Hello, not entirely sure if this is where to post this. Both Korolov shipping and the Black Market factions hate me, I think because I can get sloppy with friendly fire. There isn't any normal way to get back into the escort missions or back into the black market's good graces, other than by starting a new game, is there?

Next, I have the Cheat codes mod, but it doesn't seem to be fully working right. The code (bmcrime) gives me a "nil" result, and (cleanslate), (cleanslate bm), (bmcrime "nil" 0) and (bmcrime nil 0) don't stop them from hating me. I've tested a bit and blew up a commonwealth station, and (cwcrime) gives me a "nil" afterward as well, though docking will get me arrested. (cleanslate) does make those commonwealth crimes go away, while not affecting the black market. Not sure if this might affect it, but I was shipping a crate on a black market mission when they started hating me. But the mission is gone from my mission screen, and jettisoning the crate and redoing (cleanslate) doesn't stop them hating on me.

Help please? Thanks, and feel free to move this post if you think this is the wrong place for it.

[Edit: at one point in my experimentation I somehow got someone at a Tempus Labs to say he'd call off the bounty hunters, but then I went to a black market station and they executed my anyway, and I haven't been able to get anything similar to happen from my backup save. Are bounty hunters a separate faction? Any way to get them to leave me alone?]

Hi, I moved the topic here in Beginner's luck, as it seems that you just need some help ingame and not tech support :)

if bmcrime and cwcrime returns Nil, I suspect that the mod thinks that you don't have a crime record with them. (not 100% sure, as I used cheat commands mod long time ago). Code might be changed and doesn't work.

Did you try a second Korolov station ? Maybe it's just that one that is mad at you.

For Black Market, in order to not get executed and recover your BM status, you need money, lots of it.
Never tried it, but you might try to buy an insurance, dock with BM, die and then get your status cleared so you can dock with them again. I'm pretty sure that an insurance is cheaper than paying the BM tax.

Using insurance does not clear criminal records. If you die on dock, respawn, then dock again, you die again if station is non-Commonwealth. Commonwealth repeats the trial.

Yeah, I'm not sure why the game or mod is confused about my crime status. As for Korolov stations, the problem is that you mess up one mission out of ten and you get a bad record and they say nobody will hire you.

Thanks for letting me know about bribing my way in the clear. (bmcrime) may not be working right, but (mny) is, so I'm in the clear now.

Cheat codes is mod for Transcendence 1.08b, last updated on 30 april 2012. In other words, it is most likely no longer compatible with the current version of the game.

If you really, really, really, want to stop the black market from hating you, start the game in /debug mode, open the debug console (F9) and enter:

Code: Select all

(objSetData gPlayerShip "blackMarketCrimeCost" Nil)

Cheers,

Use in the console
(objSetData gPlayerShip "blackMarketCrimeCost" 0)
(objSetData gPlayerShip "commonwealthCrimeCost" 0) (objSetData gPlayerShip "commonwealthCrimeSeverity" 0)
