I will include expansev2.pk3 in patch 1.2 for people who may have downloaded the original release and possibly don't have the file. Thank you for bringing that to my attention.

The Beyond Infinity Expanse skin set was most definitely included with version 1.0 and beyond, so you shouldn't have a problem with missing models unless Klaw's since updated Expanse_malesv1.pk3 to a new iteration.

As for the website, these problems are unavoidable. Our host is dealing with an immense distributed denial of service attack, so outages are expected for the duration.

Afaik the stargate uniforms are in the old model pack which was included in its entirety in rpgxue

Thanks Serris, partially as a heads up incase it had been missed, as for the models the stargate model pack is definitely not included, I have tried a large quantity of the models and could not use it on any of them.

Since downloading this file I have had to source and install a lot of files that are part of SRP's from model's such as the Stargate one (which doesn't seem to be available on any model so I have to source it now) to the expansev2.pk3 which is part of BI and was stopping me from joining the session.. it was easier to use rpg-x when I knew I had to manually source and download files rather than now, where I assume something like that would be there and it isn't. I understand not all files will be there but SRP one's I was led to believe should all be in UE. So all I am asking is either someone puts together a patch with all the srp dedicated files or allows me to do it.

As for the Website issue I only bring it up because Veritas said yesterday in the Shoutbox it should be fine now, it isn't I have had issues twice today where the site would not load, but other sites loaded just fine. (It literally did it whilst I initially tried to post this..)

Hey sorry Andromeda, it's my Grans birthday tomorrow and I said I would take her out for a meal tomorrow night after I finish college so it is rather unlikely I will make it, if I can I will but don't expect me.

But why would there be no error though?

On occasion a map load does not constitute an error as far as rpg-x is concerned I previously discovered this when I could not join one of the servers.

Here is my backup

Could the version of Ariana your using be incorrect?

Also did you try to join both of the servers? (this may allow us to know if it is base files that have the issue or simply addon's causing compatibility issues)

Veritas this is a problem members were having last week when trying to get on the spicy server as well, also Martin had the same issues today when he was trying to connect during AF, I had the issue and am not 100% sure how I solved it.. but it seems to be on the user end.

If only I thought of that 16 months ago

This is tomorrow!

Oh... I don't think I asked anything about times..

Will there be cake?

the hard drive on my desktop is showing signs of failure and I'm looking to replace it with one or two SSDs. My motherboard has a total of four SATA-II connectors and I'm not totally against getting four drives. I know SATa-II doesn't support the high bitrates that SATA-III does, but I've read that there's little difference except during large bursts of activity or file transfers. (even then, the speed would exceed that of my current hard disc) Does anyone have any recommendations for high capacity, reliable SSDs?

1TB Samsung 840 EVO SSD, SATA 6Gb/S (upto540MB/sR | 520MB/sW)
480GB Kingston V300 SSD SATA 6Gb/S (450MB/R | 450MB/W)
Or there are the Seagate Hybrid Drives, I have not personally used them but they may be worth a look, they go up to 4TB

Also another Kingston worth a look is this one http://www.kingston.com/en/ssd/hyperx
It is Kingstons top of the range gaming standard SSD.

With this it primarily depends whether you want to go full SSD or not, one thing to consider maybe 1 or 2 SDD's + 2 more HDD's set as either RAID or Mirror Volumes (the latter will allow you to have a back up of your data, I would note, although in theory it should be fine regardless of Memory size, I would limit the volume of your mirror)

Are you looking to buy 8GB or 16GB?

Almost definitely 16GB. I'm planning an overhaul, going to grab a high end FX processor and a 990FX motherboard (Probably a GIGABYTE one) and quite possibly a liquid cooler. The RAM is the main area I'm unsure of.

If I could recommend any that I have had personnel delight with it would be the Kingston Hyper-X Beast 2400's they appear to run very smoothly don't seem to add any residual heat (or the cooling system just doesn't get bothered by it as it runs as quite as a mouse) and it works brilliantly with Nvidea Graphics Cards.

Sorry if I missed this information Radio but does the screen show anything at all?

@Kurt, I can see you are making double, triple, and quadruple posts in this thread. Please remember that the modify button is there should you decide you have more to say before somebody responds to you.

