reasons.... Did u install new mods on ur nonKM installation? when yes: which one?

Here's he Supremus.
Note that I've tweaked the HP and added speculars to the textures as this is my personal modded version of this ship.
Please let me know once you install it in your KM if the pulse quantums stop working. If they still work, then we can continue troubleshooting my KM with some other ideas.

Do you mean that the mod works for you or that the pulse quantums work for you? I can't tell by your screenshots.
I wonder if there might be a setting within KM that turns on the pulse quantum feature that may have accidentally been turned off?
Let me know specifically what works for you.
-
what does the console report say when you try to fire those weapons?
could just be as simple as making sure the hardpoint itself is calling for the exact pulse quantum torps in the Projectiles folder... if they dont match, they dont fire...
a console report would help...

I've already checked the console report and there's nothing there that I see that signifies an issue. I've also checked the hardpoint and made sure that the pulse quantums are correctly being pulled to the associated weapon HP.
But now I have another bigger problem, my vid card just took a dump so I can't do anything. Really pisses me off!

No errors!
i can use all Weapons without problems.

II've uploaded the console tracker dump reports for 3 of my BC installs.
- BC KM - No pulse quantums
- BC 2 - Occasional cmd prompt appears stopping gameplay (especially after a battle) and I have to type "resume" to get back to the game and keep playing.
- BC 4 - Same problem as BC 2
I don't know if the console reports will be of any help but here they are just in case anyone can make sense of anything that tells of any errors that hopefully can be fixed.
Also, I've attached a Custom/Ships py file for the WC Nemesis Enterpise E that I just tried to install. When I launched the game, I got the blackscreen/cursor. I narrowed down the problem to this file as when I removed it, the game worked. I looked over the text in the file very carefully and could not find the reason this is not making the game start. I even compared it to another ships py file and except for the names of the ships, they looked identical. If anyone can look at this as well and see if they find something that I didn't see and perhaps fix the issue, that would be awesome.
Thanks!

I test it on KM and it works.

Thanks for the download link, I'll give it a try.
Another question: I have BC KM installed on a separate PC as well as the one I'm having pulse quantum troubles with - which is on a newer PC. If I copy the KM from the other PC and paste it over the main KM that I play with (the one with the issue), it won't delete any new mods that I've installed on that KM correct? I ask because the KM on the other PC has working pulse quantums and it would probably fix the KM that has the issue but the KM that has the issue has some newer mods in it that I don't have in the other, older install of KM.
-
I guess its a mod incompatibility.
-
Is there anyone else that's experienced the pulse quantums not working on KM or non-KM installs?
If possible, I'd really like to fix this issue.
Update 9/15/2020: Fixed the problem.

It was silly actually, it's been so long since I played the game that I forgot to change one of the game settings that firing disruptors also fires pulse weapons! :funny :hithead:
