yeah you miss the fact that when you abort mission and go back in that the mods are not working and all scripts are turned off while in the mutators they are on.

Subtitles going fast
Sounds turning off (fully) after a qb except Music
After gone to Red alert on the D-Bridge and then back to Green Alert the roof lights stay blue. (EDIT: I Started bc again and now the roof lights act as they should.
Every fraction of a second the game stops for a milisecond or something)

Just though i would say what my problems are.

ok ive split this off from the main topic. heres a list of what we know about so far: red alert lights not being set correctly at first use on dbridge did i miss any?

-it was actually on both the D and E bridges at the start of a QB "fight" [& the D when QB 1st starts up] - where I have to go to Yellow or Green alert manually, and then manually go back to Red Alert again to make the lighting work right

I had the screwed up speech subtitles when i was mission scripting and thought i had buggy code :lmao: :rofl:
Seems to work fine in the Dry Dock System, however when i enter Starbase 12 Saffi and Kiska speak like s**t, i am definately sure that this is not a problem with me and just thought i would re-iterate that this is happening.

Also, Certain textures on the Left hand side near Brex on the E bridge are doubling over.

The jedifx will be optimised for performance "nanofx2 stylie" atm the effect sequences don't die when they finish so they just use more and more memory.

Argh! that's where the memory leak comes from!

(OK, one of the leaks in this game)

I have a bug where,
If I start a battle and switch to bridge mode (default = tactical) to watch the battle from inside, and then I need to go outside (to select no target or whatever), when I come back in, there is no talking, fast subtitles, and the original game's bridgeloop sound.

Let's go this at one problem at the time:

===
Subtitles going fast

Are you outside the bridge when this happens?
If your inside the bridge, do you hear the crew?

===
Sounds turning off (fully) after a qb

And this can't be resolved by going out of the bridge and back?

===
red alert lights not being set correctly at first use on dbridge

This could be due to the fact that NanoFX changes stuff with the alerts in QB. A similar problem exists with FTech and other mods.

===
rear status panels on dbridge not changing (wtf?)

Could anyone give me their BridgePluginConfig.py (in scripts/Custom/) who is having this problem?

===
unexplained issue when installing BP on a fresh install involving multiplayer scripts

I'm afraid this script isn't tested with MP, mostly because I don't play in MP at all.

===
various jedifx issues

I'd say to the carelessness with system resources.

If it are BSODs, it's mostlikly due to the fact that it uses FoundationTriggers. This is distributed with NanoFXv2Beta, FoundationTechnologies, KM, and various others. If I remember, I'll make a separate download tomorrow.

===
'MVAM maps' issues

No ship has MVAM maps. And it only uses it when it does. So what are the symptoms?

===
mods stop working after ending a battle and starting another (via menu) (i get this anyway so im not sure its a BP specific problem)

I always have the problem that starting a new missions crashes my BC (same with quiting BC, or ending a mission).
This has been like this since before BP.

Okay, new update on the D Bridge Status Panels. I went in to BridgePluginConfig, and i found the problem with the status panels. {
"""TACTICAL_LOOK_AT_VS""" was set to 1. i changed it to 0 and now it changes. However, it only switches from green alert to yellow. When I go to Red alert, the status Panels remain at whatever status i was in prior. I believe the problem is located somehwere in Scripts/Custom/Autoload/Galaxy Bridge Advanced.py, however, i'm not that good at reading scripts. I'm just going to paste it in below, if anyone on the BridgePlugin Team sees anything wrong, please point it out...Thank You

Dont know wether this is the right area to post in, however, I have recently installed "Bridge Pluggin" its a great mod, but for some reason....probably of my own doing, the LCARS and red Alert Lights on my DBridge/EBridge wont flash, and where there is meant to be LCARS there is a black space, can anyone help?

Moved.. next time look before making a new thread. -Mark

Well I downloaded the plugin and I was off the walls from what I have read about it and I have followed the instructions thoroughly at least 5 times and everytime I always get the black screen and cursor when I try to start BC up. Can anyone tell me what I need to do?

The mod is awesome, 3E. Simply greatness incarnate. LJ's been raving about it for a while, but now I can really see the awesomeness.