Telex that was already brought up.

Does anyone know about the quality of AMD's R9 Gamer Series RAM (http://www.radeonmemory.com/gamer_series.php)? AMD claims it is optimised for usage with their higher-end CPUs. I'm trying to work out if said optimisations are worth it, or if I should stick to something like Corsair or Kingston. Assuming, for the sake of argument, that I was using a relatively high-end FX-Series CPU (Which currently I'm not, but am aiming to do so soon enough).

Given the fact that it is for use with an FX series CPU it may well be better than the likes of Corsair or Kingston but I don't see it making a massive difference they appear to be similar in alot of ways

Throwing this out there, the power supply is fine. It's shown no damage of damage for the past 7 years, why would it be the broken thing? (Plus, the system turns on, just, doesn't load. Or make the POST beep.)

Does it state whether there is a component fault or not? (possibly the battery being low from lack of use?) what is the Wattage of the PSU? A photo uploaded to the likes of skydrive/dropbox or imgur could really help with this.

A single Yahoo Answers post does not an authoritative argument make.

Try Wikipedia, OpenBookProject, Cardinal Stritch University, University of Arizona, or millions of others.

I will not address the other "points" in your post because I said I would stop arguing, but again, you are absolutely wrong and your certainty in wrongness is something you should think long and hard on.

Edit: Also, you made up your build specs. Here's how I know:

1) The graphics cards you claim to have haven't shipped yet (EVGA product page) and are made by EVGA, not Nvidia themselves
2) The CPU you list is not supported by the motherboard you claim to have.

So not only don't you know what you're talking about, you also lied to us in your build list.

I would check that mate as I know what is in my computer, you may wish to check your sources it has most definitely been shipped as for motherboard incompatibility how do you explain the fact my computer is on then... and have you never heard of de-soldering...

Kurt, he has no way to know that stuff if it won't boot. The motherboard beep codes don't mean the processor itself is dead, necessarily (in fact they probably don't mean that at all since the processor is required to function to produce a beep code). More likely something else has gone bad - RAM, HDD or power.

It doesn't matter, though. A stock system from 2006 much of anything modern on anything approaching acceptable settings - definitely not STO. The motherboard will be an old model that won't support modern CPUs (if, indeed, it supports anything other than what's already in it). It may not even be DDR3 RAM, and may not be expandable. It almost certainly won't have the space and power requirements for a modern GPU; hell, it's probably AGP or some other non-PCI-Express component.

1. upgrade the PSU this is the 3rd time I have mentioned that I asked him about that, 2. If it doesn't boot the BIOS doesn't work which is normally because the Motherboard died either protecting the CPU or as well as the CPU 3. I believe the model of GPU you are referring to above is the Jetstream version which is the most up-to-date model due for release on the 27th of this month ( I know as I was pondering upgrading to them, but the price is an offput for the extra's it delivers) 4. Yes it may not be expandable that is why my first question was what is the motherboards serial number so I could get the exact specs. Before trying to act know-it-all read someone's post and two check your information.

Check out the Packard Bell iMedia range from 2006. Every system looks identical, with similar specs. It is impossible to find which system I have without booting into it. I'll remove stuff one by one and put it back to see what works and what doesn't. (Also, not planning on playing STO on that dinosaur haha, although it probably could run it)

Got a question though, if I replace the motherboard, will the old components work in it? I won't be able to afford everything, so I'll most likely start with PSU, CPU and Motherboard to start with. The system has a Nvidia card in it - which has rarely been used, which sounds insane at first, but its drivers were never installed, so my PC ran off integrated graphics. Oh my.

Possibly providing they were all PCI-E's as the motherboard you had then wouldn't just have had PCI-E port's so double check that.

Why don't you try the fact that I have done 3 days ago.... I believe that the problem is on your side Veritas. But if you would like I could always check with someone who has a Masters in Computer Engineering. Oh guess what, he said almost exactly what is in that Yahoo answer which is with modern Motherboards they have to be forced into thinking the fan is running but with most older models of motherboard they will do that anyway as they always boot from BIOS. Try taking your BIOS chip out and doing a boot I think you will find it does nothing, then try it with no CPU I think it will say it cannot complete boot sequence due to a CPU error.
