Re: Elite Plus - Hit Points

Posted on 2019-05-21, 09:58

I hope you still watch this gumpy. As usual confusions prince made some mistakes ;) Formost i mixed up the two adresses, i assumed the lower value is your rank and the higher the hit count but it's vice versa. YOU ARE ALMOST ELITE thats true. I asked like i promised on frontier forums and received …

To your original Q, "it can't be" i mean ermpf i have a vice versa problem i would like to close a called batch with "EXIT /b" and probably a returned errorlevel but this really won't work and it always exits also the process where it was called from so it exits always DOSBox. (btw i even use win10 …

Quite interesting for what you use DOSBox Gene. May i ask that is like i would start an emulated miggy to run Micro EMacs to edit in a complicated way a text. Pardon me, maybe you need not to be observed. Well ok i play MIDI files with an old DOS player even when any windows mediaplayer is much more …

OK i won't have to ask the solution was to find in frontier forums. Elite Plus determines the text for for combat rating using two lists. The first list contains the maximum number of hit points a rating applies to (0, 2, 4, 9, 20, 35, 90, 155, 1000, 60000) and the second list contains the text ( …

I compared Hoopers savegame with yours. Hoopers savegame shows 00 02 which shows clearly that it is to read "common" as longword else it would be 02 00 for 2 points Your Elite rating is based on the number of kills you obtain. The ratings increase quickly at first, then slowly later on. PATIENCE is …

If it wouldn't have been David Braben.... I didn't think you are near Elite, i don't know Elite to well but therefore it's sequel FE2 from in and out. I could already guess thast this counter counts only up to a value and gives then one point to elite, it's pretty like this in FE2. 255 in general …

Re: Lords of the Realm (1994) CD Version

In advance - i'm surprised someone else too plays LotR I can't see any difference from the "94 CD release" to the floppies further it's only the english version, the "few" extra MB's are the PDF's. Did you played it in the past? It's i would say a somewhat boring game typical for a roundbased …

in Windows
Can't tell much about TWPGA2001 but i playe(d) TWPGA2000, probably it's a similar problem or a similar trick will help. i use a different WS3HELP.DLL (use the one you find in your system32 directory) as provided with the game and place this in the games folder. Also i use the latest release of DX7a. …

i would try DXWnd, you can limit the framerate in a very nice way without to eat up your machines power. limit ram, cheat direct-x version, apply fixes for special dx versions, hook open gl, hook glide, trick shaders........................... Probably it already has a fix in it's database for this …

this should be safe, it contains what i use for Frontier, it will contain some game data and a hacked executable but it's in no way to use without the original or shareware release of Frontier. Contents: MODS - JSGME MODS enabler - FE2 patch (removes password protection, adds bugfixes) - Wormhole …
