Apologies for the down time.



The X3 Rebalance Mod (XRM) is a total conversion mod of X3 Terran Conflict. It rebalances nearly all aspects of the game including ships, weapons, graphics, sounds and the universe itself, as well as adding a huge amount of new content. It has been designed with performance and playability in mind and has many exclusive features not available in other mods or scripts.

NOTE - XRM REQUIRES A GAME RESTART


THE NEW XRM DISCUSSION FORUM IS OPEN!

---XRM SCREENSHOT GALLERY---



THE XRM IS COMPATIBLE WITH BOTH X3 TERRAN CONFLICT 3.2c AND ALBION PRELUDE 3.1 on Windows, OSX and Linux
Please follow the installation instructions in the post below relevant to the game you wish to run XRM in.



- FEATURES -

UNIVERSE IMPROVEMENTS – The X-Universe has been completely overhauled and many improvements have been made, including a fully functional Terran ecomony.

NEW SECTORS – Over 50 new sectors, all named, board computer voiced, and featuring full descriptions, have been added. They are all of a standard comparable to the original game itself and they fit seamlessly into the expanded universe. Also new links have been made in the universe to help with the flow of AI trading.

SHIP REBALANCING - The XRM rebalances nearly every single ship in the game with a view to making every ship unique and useful. We have tried to ensure there are no "I Win" ships and that all ships within a class are balanced across the races. Speeds of fighters have been increased, corvettes are much faster, more manoeuvrable with extended cargo bays, heavy corvettes have more weapons and turrets, there are new classes of frigates such as Heavy Assault frigates, light frigates and more light carriers, weapon loudouts have been made more racial, and many other aspects have been tweaked to improve balancing consistancy. Established race lore from the X Universe has been fully embraced and applied. All ship stats are taken into account from speed and acceleration to cargo and price.

NEW SHIPS - As an added bonus the XRM also adds many (well over 200!) new ships into the game taken from some of the excellent ship mods available, including Expnobody's Ship Showcase, Cadius' Xtra Mod and Killerog's X2 ships, as well as some XRM exclusive ships. It features PAR ships, which are pre-outfitted ships ready for deployment when you purchase them, new pirate versions of many ships with custom pirate skins, M3 Bombers, M5 Explorers with built in capital class scanners and Explorer software, prototype M6s for each race and much, much more.

RACIALISED WEAPONS – The military of each race has decided to clamp down on letting other races use their technology. All weapon loadouts have been racialised. There are no longer any generic, “one size fits all” weapons and each race gets their own, unique set of weapons.

NEW WEAPONS – No less than ten new weapons have been added, with brand new effects and sounds, including a full array of Xenon weapons and a new lasertower weapon which makes lasertowers something to be feared again. Factories have also been added for the new weapons so you can build your own. In addition all the beam weapons are now for sale in the universe with updated and enhanced effects.

WEAPON REBALANCING – All weapons in the game have been overhauled and rebalanced. Many have new effects with performance in mind, including all the beam weapons which no longer kill frame rates. Ammo based weapons have been converted into standard energy weapons and rebalanced to compensate. In addition the Ion Disruptor and Phased Shockwave Generator have been converted into standard bullet types to remove their frame rate killing effects. All missiles have increased speeds. Refire rates have been greatly increased. Dumbfire missiles have been converted to low turn rate tracking missiles with large blast radii. Damage, blast radii, special abilities, prices and reps have all been rebalanced. All missiles are now for sale in the universe.

CUSTOM JOBS – A custom made jobs file has been built from the ground up, featuring all the XRM added ships, a completely rebuilt and enhanced military jobs system and improvements to civilian jobs.

BUILT IN RACE RESPONSE AND BORDER SKIRMISHES – (Albion Prelude only) XRM makes full use of the Albion Prelude RRF features, tailoring them to seamlessly fit the XRM jobs while fixing all the bugs that exist in the vanilla version. In addition XRM for Albion Prelude features border skirmishes, where races that have a history of "bad relations" will get into fights in border sectors.

REPLACEMENT WAR FOR ALBION PRELUDE – (Albion Prelude only) A replacement for the vanilla AP war has been created. The player can fight on either side and is given objectives to complete in order to "win" the war.

