Well my issue is everything costs 0, not a problem in itself except I can't buy missles or the game crashes.
The starmap kinda "shudders", but still can be lived with.
Unfortunately some stars are bugged so I can't travel to them, which stops the gameplay because the one I need is to advance the game.

Hope it gets fixed Sad


yep same here ! and when i enter navigation chart every system i jumping/shaking like crazy lol ! :/

Reloaded should do the same or a Noob will do it , pack it in a nice Iso and say He is 1337 Rolling Eyes or wait i smell Deviance strike with a proper (german version + eng mp3+ subs ) Laughing

To be honest I could care less how it's fixed, I just want it fixed

Because I played the demo and the game aint worth the cost, especially not in denmark where you can add a 25% tax to the game cost.

It's a toy to use some time on, but it's not X3

U need the file strings from the english one and put the content into ds_3dadd.cpr from the german one apply the crack ( 3 files ) from silentgate and change the sound, video and voice from english to german then play Smile No issues will appear.

Yes, the taxes in the nordic regions especially Sweden there I live, has horrible taxes. :/

But the standard in Sweden is very high and good, so it's worth it. It's very hard for companies here in Sweden, so many companies have moved to other countries like Hungary, Poland and Romania.

Crack issues list:
Starmap jumps around, worse every time you look at it (confirmed on official forums this happens when you remove DVD during play)
Artifact upgrade SLOWS down your ship (confirmed on official forums this happens when you remove DVD during play)
All equipment costs 0 cr (if I wanted a trainer I'd get one)
Cannot jump out of first cluster (all the other issues could be worked around kinda, but not this one, its a showstopper).

If you use DT 3.47 you can use virtual cd hide. Some people have tried that and it seems to work. The easiest way to tell if it works is to check the equipment cost after you do it. Unfortunatly this method doesn't seem to work with DT 4.03


Reloaded needs to admit they screwed the pooch, do a grp req. nuke and release a working crackfix or a proper. Apparently they only handled the initial cd check and didn't bother to play the game to find out the game checks cd throughout gameplay, and degrades gameplay if it doesn't find it.

Hint: Test your crap before release. Try actually playing game FIVE MINUTES!

wow this game is sheer crap. The gamepad support is less than satisfactory.

Then again, i'm coming from X3 which sets a pretty high bar for space games :3

Im usually a big fan of reloaded, but this once im in agreement, it's unlike them to fuck up this badly.

And to the ones out there who will begin to bitch, whine and moan as earlier in the thread it's quite simple, if you expect recognition and to have "good name" you should also expect that people will complain if you don't live up to it.

I could understand if this error came after hours of play, but you will notice the bugs right away, just try buying a missle.
AND the showstopper comes after less than 30 minutes unfocused play.

This should be nuked, since it's a non-working crack.

Dunno about the missile bug, but using DT3.47+virtual cd hide is confirmed to fix several other issues (jittery starmap, 0 equipment cost, etc).

PostPosted: Thu, 17th Aug 2006 22:21    Post subject: new patch..
new patch is out today "the DarkStar One 1.2 beta-Patch is now available for download. This patch not only fixes the latest issues reported from the international community, including the framerate problem that prevented the disc checking routine from working smoothly together with the game, but also enables the new modding features for the interested modding community. "

well maybe this will fix all problems i played it mounted regulary with no problems maybe a bit of a stutter of sound but that happens very rarely
so hope reloaded gets a new crack out very fast for this patch to work
i tired this patch and then reloaded crack and the game wouldnt even load:(

a) WTF why would anyone want this patch? The retail game had an issue where it slowed down to 10 FPS because it CONSTANTLY checked your dvd drive while playing. There's no DVD here, so this doesn't apply. We need a WORKING crack, not a new version of a crack for a pointless patch (unless you own retail).

b) pretty much all cracks only work on the version of the game they are designed for. So of course trying the crack with the 1.2 patch is not going to work.

Laughing happy with my german release no bugs in it , looks like TAGES + SDK fucked something up in this game , becoz everyone bitch about it that they bought the US version that has bugs in it Rolling Eyes and now a patch to fix the protection problems Laughing LOL hahahahhaah

remebers me the patches from Rise & Fall from Midway - they released like 4 or 5 without any disciption what is does - but if you look closer on them they only upgrade Starforce and fix the protection bugs and compability problems that SF drivers made Rolling Eyes

WELCOME to tHE FUTURE when patches don`t fix games anymore but the protection that protects the game Laughing

Anyone feel like whipping up a quick guide on converting german to english?

I read the previous posts about this in this thread, and some detail seems to be lacking, or perhaps I'm just too n00b.

so what are all the files u need to convert.


U need the file strings from the english one and put the content into ds_3dadd.cpr from the german one apply the crack ( 3 files ) from silentgate and change the sound, video and voice from english to german then play Smile No issues will appear.


there is no file strings there a folder called strings with another file in it. am i supposed to open that file and take out whats in it and paste it in that ds_3dadd.cpr file and delete whats in the ds_3dadd.cpr file? i get nothing but an error when starting the game after moving whats in the file thats in the strings folder into the ds_3dadd.cpr file.

That's exactly the point I was making earlier in my post. No, they ain't providing a service but it's about respect. People are gonna waste nearly 4 gigs for this shit and it's a non-working release, compounded by the fact that release sites like Nforce are showing it as a valid release when it's totally fucked.

Like you said, if this was something more subtle or only noticeable after a few hours of play I could understand, but fuck! All the equipment costs nothing, you buy a missle and it crashes.

Ah, well. I'm sure there will be a proper eventually, a few days maybe. Nobody seems to be in a hurry to do anything about this one. TAGES is either too hard or they just can't be bothered. Sad

Look in the english installed version, you'll see the folder string with ENG\global.res in it. Now open 3s_3dadd.cpr in the german installed version with winrar. Now you'll see strings\origal\global.res again. Replace the german file global.res in 3s_3dapp.cpr with the english one. Zip the file again and rename it to .cpr again. Remember u'll play the game from the german installed version. Now replace the new .cpr with the old german one. Apply the german crack and change the video, sound, music and subs from german to english. If u do exactly like this it'll work Smile
