[MD] Ranks for Xenon, Kha'ak, Pirates and Yaki [V1.03][09/21/2011]

not sure how difficult this might be (or even if its possible), since I'm not a scripter or modder. but I Love this plugin manager thing (makes life so much easier for the oblivious player like myself), and I was wondering if it would be possible to get this in an .spk format? I really like the sound of this mod and am hoping to use it soon either way.

The plugin manager can handle zip and rar packages for you (if they've been packed correctly and this mod has), just use the 'install archive' option and point it at the zip/rar.

HTH

I have tried to download this mod several times over the last week and a bit and have failed every time. Is this just me, or are the links in the OP dead?

Post by **X2-Illuminatus** » Sun, 24. Jun 12, 17:12

The links work for me.

Nope. Still no luck. I even tried installing IE specifically just to test it wasn't just a problem with Chrome. Nothing at all for either file (I'm really just wanting the Pirates and Yaki one).

Is it bad manners to ask if someone could quietly mirror the file for me to be able to access and send me the link via PM?

Post by **X2-Illuminatus** » Sun, 1. Jul 12, 11:22

I sent you a PM with an alternative download link.

Thankyou very much to those that assisted. I just tested it and had a good smirk at being described as a Pirates' "Buddy".

Thanks to all concerned.

I got the game showing as modified due to cockpit mod, but no luck in showing the rep with yaki and pirates as on the picture.

Im confused, does this work with Gazz's script or do i need to remove it first?

Nicoman35 · Post by **Nicoman35** » Sun, 2. Sep 12, 13:21

I'm not able to see in my cristal ball which of Gazz' scripts you mean. I'm afraid you will have to tell first...

hah, well the one that inspired the making of this one ofcourse:

http://forum.egosoft.com/viewtopic.php?t=218742

so will they work together or do i delete it first and use only one

im new to modding x3 so i thought it would be smart not to asume anything but simply to ask, no need to be sarcastic there friend

General tips:

- When two scripts change the same thing, it is usually best to use only one at a time.

- Most scripts are easily reversible, so it is (usually) easy to just try it.

In this case, you should probably uninstall Gazz's Numeric Race Ranks before installing Ranks for Xenon, Kha'ak, etc.

thank you very much Dr B, much appreciated

Nicoman35 · Post by **Nicoman35** » Mon, 3. Sep 12, 23:11

The mod "Numeric Race Rank Titles" is integrated in the mod "Ranks for Xenon, Kha'ak, Pirates and Yaki". Just checked the t files of both mods. Only one insignificant change between the friendlies ranks. (Ranks of NRRT begins at -4, RfXKPaY at -5)
So if you want to have the foe ranks too, only use Ranks for Xenon, Kha'ak, Pirates and Yaki.

cheers

ok another noob question, i'll try to be precise this time

you say uninstall gazz's script first, but it's a RAR not SPK which means i can't use the Plugin Manager AFAIK

so to uninstall i have to find the files that were inside the NumericRRT RAR and delete them, then copy over the files from RanksfXKPaY RAR and i'm done?

DrBullwinkle · Post by **DrBullwinkle** » Mon, 10. Sep 12, 16:40

"Install Archive" with the Plugin Manager.

Then uninstall.

Is this mod (the yaki & pirate version) available anywhere else? The link seems to be unavailable right now.

Thanks!