MORE ENEMIES - The XRM makes the X universe a far more dangerous place. The "enemy" races have been revamped and are now far more active in the universe, with new universe “event” jobs which create invasions without the need for complicated, CPU intensive scripts. You will see the Xenon, Kha'ak, Yaki and Pirates invading other race's sectors - including Terran sectors.

MORE PIRATES – The X-Universe pirates have been on a scavenging spree. They are no longer limited to just Argon and Teladi ships. You will see pirate Boron, Split, Paranid and even Terran ships, and all their new ships are sporting custom paintjobs to make them even more fearsome. They now feature distinct and indentifiable racial clans that they tend to group with, and Pirate Core Sectors have been fully reinforced and now have their own micro-economies and shipyards.

RACE MILITARY INTELLIGENCE NETWORK – The player can connect to each race's Military Intelligence Network to get up-to-the-minute reports on invasions, military strikes and pirate activity.

EXCLUSIVE FULL-FEATURED BOUNTY SYSTEM – Bounties will be offered by each of the main races via the Military Intel Network. These can be won by any player-owned ship and its value will be dependent on the actions of the target ship. You can also score bounties for incursions into Pirate, Xenon or Kha'ak space, and from destroying enemy stations.

BUILT-IN WEAPON PRIORITISING – CWP has been fully integrated, ensuring that all spawned ships have a decent loadout of weapons, shields and tunings.

REALLOCATION OF SHIPYARD WARES – All civilian ships and factories have been removed from military shipyards. These are now for sale at Corporation Showrooms across the galaxy. All Shipyards and Showrooms now have an accompanying Equipment Dock or Military Outpost to help with outfitting of new ships.

MERCHANT/BARTERING SYSTEM OVERHAUL – The X3 Bartering system has been given a complete make over. Rather than a couple of merchants selling not much, you will find a large number of merchants selling a vast array of goods, including some rare, hard to get items.

DOCKING ENHANCEMENTS - Alkeena's BSD Mod is fully merged with the XRM providing enhanced external docking for all ships, including M5 docking for M6s, TS and M6 docking for carriers and M8 docking for Destroyers.

ADDON PACKS - The XRM also adds optional cockpit packs, a backgrounds pack, three hull multiplication packs to increase hull sizes to make battles last longer, and a new "Advanced Universe" pack which significantly changes the role of the jumpdrive.

WEAPONS DEALERS – There are several corporate run weapons dealers throughout the galaxy, selling all types of weapons and shields. They keep a large stock so it makes outfitting ships much easier. There is also rumoured to be a black market dealer somewhere in the universe selling to anyone, no matter their rep.

CORPORATION HQs – Several new Corporations have been added, complete with their own systems, HQs and defence forces.

RESEARCH STATIONS – The XRM features Corporate Research Stations which sell many unique and specialist ships unavailable elsewhere. Their locations are random and occasionally they will relocate to another sector.

SHIP SYSTEMS REBALANCE – Certain ship system wares have been rebalanced to make them less accessible. For example, the jumpdrive has been made an XL ware so it can no longer be used with the majority of fighters and its price has been increased to 2 million credits. Several other wares have had price rises and ware changes. Ship scanners have been completely replaced. The built-in scanner now has a similar range to the old Duplex, the Advanced Scanner is the equivalent of the Triplex and there is a new Military Scanner solely for use on capital ships with a huge range. Comms range has been extended to 70km.

GRAPHICAL AND SOUND IMPROVEMENTS – Many effects have been updated and enhanced. All ships, including capital ships, have engine effects, and lens flares have been completely reworked. There are many new sounds and sound priorities have been reworked to reduce drop outs. Many ships have been retextured to add greater variety into the game. All Yaki ships now have a unique livery and many Paranid ships have been retextured to give the Yaki more variety. Ships ported from X2 have had a texture upgrade to bring them up to X3 standards - Including all Kha'ak ships.

OPTIONAL EXTRAS - Many optional "helper" features have been added. Otas Maintenance Pods can be bought to rapidly repair ships at the cost of Quantum Tubes, Jumpdrive Deployment Kits make it much easier to outfit ships with jumpdrives, and Orbital Weapons Platforms and various player Headquarters can be bought. The System Override Software has had more functionality added to it. It can be used to claim any abandoned ship, of any class, via a simple hotkey and it can even be used to take over a currently active ship! In addition, Terran marines can now be purchased and trained at Terran Patrol Bases.

