Only scripts that do not modify existing files can be added.
What about custom ships?

These are officially unsupported.
It is technically possible to merge them into the "tships" file used by the mod, but you are on your own to do this.
Right on commander !

no clue. ive seen some custom ship files that want you to fool around with tships and i've used xsp files with the modmanager with out touching tships so i thought i would get clarification.

Sorry... old archive which has no cockpits. It seems Phlt forgot to update the links.
(never trust a Teladi to do a decent job :P )

Download "all inclusive" archive here

Do not forget to select the cockpit version in the game launcher.

it may sem like an odd question but, why are so few of the new ships compatible with PALC and PBC? i know there hard to get in vanilla but they are very effective if you can get them.

I am not sure how to answer that.
We have our own ideas about weapons - you should find new ones after the XG plot - and we do not favour beams.
They are very difficult to balance properly in my experience.

really? i never found them good for anything but anti-missile/M5,4 defense. the dps was too low for m3 and up, but they are the best, even over dedicated flack guns, for missiles and light fighters. i alwase thought they were fairly well balanced in groups of 2-4

I disagree. 4 PALC will make short work of regular M6s at an extreme range.

true, but you only have maybe 5 degrees that you can hit with 4 palc on the tiger and panther and i've never gotten a m6 faster than a vidar to stick around in that zone long enuf to die, and even then PALCs are very easy to clip friendlies with due to fighters flying threw the afterglow...what ever that is.

I understand there are new weapons in NHTC. I cannot figure out how to get them.

Any help?
