[MOD] N.M.C.E v1.05b for X3TC v3.1 (update: 24.08.2011)

Post by PSCO1 » Tue, 21. Sep 10, 17:02

The idea of this mod is to clearly separate the military jobs, civilians and traders

To oversimplify, military crew drive tanks, civilians drive cars and not the reverse.. its that reason i modify the TShips and Jobs with my way

But it's also a rebalance ships stats with the reactivation of all Turretdummies on each ships of the vanilla game.. aslo all everything I can find such bugs in passing ...

But also the background of all sectors is re-done with a very close attention to Terrans sectors (calculation of light intensity between sun and planets of sectors) with a light specular effect on stations

Pluto sector is dark (RGB close to 0,0,0) while Mercury is 255,255,255

Then all my cockpits are included and also a final adjustment to the position of all flight deck of all vessels of the vanilla game

And specials jobs for a few old X2 ships .. (but all X2 ships are not availables in this mod, only ~30%)

X2 ships are cheap, poorly equipped because they are for civilians (you start the campaign with a Argon_M5_X2_Discoverer)

wow ... you try to merge ? :lol:

Bad idea if you try to use SRM with NMCE

NMCE use his own weapons with a very complex TShips file, you must choice between those both mods !

But i would know exactly why you want to use SRM and why you are interresting in NMCE mod ?

Actually i play with 2 scripts ("Improved Races" and "NPC Bailing Add-on")
And for me playing with 2 or more mods isnt recommended :roll:
new khaak ship
Where ? :lol:

Just extract all files in the right folders .. :wink:

"director" folder:
-3.02 Plot Missions.xml
-EnablePlots_CustomStart.xml

"maps" folder:
-NMCE.xml

"mods" folder:
-PSCO1_NMCE_v103.cat
-PSCO1_NMCE_v103.dat

"scripts" folder:
-setup.NMCE.text.xml

"t" folder:
-8200-L044.xml

After, launch X3TC start window, select NMCE mod, and click "play"
once in game select "new game", "custom game", and "NMCE"

That's all :)