BUG FIXING - Many bugs that exist in X3TC have been fixed in the XRM, including cockpit positions, turret and camera issues, model problems, etc. In addition the AP Race Responce scripts have been completely overhauled and all bugs squashed.

PLOTS - For Terran Conflict all the plots are available. For Albion Prelude, the main Argon plot is disabled as it is not compatible with the XRM replacement "war". However, all other plots are available. Also, the Corporation and Treasure Hunt plots from TC are playable in AP.

Thanks to fallenwizard for providing this patch.






Hull Multiplication Packs
Updated 02.10.13

Hull Multiplying Pack - LOW

Hull Multiplying Pack - MEDIUM

Hull Multiplying Pack - HIGH

These packs multiply the basic hull levels by various amounts. They also increase the difference between the ship classes. So M2s get a bigger increase than M6s etc.

The low pack multiplies fighters by around x1.5 and capitals by around x2.5, the medium pack multiplies M3s by x2.4 and M2s by x5, the high pack multiplies M3s by x3.5 and M2s by 12!

A script is also included which will reload the hulls of every ship currently in existence. This script must be run manually from the script editor.

Thanks to JMan77 for the idea and scripting.

NOTE - It is essential to update your hull packs with each XRM release.







Cockpit Packs

XRM No War Pack v1.00


This pack gives you the ability to turn off the Argon/Terran war in Albion Prelude. It sets the Argon - Terran relations to neutral and removes all war incursion ships.

This pack can only be used on a new game start - old games saves cannot be altered.

Simply drop the file into your "scripts" folder and start a new game.






Backgrounds Pack
Updated 22.05.13

XRM Backgrounds Pack v1.02

This pack contains cleaned up and enhanced versions of the original X3TC/AP sector backgrounds with high resolution star fields. All visibilities have been increased to stop the "cloaking device" fade effect on stations in some sectors. Fog has been made less dense and a bit more subtle.

It features a new background for the Solar system, featuring an image of the Milky Way taken from real life footage as seen from Earth.

The star fields are optimised for a view angle of 70 degrees. Higher angles may induce shimmering in the stars. This is set in the in-game menu - options - graphics.

This is not compatible with any mod that alters backgrounds.








Docking Computer Ware Size Fix for CODEA
Updated 16.05.12

Docking Computer ware size fix for CODEA

Install this cat/dat to a higher number than the base XRM. This puts the Docking Computer back to "S" ware size so it can be installed on fighters for use with CODEA.







MARS Data File
Updated 28.11.12

MARS Data File for XRM v1.27

Simply drop this file into your "t" folder. You must be running MARS v5.08 or later.








All Plots Complete Script - XRM Compatible

---Terran Conflict only---

All Plots Complete for XRM v1.5 - By Dillpickle (thread)


This is a version of Dillpickle's All Plots Complete script which has been made compatible with the XRM and tweaked to better suite the XRM style of play, including the XRM-altered A New Home sector reward.

This script will set all vanilla plots as complete. It also sets up the universe as if you had done the plots and gives you the rewards you would have received.

Simply drop the script into your "director" folder.







Advanced Universe Pack
Updated 02.10.13

Now compatible with both TC and AP

NOTE - The Advanced Universe is not compatible with the HUB plots in TC or AP.

XRM Advanced Universe Pack v1.6

Note - Installing this pack requires that you restart your game - even if you are already running the XRM. You will also need to restart your game to remove the pack.

Back story:

One Jazura ago, for an unexplained reason the gate system started behaving erratically. Their destinations kept altering and some switched off all together. It was even affecting Terran-made gates. Understanding that their economies relied on the gate system, the Commonwealth races, knowing their expertise in jump gate technology, had no choice but to ask the Terran's for help.

Terran scientists managed to stabilise the gates using technology from their old Trans-orbital Accelerators. The gates were no longer erratic, however, jump drives could no longer lock onto the gates. While attempting to lock onto the gates, it was found that if a jumpdrive's sensitivity was increased, it would start to lock onto random areas of space.

The races have now marked these "weak points" in space-time with jump beacons enabling jump drives to be used once more, albeit in a much more limited fashion.


