Is it a bug or...?

  • Well, I just wanted to know, in Crossfire it seems like there's a lot of the color pink... trade lanes, gateways, starting the cruise engine, a big deal of weapons etc...
    Now this is a color that really stands out in the game, especially for me because in the game Oblivion, when you don't install a mod properly, items/things are usually pink, so I get a feeling like the mod is incomplete or something...


    So is it a bug, or is that pink supposed to be everywhere?

  • It's not pink! It's magenta... and it's a feature, not a bug :]

  • Aha, magneta then... Well, ok then, I'd be happier if there was less of it, but I'll get used to it I guess...

  • Hey Bundy - welcome


    Sorry I couldnt chat much earlier - you caught me in the midlle of a long transfer process with a clan mate - involving fitting 3 VHF chars.


    Good luck -


    I like pink by the way and like Oblivion even more


    However there seems to be a bug in my game where I cant complete the final mages quest as the King of Worms doesnt fight me after we talk.


    Played Oblivion for ages and that's the first time that happened.

  • Yeah, thanks for the welcome


    Oblivion is great, I installed literally tons of mods after I got bored with the vanilla game (same thing I did with Freelancer and Crossfire), so I always get back to playing it.


    You might try some patches, and definitely mods for Oblivion, there are many great ones, especially on tesnexus.com


    Btw. as for Crossfire I'd like to point out a thing that's even more annoying to me, and that's the fact that some NPC ships (such as rogue ships at the beggining) have the ability to use shield batteries and nanobots. That's probably made so that the battles become harder to beat, but they aren't harder, they just take a lot more time to complete. So it gets kind of frustrating, when it takes 10 minutes for a 2 min battle, and the result will probably be the same. Any other opinions on this?


    EDIT: Looks as if I came here just to whine about crossfire, but that's a wrong impression, the mod is great, these are just some details that I didn't like that much

  • in 1.8 there should be an option to change particle color (i think i read that somewhere...)


    and harder npcs ARE a feature, since most of CF players can kill any npc w/ 2-3 shots ;) and demand even harder npcs. Get a new ship, some new equipment and practice & train & get some skills :)

    Only dead fish swim with the stream.
    Don't discuss with idiots. They only drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience there.


    This is ten percent luck,

    Five percent pleasure,
    Fifty percent pain,
    And a hundred percent reason to remember the name!

    Yeah, will do, because with the starter liberty ships it's way to hard...


    Anyway, I might start playing multiplayer now, because it seems to be more fun, especially with such a helpful community as this one is :D

    THE FASTEST ONE


  • It can drag you to Hyperspace if there are no DK waiting at you at the buttend of a jumphole... It's probably the most maneueverable ship... basically it's like a fly: you can't catch it :D *Exept in rare occasions*
