Can you give a more detailed description of your problem?

Oh, and in the future, this type of thread should go in the Help/Tech Support Forum. Not modding & editing. It's ok though, it's your first post

sorry about that but yeah its my first post

well when im in the BC files, it says that the BC mod has failed so i can't get into certain files etc.

and when im in the game and in quick battle. if i chose somethink like the intrepid class as one of the ships, then the game would crash. with all of the new ships it doesn't say anything when it shows a description of the ship and it's armament.

i just have no idea on how to get it working

First of all very few modded ships have descriptions so I dnt think thats anything to worry about.In the readme have a look at the requirements and make sure you have them all if you dnt they'll likely be available at www.bcfiles.com

that sounds like a hardpoint file prob... thats usually the thing that causes these probs... i got that soooo many times... ok so wot ur gona do is chek that all ur hardpoint files are there (scrips/ships/hardpoints) usually a hardpoint file comes wit the ship... if the hardpoint for a certain ship isnt there, look 4 it in the folder that the ship came in (or u can download a new 1)... if the hardpoint is there, open bcmp (bc mod packager) and go to the checker, if it says that all files r found, there shouldnt b a prob. i dont no wot else it could b... i have had that prob heaps of times, and its always been a prob with the hardpoint...

oh, actually, if the game starts, then u go to fire a torp or a disruptor and then the game freezes, thats a missing projectile file. if thats the case, tell me and ill let u no how to fix it in next time lol, its 12.30am in sydney, and im really tired lol...

good luck and i hope it works out 4 u! i h8 it wen my game stuffs up!

thank you for that info i think thats the problem. most of the files in there are opened with acrobat reader and when i go to open them it says that it can't be opened by acrobat reader cuz it may be corrupted etc
and when i use note pad to open it it's just aload of symbols

I think your best bet at this stage is to uninstall bc,delete everything in the bc folder,install it again and then beginning with bc patch 1.0 start installing all your mods again.It'll take time but it sounds like it may be easier than messing around with hardpoint files.Wait for a while and c if anyone else knows what the problem is first though.