Features:

This universe addon significantly alters the dynamics of the universe for both the player and the AI.

- Jump Drives will no longer lock onto jump gates.
- There are strategically placed jump beacons throughout the universe which are now the only locations you can use the jump drive to get to.
- Speed is now, as they say, of the essence!







XRM Maps
Updated 10.05.12

XRM:Albion Prelude Map

XRM:Terran Conflict Map

These maps were created using X3 Map by Scorp

I have edited them slightly to move the Terran sectors into their in-game universe map position.




XRM Names

Its important for me that Betty can say all of the names of all the ships in the XRM. In order to accomplish that, many of the new ships taken from the various merged mods as well as many of the new ships added in AP have had changes to their names.

Here is a complete list of all of the changes:

- INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS -

XRM requires that you start a new game. It is recommended that you install the XRM on a fresh installation of X3TC or AP

XRM Installation Guide Video By InFlamesForEver - For Albion Prelude. TC users see below.



TERRAN CONFLICT INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
See below for Albion Prelude installation instructions.

-The "fake patch" method works best for the XRM. I do not recommend using the Plugin Manager to install the XRM as it's extremely difficult to control the order the mods are installed in which can lead to problems.

- Extract the three parts to a temporary folder and look at the other dat/cat files you have in the main TC installation folder. Rename the XRM cat/dats to the next consecutive number from the existing ones, i.e. if the last ones are 13.dat and 13.cat rename the XRM files to 14.dat/14.cat and 15.dat/15.cat. Move the XRM cat/dats to the TC installation folder.

- It does not matter which order the XRM "parts" are installed in, however, please note which one is which as updates may only be on one file or the other. Addon packs must be installed to higher cat/dat numbers than the base XRM.

- Copy the contents of the "director" folder to the director folder in your main X3TC directory. If a director folder does not exist then create one.

- Copy the contents of the "t" folder to the t folder in your main X3TC directory. If a t folder does not exist then create one.

- Copy the contents of the "scripts_TC" folder to the "scripts" folder in your main X3TC directory. Overwrite any existing files.

- From Part 3 copy the contents of the "mov" folder to the same folder in your TC directory.

- From Part 3 Copy the contents of the soundtrack folder to the same folder in your TC directory.

- You will need to navigate to the \mov folder in your TC directory, locate the 00044 file and either rename, move, or delete this file. Without doing this you will not get any new custom names said by "betty".

- Before running X3TC you must open and close the Plugin Manager (if installed), regardless of which version you are running. This is so the Plugin Manager can integrate the XRM ware size changes.

- Run the game. You should get a message saying the XRM has been installed when you start a new game.

- There will be a pause for a minute or two at the start of a new game. This is the scripts allocating weapons to all the initially created jobs. This pause only happens at the very start of a new game.

-To install the hull packs, cockpit packs and background pack simply extract the contents to the X3TC directory and rename the hull pack or cockpit pack cat/dat to a higher number than the main XRM mod. To reload the hulls for all ships, run X3TC, enter the script editor, highlight the script "temp.xrm.hull.reload.xml" and hit "r".

- If using the XRM in conjunction with other mods, installation order may be essential. Please see the compatibility notes below for any special cases.

- To install the Advanced Universe Addon Pack Place the cat/dat for the addon pack at a higher number than XRM Part 2. You must start a new game after installation. If using the "All Plots Complete" script - it is essential that you install the compatible version included with the Advanced Universe package - the standard XRM compatible version will cause issues.

- To install the load screens copy the contents of "loadscr" in part 2 to the "loadscr" folder in your TC install.





ALBION PRELUDE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

-The "fake patch" method works best for the XRM. I do not recommend using the Plugin Manager to install the XRM as it's extremely difficult to control the order the mods are installed in which can lead to problems.

- Extract the three parts to a temporary folder and look at the other dat/cat files you have in the main AP installation folder (in your Terran Conflict\Addon directory). Rename the XRM cat/dats to the next consecutive number from the existing ones, i.e. if the last ones are 03.dat and 03.cat rename the XRM files to 04.dat/04.cat and 05.dat/05.cat. Move the XRM cat/dats to the AP installation folder.

