In my German Steam client there is no such check box. I can find the Bonus pack separately but I am not asked for the DLC when installing X3AP. Also the included 'software' like the dock manager is not contained in my vanilla steam download. So, verified that the Bonus pack is not installed. Thanks for checking.

Wow, very nice, listening to Kingdom End song included in that article while reading it I suddenly have a strong urge to play X3 again.... Appreciate that they post the GOG link to the game too.

Thank you
Hey Litcube
I just wanted to say you my biggest thanks for making such a great mod. I am at my second playthrough now and I am really enjoying it! If you have patreon or paypal I would like to donate you some coins for your great work.
Have a nice year

Is anyone else having issues docking with 'Free Argon Trading Station'?
All of my ST's are currently trying to purchase crystals from them. But neither I nor my AI can dock with them. Is there a certain rep I need or?
I'm currently 6 with Argon.
Edit. It actually looks like no NPC can dock with them? Think it's broken.
This is my second clean install, First time around had issue with crashing (probably due to bonus pack). Now this? 0/10 Literally unplayable?

Hey all! So, I'm a bit late to the game here, but I picked up the X3 TC/AP deal on Steam a couple weeks ago, along with the 2 DLCs, and must say the game is just what I was looking for!
After playing it for several hours, I found dizzy's 3 year old live stream series on youtube and decided to give modding a shot.
And yep...I'm not having full success at modding.
I haven't had time yet to read thru all 900 pages of this thread, but I'm working on it. In the meantime, how about a simple question:
Is the Steam version of TC and AP, with the "war pack" DLC installed, and several saved games, considered a "clean install"?
If not, then I suppose that's my issue. If so, then I'll ask the next question(s).
Thanks!
EDIT:
How 'bout that; found my answer 2 pages back. Nice! Re-installing from Steam now, minus the DLC.

Bugged or just not not working?
4th (unsuccessful) attempt -
Clean install (yes, even deleted the Egosoft folder from the mydocs of C: drive (installation of games is always on a separate HDD and not my SSD C: drive (for obvious life wear). Therefore, no saves or profiles can be inadvertently used.
Initial launcher indicates AP v3.0, 2013 (my usual version - gave up with 'SB' plot because the 2x 25 caps wouldn't spawn after three days waiting so, I assume that's broken).
Now then -
Into 'root' (not 'addon') of new/clean X3AP, I installed in this order -
1; LU v1.7.1
2; LU v1.7.2 patch
3; LU Soundtrack v1.2.1 (no music ever plays even when entering a new sector despite volume set to max - not even the original AP music)
4; LU GUI v1.2.7 (I've opted for Azure, Topaz but, not noticed a difference unless that's further into the game where/whatever it's supposed to be/do/show...?)
Previous three attempts = 'Humble Merchant' start (though I'd expected some others in stead of the 'Vanilla' options but, nothing different until the loading page which shows 'Litcube' in upper left of loading page. Unless alternatives to those starts are only if installing the 'Diverse Starts' script?
Ignoring the Flight School prompt, I swap ships and build up my discovered map whilst the Mercury ferries e-cells until I can invest in trade mkII (wrongly thinking I'd have an OK Trader or at least SOME form of automated trade option). I buy Trade MkII for my Merc but alas, no - Command... Trade... and then (wait for it) - [Read text blah blah] which if clicked on, Betty says "Command accepted" but nothing happens. In additional ship commands, I click on these to discover one is ship rename & colour and other additional command is a flag for tug toggle (or so the resulting text at the top besides the ship name suggests).
For the first attempt, I'd installed the Joubarbian Toolkit, Stock exchange v4, Satellite monitoring, detector v1.18 for major mod (never found any abandoned ships to see if that worked or not), turret on/off.
Second and third attempts saw repeats of the above [readtext] errors so, I added fewer 'enhancements' until with this fourth, NO enhancements (not even the toolkit).
I was contemplating installing the 'Mayhem' variant if this refuses to work properly. From what I've read, it's a Commonwealth war without the OCV or Phanom entities. Thought I'd try resolving this problem first in case it's going to persist.
Any thought folks? If I can't trade, there's no point in playing it. Unfortunately (for X3), Total War Rome II and Sims Medaeval are looking very tempting right now...
