Vasari weapon Jammer

Looks as if it works, but any time I mouse over the enemy ship affected by the jammer, the game produces an error like the planet allegiance string error.

Can you copy/paste the exact error from the popup?

Also, did you update to beta 4 from beta 3, or completely reinstall?

Heck, the Vasari Weapons Jammer -- and associated tech upgrade -- could use a little more description, if only because I don't have a clue how the tech lets it target more ships. Does it mean more ships concurrently? Shorter recharge time?

I updated from beta 3. Should I completely re-install?

"Particle Simulation Definition not found: SupportBuff_WeaponJam"


It also does a similar error when I mouse over the target of the Vulkoras' Disentigration ability.

Did you apply the hotfix? That's one of the things specifically fixed in it. But yeah, safer to re-install and then hotfix.

is the hotfix available on stardock? also, when I uninstall everything, do i just click on the game again on stardock and it will do everything for me again like it did before?

I shouldn't have to read the game's data files! It should be in the tool tip! (Please note that the tool tip doesn't mention anything about how to use the power -- click on it and there is now way to select the target -- either it does it automatically, or to the entire grav well, or I don't know what. Tool tips are useless, so fix that!

It's always best to reinstall clean for each new beta phase due to the magnitude of the changes. Hotfixes are usually ok to update directly. If you uninstall then reinstall now, you'll get the very latest version (including the hotfix).

If you're still having this problem after a clean reinstall post back and I'll round it up.
