My question right now is whether or not you have gotten around to editing CE's events to use AE's new content (and making CE's content available in AE's events) as rewards, blue options (I'm sure mind control would have many), etc. Procedurally generated weapons seem pretty cool! I can just imagine now, a beam that leaves behind fire and breaches, and stuns the crew. Hehe. We'll see.

Also, are the ship unlock events still present in the endless space addon? Also the crystal sector warp device thing you only usually find in the rock homeworlds.

A friend of mine is getting the same problem.

The Distraction Buoy's augment seems pretty worthless with the amount of ways CE allows you to delay the fleet anyway...

Can't wait to try out Infinite Loot!!!!!!!!!!!!!

An idea about the On-Board Clone Lab. It may be sort of obsolete because of the Clone Bay, but perhaps it could be reworked. Crew can have skills now when they are recruited so what if we could use an advanced form of clone bay to create "genetically engineered super crew (or mutants if you prefer...) you could create a copy of one of your own crew with skills engineered to your liking and get another crew in the process or maybe just replace them? If that's possible. This should cost scrap or take time or some other trade off. I think this sort of thing would be cool for a clone ship and fit into the sci-fi mosh pit of FTL. Also, perhaps since you said the clone bay created walking controversies... This could have a chance to make our crew mad and have them leave. My idea is that that the clone bay is meant not to be used to create copies of existing organisms. Or if you want to get really evil, you could kill your normal crew in the process of the cloning. And then of course it would have to be reworked to create all varieties of crew.

What do you think? It would basically be a way to create your ideal crew and could be used to negate the skill loss of the regular clone bay. Think about a Brood ship with The "Mutant" Clone Bay, the Backup DNA stores (Which I think should be renamed to Cryogenic DNA Backup), and a high level clone bay and teleporter!!!

EDIT: The type of clone bay Augment I just mentioned could also have some interesting flavor text with it regarding "splicing" of DNA. Like you give your crew the strength and inherent fighting skill of some prestigious Mantis Warriors. The Engineering mastery of the Engi. The ingenuity of a humanoid Captain. The deep understanding of Shield technology of an ancient Zoltan. And other similar things...

Hey, I've tried putting the new patch of CE and all add ons into the slipstream manager and patching them to play, it but doesn't seem to work. Every time I launch the game is shows this error message, then crashes.


The order I patched them in is what was recommended, Planets and Backgrounds > Captains Edition > CE BPaB Compatability > CE Additional Music > CE Infinite Space. I also tried just patching this: (Reset to Vanilla) then adding just Captains Edition and same thing, it seems the CE itself doesn't work for me.

Any idea why this isn't working and just showing an error?

Just to clarify, these are the files I'm using:
Better Planets and Backgrounds_v1.3.1
FTL Captains Edition 1.201
CE BPaB Compatibility Patch 1.0
CE Aditional Music Addon 1.2
CE Infinite Addon 1.201

CE Endless Loot Addon 0.9 (beta) (Just downloaded it a few minutes ago, haven't added it yet)

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Thanks allan, so I deleted my backups but it made no difference. Am I meant to reinstall AE since I've deleted the backups?

Yes. Delete the backups, reinstall AE, and then that problem should be done.

Perfect! Thank you so much.

I am getting the exact same problem as Corystarkiller. My mod manager just stops when it gets to endless loot.I even left it running overnight and it made no progress. It is exactly the same too, I even compared mine with the image they posted. So yeah it's not an isolated incident but it is to be expected with a beta. Hope you can fix it.