- NOTE - THEY MUST HAVE TWO DIGITS! It is essential that your cat/dat pairs have two digits in the file name. So they must be "04.cat/dat" - not "4.cat/dat". The "0" is vital.

- It does not matter which order the two XRM "parts" are installed in, however, please note which one is which as updates may only be on one file or the other. Addon packs must be installed to higher cat/dat numbers than the base XRM.

- Copy the contents of the "director" folder to the director folder in your main AP (addon) directory. If a director folder does not exist then create one.

- Copy the contents of the "t" folder to the t folder in your main AP (addon) directory. If a t folder does not exist then create one.

- Copy the contents of the "scripts_AP" folder to the "scripts" folder in your main AP (addon) directory. Overwrite any existing files.

- From Part 3 copy the contents of the "mov" folder to the same folder in your AP (addon) directory overwriting or renaming the existing files.

- From Part 3 Copy the contents of the "soundtrack" folder to the same folder in the underlying TC directory - NOT ADDON - where all the other music tracks are found.

- You will need to navigate to the \mov folder in your AP (addon) directory. you will need to locate the 00044 file and either rename, move, or delete this file. Without doing this you will not get any new custom names said by "betty".

- Before running X3AP you must open and close the Plugin Manager (if installed), regardless of which version you are running. This is so the Plugin Manager can integrate the XRM ware size changes.

- Run the game. You should get a message saying the XRM has been installed when you start a new game.

- There will be a pause for a minute or two at the start of a new game. This is the scripts allocating weapons to all the initially created jobs. This pause only happens at the very start of a new game.

-To install the hull packs, cockpit packs and background pack simply extract the contents to the AP (addon) directory and rename the hull pack or cockpit pack cat/dat to a higher number than the main XRM mod. To reload the hulls for all ships, run X3AP, enter the script editor, highlight the script "temp.xrm.hull.reload.xml" and hit "r".

- If using the XRM in conjunction with other mods, installation order may be essential. Please see the compatibility notes below for any special cases.

- To install the load screens copy the contents of "loadscr" in part 2 to the "addon/loadscr" folder.





STEAM INSTALLATIONS -

You will need to recopy all scripts from Part 2 whenever TC or AP update via Steam or if Steam verifies the game cache - BEFORE loading an XRM save. This is because it will pick up the XRM modified versions of scripts and replace them with vanilla versions. Also steam will put the 00044 file back into the mov folder so this will need removing again.

Best practise is to create a completely separate X3 installation for the XRM and keep your main steam install as vanilla. Simply copy and past the entire Terran Conflict directory (for both AP and TC) to a new location. Use the no-steam exe from the Egosoft downloads section. Be aware than if you have multiple copies of X3, they will all use the same save game folder.







- XRM SPECIAL FEATURES INSTRUCTIONS -



JUMPDRIVE DEPLOYMENT KITS

Jumpdrive deployment kits are specialist wares to assist with the deployment of jumpdrives to a fleet of ships without having to dock each one at an equipment dock. They can be bought in bulk and transported onto a jumpdrive compatible ship. When activated they will deploy a jumpdrive.

To activate them follow these instructions: XRM installs a configurable hotkey which, when activated will run a script to activate the deployment kit. It can be run on a single ship or a station or carrier with ships containing a deployment kit docked.

- You must assign a hotkey to activate the Jumpdrive Deployment Kit function first.

- Check that the ship or ships on which you wish to activate the kit are compatible with a standard jumpdrive and have at least one jumpdrive deployment kit in their cargo bay.

- Target the ship or carrier/station with ships docked and hit the hotkey, or alternatively you can choose to run the deployment function on a target selected from the universe map or your own player ship.

- The operation will take approximately twenty seconds to complete and will deploy one jumpdrive at the cost of one deployment kit.




RACE MILITARY INTELLIGENCE NETWORKS

Each of the main races has a Military Intelligence Network. This will report all current enemy activity in the race's space and also any current military action. In order to connect to a race's military intelligence network, you must have positive rep and hold a valid police/security license for that race. A USC Security License has been added for the Terran's and is available from Orbital Defence Stations.

To connect:

- assign a hotkey for the network in your control configuration.

- after hitting the hotkey, chose which race's network you wish to connect to.