Most of my problems have already been covered, and, with the UMM options, I am able to fix some of the most annoying ones (that sound muting thing in the bridge? Profoundly irritating). I think the only new one I have here is a modified version of CaptainJamesMartin's:

It's not that you can't get to Red Alert; it's just that going to Yellow Alert causes the LCARS to "stick" at Yellow; you can't make them go up to Red or back down to Green once you've been at Yellow. No idea what's causing that.

Also, do you have a minimum/recommended requirements list? I'm considering uninstalling because I *think* the active LCARS are causing a .5 second lag every .93 seconds, starting after about 5 minutes of game play.

Better yet--is there any way to have the basic scripting backbone of BP (basically, the Foundation triggers) while using stock bridges? This would allow me to use BP-requiring scripts (JediFX, WalkFX v0.1.4 SitDown) without using those demanding bridges.

Awesome, awesome job. So beautiful I could cry. But I won't.

next release ill release a low version aswell as normal..

also regarding what u were saying about active lcars... the sets included with the preview dont use it so it isnt that..

bare in mind you can disable practically everything in BP through UMM, if your having trouble running something the best thing to do for now is probably to disable it.

thanks for your positive comments

I know its only a beta at the moment and that Im probably gonna need it for the TOS connie bridge (I hope a non-Bridge Plugin dependant version is released) but after installing Bridge Plugin, alot of my sounds have dissapeared, I dont like the bridge positions where some of the crew are and it makes my game last about a minute then it crashes to my desktop. Im sorry 3rd Era. I know that youve put alot of hours into this mod but I just dont think its for me.

The "trick" with the BP is that it doesn't force you to use anything, if you don't have BP, then it isn't used.

As for you sound issues, please, read.
It's a _feature_, it muffles the bridge sounds when in space, and the space sound when on the bridge, this is a plugin to BP and it can be disabled.

I actually think I know what he means. After you end combat and start another one, sounds sometimes disappear completely, inside the bridge and out. The bridge background noise is raised in volume. Playing around with the plugin sound toggles may affect it, but it could have been something else as well. I'll try to test it out so that I can give a more specific description by this weekend.

try disabling the sound part of BP and then tell me if you still have problems.

SuperSmeg: you downloaded an unfinished mod and discovered BUGS, someone call the shock hotline!

Dont insult me please Mark. I tried turning off everything using UMM but I still get the problems. Ive decided to uninstall BC for the moment and make a clean reinstall of the game. I havnt deleted the Bridge Plugin download so I still have the ZIP file it came in. I know its something that the 3rd Era team doesnt want to hear but I dont think i'll be reinstalling Bridge Plugin again for a while. Im sorry. I would not like to make any enemys around here.

I have been doing a step by step test of BP today to try and recreate and identify the errors reported; heres the result.

Installed BC
Installed BC1.1
Installed Foundation
Installed BP

BSOD- File ".Scripts\Custom\Autoload\RunBridgeEffects.py", line 42, in? class BridgeEffects_PlayerChangeShip(Foundation.TriggerDef):

Works with single player, not with quickbattle - "No module named Fixes20030217"

QuickBattle now works
Texture swapping set incorrectly after abort mission
Singleplayer still working

No adverse effects

Single Player no longer works (constructor code recorded)

All QBA scripts work without issue

UMM Required Reinstalling
Bridge Plugin (sound plugin) Required Reinstalling
QBA Stops working after abort mission
Subtitles Flash up on screen when outside of bridge (not inside)

No Adverse Effects

Update on the once-a-second slowdown:
I've installed a few ships since I installed the BP,
and my slowdown bug has definitely changed behaviour. It now only occurs when the bridge is at red alert (and yellow, I think).

If I power the weapons and sheilds manually, but stay at condition green, it does not occur. My guess is - heavy animation loops??

Any particular bridge?

Or just the bridges that (can make) use (of) BP?

Hmmm, I have not tested that...

Sounds like an excuse to play BC!

I'll take the case!

Thank you.

Most of the errors I see are related to JediFX, or rather, a couple of the same.

So far I've seen one problem with Static FX and an old problem with NanoFX, I guess you warped in that session?
Or a ship blew up?

My prob is is that during having a battle in QB all the sounds cut out instantly, but when I am going to set everything up all the sounds work fine.

Suggestions? Can't quite find the console prob.

Also are exploding sparks n' stuff within the bridge supposed to make some kind of kaboom?
