[MOD] Please dock as soon as you get green position lights

Post by Murrky »

Hello pilots!
Here is just a small mod to remind you of two great titles by Egosoft, X-Beyond the frontier and X-Tension. It modifies docking procedure chatter. Made for people who miss golden era of XBTF and XT and for everyone who loves profitssss.

Updated 1.1
Modified the way the file "Please dock..." is played. Now it is played from Yisha's position, so the game sound engine handles panning and fadeout.

Updated 1.2 of V2
Now greetings on stations depend on station's race.
They are Argon for Argon, Split for Split and teladi for anything else (if one). Thus, no more Telady conspiracy theory.
If you like Teladi more than Argon, use older V2.

Updated 1.3 of V2.
Terrans are no more argon: default X:R greetings for Canterans.

TODO: Optional "Remove boarding animation" for those who're annoyed of it (not unboarding, since it is the candy of the mod).


There are two files, you need only one of them.

1. AIS_XBTF_V1 which changes radio chatter to:
Yisha: "Request permission to dock"
Station: "Positive. Please dock as soon as you get green position lights" (from XBTF).

2. AIS_XBTF_V2 which does the same and adds greetings when you exit Skunk's cockpit. Those greetings are from X-Tension Teladi (older versions) stations (they assume all stations are owned by Telady, you know, conspiracy theory :) ) In 1.2 stations greetings are argon and split depending on station faction main race.

Both files are savegame safe, you can remove them anytime.

Installation
Unzip files to the MAIN X-Rebirth folder (there is new folder added to the main folder for Yisha's voice new option)

Edit: Argon greetings available as an option.

Haaaaa, awesome. :D I always loved that. Too bad we can't get the position lights themselves back, I always thought they were rad.

I've found a way to determine a station race by
<set_value name="$stationrace" exact="event.param.faction.primaryrace" />, so I will try to update the mod. I just cannot test it with a split stations because I haven't found a way to Omicron Lirae yet.

For dead patriarch I suggest that there was a new patriarch 50 years ago with the same name :)

Could you add the X3 "Please dock as soon as you get green position lights" human (non teladi) femal voice? I really hoped your "argon" version would do that, but it is just a teladi voice for argon stations. :roll:

It is not a teladi voice, actually. It is a computer voice which was the same for every station in XBTF. Words were different.

As for female in X3... Hmmm... I do not remember there were such phrases spoken by a woman. Wasn't it male (not computer)? I'll try to check. The only female voice I remember was station announcer voice (Not sure if I am ready for an idea to add the same announcements to X:R).