THE XRM BOUNTY SYSTEM

Each of the main races will offer bounties on enemy ships. The bounties offered depend on the actions of the ship in question. The more ships it destroys, the larger the bounty becomes. It is also dependent on its ship class and the class of the ships it destroys.

You can access a list of current offered bounties, with the ship name and ID, the pilot name, its last known location and the value of the bounty, via each race's Military Intelligence Network (via a hotkey). You can also run a bounty check on any ship via the military intel comms menu or directly on your current target by an added "Bounty Check" hotkey. Simply set this hotkey up in your control configuration menu. Any ship flagged with a bounty will be marked with a "$" in the universe map.

To win the bounty you must have a police licence with the race in question and positive rep. All player owned ships can score bounty kills.

You can win minor bounties by attacking enemies in sectors bordering a race sector (e.g. by killing pirates in a pirate sector adjacent to an Argon sector). You can win rep bounties from the ATF by attacking Xenon ships in Xenon space and small bounties from Operation Final Fury by killing Kha'ak ships in Kha'ak space.

You can score bounties from destroying enemy stations. This not only includes pirate bases or Xenon stations, but also stations where the races are at "war". So go on a foray into Terran space armed with an Argon Police Licence and a few trusty Firestorm Torpedos and rack up some cash by taking out Terran docks or shipyards. Or if you like the Split and hate the Boron, get a Split police licence and take out some Boron stations. You can only score bounties from destroying Docks or Shipyards - Factories are not included.

If you go after Xenon or Pirate bases in their own sectors, you will receive smaller bounties from any race that has a sector within two jumps of your location. Destroying Kha'ak stations will score bounties from Operation Final Fury.





XRM MERCHANT/BARTERING SYSTEM:

You still access it in the same way as vanilla - hit the bartering button, just below the trade button when docked.

Rather than a couple of merchants selling not much, you should now see a larger number of merchants selling a large array of wares. Merchants tend to hang out at Trading Stations, so thats the place to go for the best deals. Merchants do not hang out at Shipyards or Equipment Docks.

The more dangerous the sector, the better chance there is of finding a high rated merchant selling more "exotic" goods. Border and Teladi sectors are good, Pirate or Unknown sectors are best.

You will find merchants who sell Ship Upgrades, Ship Blueprints and Sector/Station Coordinates - again the more dangerous the sector the more likely you'll find the good stuff!

If you are near Xenon space or one of the sectors thought to be part of Kha'ak space, you may find merchants selling Kha'ak or Xenon weapons or blueprints.






SYSTEM OVERRIDE SOFTWARE:

The vanilla System Override Software has had a makeover for the XRM. It can now be used to claim any abandoned ship - of any class or type, from a range of about 2km (depending on the size of the target). Rather than the usual "instant claim" that most claim scripts use, this one takes a bit of time for the system hack to take place. So I feel its a little more balanced. I highly recommend using this in conjunction with the NPC Bailing script.

In addition, the System Override Software can be used to try to take over a currently active ship. First, you need to get the shields of the target down, then you need to keep them down while staying as close as you can to the target and activating the SOS. The hack will take longer than it does for an abandoned ship and the target's board computer may spot the hack and sever the connection. If the override sequence completes, the target's pilot (and crew) will be ejected and you will gain control of the ship. If at any time the shields of the target start to rise or you move too far away from the target, the remote connection to the target will be lost and the hack will fail. If the pilot bails in the normal way during this process, the hack will continue and you will gain control of the ship. The more damaged the ship's hull becomes, the greater your chances of a successful hack, and the less time each phase of the hack will take.

To activate the new SOS system, you need to first buy the software, then allocate it a hotkey in the usual way. To hack an active ship, you also require a supply of hackerchips. The number of hackerchips requried depends on the class of the ship you are trying to hack. Simply move within range, ensure the targets shields are down and hit the hotkey. I have increased the selling locations of the software to make it easier to obtain. At the moment the SOS can only be activated from the player ship. The software's vanilla behaviour is unaffected.

The System Override Software is still illegal in many sectors so be careful not to get scanned with it (or get yourself the Software Signature Scrambler). Hackerchips are also illegal and are not hidden by the Software Signature Scrambler, so you'll have to be careful if going after "live" ships.







PRIVATEER TRADING POSTS (AP Only):

These will spawn occasionally in border sectors, but mostly in pirate and unknown sectors. They are independent owned so will allow you to dock and trade no matter your rep with the main races.

