Subset Games Forum

Hey polobow. Unfortunately I have no way to determine the reason for the crash by examining the savegame. At lest none that I know of. FTL can give some readouts about the crash, but as far as I can see there is no way to really connect that to issues within events or the mod overall. Thanks for your initiative though.

I'm pretty much new to FTL and I have been trying to jump into CE after some time with the vanilla game. However I cant for the life of me get the mod to run without crashing either in the hanger or moments into a new sector. This seems to be the only mod I have issues with that I grabbed from the master list. Maybe I'm missing something needed, what files would I need just to get the CE to run? I was assuming the resource pack and Base mod would do it, but no luck.

Did you look at the mod order list? the order of your mods are important I do believe.

Yes. I had the Resource pack load first, then the base mod just trying to run CE only. Any other mods I tried to load I stuck close to the suggested load order.

Can't reproduce the problem. It might be related to your pc or a bad download. You can always try re-downloading the mod files and re-installing ftl, or you could look into other stuff the troubleshooting section in the first post suggests.

A great mod... and great music! Can you please put a soundtrack for download? Also, are the lyrics in the Federational Anthem?

Got some problems while installing CE main mod.
Mod Manager says something like...
THIS!

Patching failed: java.io.IOException: Could not guess encoding for "data.dat:data/dlcBlueprints.xml".
Failed to decode as UTF-8: java.nio.charset.MalformedInputException: Input length = 1
Failed to decode as windows-1252: java.nio.charset.UnmappableCharacterException: Input length = 1

Other mods (resource pack and other such stuff) are OK.

This might be a silly question, but: Do you have Advanced Edition installed? That is an official update for FTL that came out some time ago and it is required for CE to work. I'm asking because I never saw that error before, but the file that the mod manger mentions is specific to AE, so not having AE installed seems to be the most likely cause of the problem.

The SMM description of the additional music addon contains links and names to all the tracks.

Mwoah. AE is installed. I'll try fully reinstalling my game and redownload my mod manager. Maybe dat will help.

UPD:
It worked. Looks like, I've got some wrong game files selected, cuz I have multiple FTLs installed. Sorry for being so stupid. :\

For some reason, the Hull Repair Kit doesn't seem to remove any scrap from my bank, even though the event text says it takes scrap to fix the hull

I also noticed it doesn't delay the fleet at all to fix the hull, even though it says it will, which makes it kind of OP... I forgot to take a picture of that though.
