Binary Dawn Overhaul

[MercantileInterest]

Weird. Can't imagine how a former could crash the game. Will investigate.

Just uploaded version 1.3. Successfully tested it with different types of formers. Recon Rover, let me know if you're still experiencing problems and also whether you're using Yitzi's patch.

Okay, I continue to crash when using Former units. I am using Yitzi's Patch with Binary Dawn (the latest version).

I have a save game to provide. All you need to do is Press R when the former activates and the game will crash.

How do I upload the saved game file to share?

Crash Game Press R.SAV

There we go!

Using the latest version of Binary Dawn with Yitzi's latest patch, the saved game works perfectly. Pressing R doesn't crash anything.

Just to be clear, you've installed the contents of the factions folder, the contents of the main files folder, the contents of Yitzi's patch and lastly the contents of the Yitzi patch compatibility folder, each time copying over any duplicate files?

Passed along.

BTW, I've linked V1.3 here https://www.facebook.com/groups/131175990236847/ and here https://www.facebook.com/AlphaCentauri2Forum/  You've hinted you were on Facebook - if you were to share, comment, 'like' or anything of the sort, it would only help get your work into more hands...

Glorious new tech tree for the next version. Might make an artsier version later on.

BUncle, would you take down the old versions of Binary Dawn? Don't like cluttering up the downloads folder.

[Buster's Uncle]

Done.

-It would be a really good idea for you to track down the threads in Chiron News Network for the previous versions, and edit in the link to the latest - just in case those have been linked anywhere...

Delete yesterday's update?

[MercantileInterest]

Please, it didn't update properly. Zero size file and all that. Will see about editing those links.

[Buster's Uncle]

Okydoke - done.

University research only requires 80% of normal research points. This allows them to max out research in social engineering.

It is exactly like that in vanilla. What changed?

[MercantileInterest]

It's a change I copied blindly from Smaniac. My guess is that there's a max research rating in SE and that this circumvents that.