They sell a variety of goods and are good hangouts for merchants selling goods for the more "discerning" client.

Occasionally, they will relocate.

Due to issues with the spare races, these are not available in TC.






PAR SHIPS AND SHIPYARDS

PAR Ships are preconfigured ships that come with all required software, weapons and shields as “built-in” components. They can be bought from PAR Shipyards. On purchase, the weapons systems are not initialised. To activate them follow these instructions:

XRM installs a configurable hotkey which, when activated will run a script to equip the weapon systems and shields of any PAR ships found. It can be run on a single ship or a station or carrier with PAR ships docked.

- You must assign a hotkey to activate the PAR equip function first.

- Target the PAR ship or carrier/station with PAR ships docked and hit the hotkey, or alternatively you can choose to run the equip function on a target selected from the universe map.

- The operation will clear the cargo bay of any PAR ships found, so run it before you mount any missiles.




USING ORBITAL WEAPON PLATFORMS

OWPs are purchasable at many shipyards in universe. To use them follow these instructions:

- You need to assign a Hotkey to the OWP activation command first.

- You purchase and deploy them as Stations using a TL in the usual way. DO NOT DOCK AT IT WHILE IT'S STILL IN STATION MODE!

- Target the OWP and hit the Activation hotkey, you should hear Betty say "Weapons Systems Activated" (This will switch out that OWP "Station" for a working one.)

- The OWP is now ready for use.



OTAS MAINTENANCE PODS

These are available from the Otas shipyard and can be used to repair your ships faster than using the repair laser. They require Quantum Tubes as ammo.

Once bought, simply mount the four built-in Quantum Pulse Repair Lasers into the four weapon slots, get some Quantum Tubes and fire at a damaged ship.



MISSILE ICONS

Missile icons are colour coded icons to help with missile selection. The colour key is as follows:

Green - close range missiles (0-22km)
Blue - medium-close range missiles (22-35km)
Purple - medium-long range missiles (35-60km)
Red - long range missiles. (60+km)




- DEVELOPMENT NOTES -

There are some changes that have been made to certain wares that have raised a few eyebrows. These include, making the jumpdrive unavailable to fighters and increasing the prices of certain wares. I firmly believe these changes are essential to the XRM "feel" I wanted to achieve so I will not be changing them back - so please stop asking! :wink:

PERFORMANCE ISSUES? Click here

Check out our FAQ (alternative download link over xdownloads here) for troubleshooting and other information.
Thanks to NOValdemar for putting this together.

For information on how the Missile Frigates and Bombers function in XRM, see this post

Seeing "readtext" errors or "invalid" on station names? You likely have a mod conflict. Post in the thread and I'll try and help.







- COMPATIBILITY NOTES -


The XRM is fully compatible with the latest release of both Terran Conflict and Albion Prelude.

NOTE - The main Argon plot is not available in Albion Prelude. This is due to compatibility issues with the XRM replacement "War". However, the new Terran, PHQ and HUB plots are available. Also the Corporation and Treasure Hunt plots from TC are available in XRM:AP.

All plots are available in Terran Conflict.




Do not separately install the EMP mod. The EMP ware entries are fully merged with the SRM and installing the EMP on top will break the XRM. All scripts that require the EMP should work correctly.





XRM is NOT compatible with the following mods:

XTended: Both XTC and XRM are full conversion mods so are inherently incompatible.

Cadius's Xtra Ships Pack: Mostly integrated into the XRM.

Combat Mod III/IV: Now a core part of the XRM.

eldyranx3's ATF Shipyard (TRP): Incompatible due to the XRM having similar integrated shipyards.

eldyranx3's Project Sleipnir (TRP): Incompatible due to the XRM Universe Map having similar features.

eldyranx3's USC Merchant Marines (TRP): Incompatible due to Tships conflict.

Ketraar's Marking Unknown Sectors: Incompatible due to the XRM Universe Map already having the same features.

LitCube's Revelations Mod: Incompatible due to overlapping sectors.

XSP ships installed via the plugin manager.

Ship Rebalance Mod: Continued: Now a core part of the XRM.

Sunblade's Lost Numbers: Incompatible due to the XRM Universe Map already having the same features.

