Does anyone have an alternate link for the base package? I keep getting permission denied.

I got all the packages except the races part 2, keep getting:

permission denied "Moksha" by Vas may be available for download from Amazon.

looks like some kind of DRM reporting problem for the music files.

Superb music in this mod. Really gives the game a different feel whilst playing. Keep up the good work [&o]

Issue with Mod

Post by ccc2501 »

Does anyone else have the issue were upon starting a new game with this mod, all characters are available for all positions. Hundreds are available. I'm pretty sure that's not correct.

Anyone else see this?

Do you mean you already have lots of characters in place ? No I don't get that. I've played as the Wekkarus and Dlakar and have had no problems so far. Are you sure you set the game up properly ?

There are quite a few changes to default in this mod I noticed. If you look at how ships are set up in the design menu you'll notice that you start with damage control unit, Countermeasures and basic proximity array already researched and most ships and bases have them fitted at the start

So I am getting a pretty massive run time error whenever I try to start a game. I switch the theme, go to to create a game and it is almost a full page. It looks like the game may be repeating everything, making double. When I look at the files inside the mod, I have A.62 and then the normal stuff in the same location such as design templates, dialog, so on and so forth. When I then look in the A.62 it shows the most of the same things, their are a couple that are not included however. I followed the instructions exactly as stated, so not sure why it would be created double.

Your file structure should be - C:\Matrix Games\Distant Worlds Universe\Customization\Beyond extended alpha. When you unpacked the zip did you take the folder from inside ? That's a common error with new themes. There are 2 folders, one is a holder. You must take the folder from inside and put it in to the Customization folder in the main game folder

I did, I use mods A LOT. I am big on Paradox stuff and starsector, It is just odd. It shows as the standard vanilla folder, and then i copy the a62 into the alpha folder. When I go into that folder should it show as a62 or should I take out the insides and put them in the folder without replacing? I tried replacing that also did not work, just became stuck on creating galaxy.

If it does not work, just delete whatever is inside and start all over again. Unless you did some changes, in which case you move the contents away until you get the basic mod working.

The structure should be:

Customization/ModNameFolder/<contents>

And contents should be the races, components.txt, shipdesigns and whatever the the actual mod files are named. They should match the structure in the core distant worlds folder.

Any folder name a62 or similar should not be present anywhere, I assume it is the contents of the a62 folder that should be inside the ".../Customization/Beyond Extended Alpha/ folder.

Yes what Bingeling says is right. In your customization folder it should just be Beyond Extended Alpha and all contents of the mod inside. Also remember that you have to combine the 2 race folders for this mod if you downloaded the music files as well

[font="Handwriting"] Lovely. Surely it is something to build upon. Yet... them Securans. How do they go from beautiful, to atrocious, to horny??? I have not the slightest, but please, put it back. The original is purrfect. And speaking of purrfect... the Zenox... hmm.. you know what? Forget about it. I'll do a complete makeover... ty.

Also, if you ever do come back to this galaxy, you could use Google Drive to upload 15gb's worth of data, free. More suggestions? Umm... details, more details, and lot's of details. The possibilities are out there... farewell. [/font]
