So whenever I play the vanilla "campaign" with Blackrock Driveyards, even though the ships will show up in menu displays and are available for simulations, none of the actual Blackrock content is anywhere to be found ingame. I have to play Uomoz's Sector Mod to play with those slick ships, which has led me to another problem where my saves won't load. This is specifically what happens from starsector.log:

code:

8184705 [Thread-5] INFO  com.fs.starfarer.campaign.save.CampaignGameManager  - Loading C:\Program Files (x86)\Fractal Softworks\Starsector\starsector-core\..\saves\save_HoYinsen_1714720916499419080...
8206407 [Thread-5] INFO  com.fs.starfarer.campaign.save.CampaignGameManager  - Error loading
8206407 [Thread-5] ERROR com.fs.starfarer.campaign.save.CampaignGameManager  - Java heap space
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space

Anyone know how to fix either of these?

For whatever reason, none of the workarounds I can find for increasing the memory allocation to this game are working :argh:

Did you replace the 32 bit version of the java runtime that starsector uses?

I un-installed JRE7 and then re-installed it in a different directory, then changed the target directory in the batch file. Working fine now :toot:

You can get Blackrock 0.7.0 here. As always, it needs LazyLib and ShaderLib.

Oh god, I can't play Starsector because JRE7 is broken. I can't uninstall it, but it won't show up in any of my folders.

Luckily, apparently this is a common problem with Windows 8, and their tech support site had a program just to sniff it out and then uninstall it for realsies (I think part of it might have been a registry error, but my software wasn't picking it up). I re-installed JRE 7 and now the game is running like a champ :toot:

Thats pretty much my next goalpost, the system will be a three way war with TT, heg and BRDY probably, maybe even a small pirate holdout somewhere for extra clusterfuck

Large pirate holdout. I want to watch the sector BURN :colbert:

I'm pretty sure there was an older mod that had a Wave Motion Gun in it, which does exactly that. So probably not very?

is there a good Yamato mod out there!?
