Multiple Errors on mod.....Unnamed AI with FQM v107

Submitted by Isdahl on Thu, 2007-12-13 13:37. Space Empires V General

i downloaded and installed the Unnamed mod A.I. with FQM, but everytime i select the mod on start new game i get the following errors....." Could not load C:\program files\strategy first\malfador machinations\space empires compilation\se5\pictures\effects\starglow.bmp.......effects\nebulaclouds bmp.01-05".

Was wondering if anyone knows how to fix this or what i need to run it? Do i need to download FQM seperate first? Or should i just uninstall and download a different Unnamed mod? Thank you for your time to read this.

‹ Is it possible to eliminate migration? Should I bother? ›

Hi guys I had same proublem to? I installed the media pack as instructed by the media files and still got some errors as planets were apearing without any colour?

I copyed the media pack files again into the Unnamed mod with FQM v107
and it seems to be working fine now.

Hope this helps

Well, i downloaded the file from the link, but my comp ( windows XP doesn't recognize the file type or who made it ). Do i need some kind of program to un pack it? or something? It didn't even download as a file file, looks like an icon of a white piece of paper with its top right corner folded..its not an .rar or .zip thats for sure, says its a torrent file? hmmmm so now what? Cool

Ok, installed all 3 rar files from the site, and still get the same exact error. To be honest, when i downloaded the BM mod, everything went where it was supposed to and the mod works great, thats the way a mod should install, but this other mod is being difficult and i dont want to waste this much time trying to get it to work so its history, i'm uninstalling it, it should just install like the BM, not all this other hassle stuff going on, i'm no tech, so dont have the patience to learn how to do something that should work right in the first place. i'll leave it for a day or two maybe some one has an idea how to get it to work, but if not i'll dump it, and just play with out it....frustrated, sorry.

Yeah, cause providing a convenient, easy package of images all mods can use, without having to waste horrid amounts of bandwidth for each individual mod, sure is a bad idea... Let's just make every mod contain all of the images, so that our kind, generous web host friends pay $100+ per month for their bandwidth costs, m'kay?

All you do to install the MMP is extract each archive into the SE5\Pictures folder, like the download page says. I can't speak for this "Unnamed AI with FQM v107" mod, but that's all that needs doing to get FQM proper to work.

You don't want to actually extract the MMP files into any specific mod; they are meant to be extracted into the base SE5\Pictures folder, for use by all mods that reference them.

i read the directions, put them in the folder as instructed. Still no go, just wondering why. You'll have excuse my temperment, i have an advanced type of spinal arthritis and its painful, so unfortunately i quick to temper, sometimes, nothin personal.

As far a the silly statement about all the mods the same is.....well rediculas, just saying that some mods seem to unload and work fine off the bat and some dont. It would be nice if they all worked as well as the BM mod, imho. No reason to get hostile,lol. So any constructive help is always welcome. Since i've heard so many good things about the unnamed mod, i was anxious to try it. So if there are any more idea's on how to maybe fix the problem, i'd like to try them. ty for your time

The download page (see link below) states that there are two versions. One with FQM and one without. The one with; as noted, requires the media pack and has links both to information on the media pack and a link to downloading the media pack.

If there are continuing problems getting the version with FQM to work, I recommend trying the version without.

No worries; I probably over-reacted a little. Smiling

After extracting the MMP archives into the SE5\Pictures folder, you should have files like:

SE5\Pictures\Planets\FQM\nebulae_11.bmp

If nebulae_11.bmp is located anywhere else, something is not right. If you don't see the file in that exact location, navigate back to the Pictures folder. Then hit ctrl-f to open the find files dialog, and search for "nebulae_11.bmp". If you find nothing, the MMP isn't installed. If you find it in some weird place, you may have inadvertently created a new folder during the extraction process, or something.

A path like "Planets\Stellar2\FQM" would indicate that you selected the option to "extract archive to Stellar2" instead of "extract archive here." Simply move the folders inside Stellar2 to the proper place (probably up one level), and you should be good.

Hey Isdahl,

Not a problem, I'm not offended, we want to give everyone the best experience possible. Basically following what Fyron said, do the following

Go to this page http://mm.spaceempires.net/download.php

Download each of the three files (component pack, effects pack, stellar pack) and save them into the pictures folder of the space empires game (not the unnamed mod under gametypes). Extract here for each file. This should install the media pack.

Good luck, (hope this helped and what I said was correct, got back from a christmas party and not 100% sober anymore).
