[FAKE PATCH] 500km Comm Range Mod

FYI payment of missions is not received if you are out of "normal" comm range.

At least that is what I remember from checking out a bug that I didn't get paid for scanning asteroids; it was a long time ago - prob v1.5 of the game or some such.

Cheers!

Can't say I've ever had any problem like that... and I've been using this for *ages*, so not sure if that was just a specific bug to your game or whatnot. There shouldn't be any problem with payment...

Updated to work with 2.7 now. Check OP for download link.

(Globals was changed in 2.6... forgot to update this till now

)

Somehow I have not noticed problems with patch 2.6 and 2.7.
A new version of the mod, not working, lack of communication (c).

There should have been problems as patch 2.6 added in several more global variables at the end of the file... so while you *could* have used the old one, certain variables which were added and I'd assume used somewhere were no longer in existence.

Reason why there would have been problems is that I realized I changed the original Globals and readded it to the archive, rather than changing the newer one... fixed shortly, once Filefront uploads the new version which uses the correct version of Globals file.

Thanks for spotting that.

Any chance of getting it posted up somewhere else (Rapidshare, MediaFire, 4Shared, etcetera) in the meantime?

Thank you. I've been going through withdrawals without it.

This really is one of my "must have" mods for X3.

Cool I need this in my game thanks.

Due to 2.7 causing so many issues with other mods I have rolled back to 2.6.

Could you put up a link to the old version that works with 2.6.

Thanks

Globals.txt wasn't changed in 2.7, it was changed in 2.6. So this should still work perfectly fine, as it's based of the 2.6 Globals.

Is there anyway to make this mod not cause the Modified tag?

This mod is great!

Now i can finally check what missions are available without flying around the sector. I hate how the stations only display one mission symbol

Not that I'm aware of... pretty sure the only kind of mods that don't cause a modified tag are usually graphical changes. Because this changes one of the game files it's guaranteed to give a modified tag.

This doesn't appear to work in 2.7.1