Graxter's Player HQ hack

X3 Unleashed: Conflicts with the XRM Jobs File.

Enhanced Equipment Spawner - its sister mod CWP is integrated into the XRM.

Any cockpit mod - please use the provided addon pack.

Any trail or engine effect mod - These are integrated into the XRM.

Any mod that alters the base universe.

Any mod that adds ships.

Any mod that alters comm range or scanner range (XRM has these implemented already)






This mod is 100% compatible with the following scripts if the attached instructions are adhered to:


ENHANCED EQUIPMENT DOCKS: THIS WILL ONLY WORK WITH THE LATEST EED RELEASE V2.7-2.2. Install base EED mod to the lowest cat/dat number then XRM. You must install the scripts from EED, but DO NOT install the text file for the "t" folder. I have included an edited text file for EED in the main SRM mod.


MARS: MARS is compatible - Do not use the full repackaged version - either use the manual install and do not install the MARS drones cat/dat - just the scripts. The drones are already merged into the XRM and installing them will break the XRM, or use Bullwinkle's repackaged version for mods that include TShips. You will also need the custom MARS data file above. Simply copy this into your "t" folder ("addon\t" for AP)


Complex Cleaner, FDN v7, MPM v7, SSDN v7: install the base cat/dat from these mods/scripts to the lowest cat/dat number, then the XRM base mod and addon packs as higher numbers.



KOG mod: install the XRM base mod and addon packs and then install the "SRM Compatible" version of the KOG mod to a higher cat/dat number.


Immersive Environments: Install the IE base mod to a lower cat/dat than the XRM. You will lose the universe changes IE makes, but you will still see the new backgrounds. Do not install the XRM backgrounds pack if running IE.




IEX: Install the XRMi version. Go to the IEX thread for more information.




Compatibility with Ketraar's Random Sector Management Mod: Incompatible due to overlapping sectors. However we have a compatibility file which should make it work:
RSM COMPATIBILITY PATCH (alternative download link over xdownloads here)




The XRM is NOT compatible with full cockpit mods, engine trail mods, any mod that adds ships, or any mod that alters TWareT (Except the EMP which is merged). Please use the compatible versions provided above in the addon packs.

- ESSENTIAL SCRIPTS -

TERRAN CONFLICT ONLY

Gazz's Missile Defence Mk2 script is essential to temper the much faster missiles in XRM. It will be used by both the player and the Ai automatically. I recommend installing this even if using another turret script like MARS.

Gazz's Missile Safety script is also highly recommended.


--Both these scripts are already integrated into Albion Prelude--






- RECOMMENDED SCRIPTS -

INSTALLATION OF THE FOLLOWING SCRIPTS IS ENTIRELY VOLUNTARY AND IS NOT SUGGESTED IF YOU ARE NOT SURE ABOUT HOW TO INSTALL A THIRD-PARTY SCRIPT AND CONFIGURE IT PROPERLY. XRM HAS NO ASSOCIATION WITH THESE SCRIPTS AND CANNOT EXTEND SUPPORT FOR THEIR USE NOR BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE IF YOU MESS UP YOUR GAME.

INSTALL THESE AT YOUR OWN RISK, UPON YOUR OWN MERIT, BASED ON YOUR OWN JUDGEMENT!



ThisIsHarsh's Military Base Response Revamp TERRAN CONFLICT ONLY
As XRM Jobs is pretty well balanced in terms of military numbers (if I do say so myself), MBRR is pretty much the best one to use to take advantage of those numbers of hand-placed deployments (without changing X3TC on the whole) by allowing those military ships to actually do the things they were intended to do, instead of sitting there oblivious to things around them, without adding any extra ships in the process.

For a serious game, I would however suggest turning the Invasion, Sector Takeover, and Rearguard settings OFF and merely allowing MBRR to do what it does best with the ships that are available to it. If using an invasion type script like Pirate Guild you can experiment with rearguard settings, but keep token numbers below 200.

We also recommend switching off the prestige reward system as the XRM provides its own bounty system.

As of v1.09 XRM jobs have been altered so that MBRR can fully utilise the XRM placed military ships.

MBRR is not necessary for XRM in Albion Prelude. AP includes its own race response system which XRM fully utilises.



Logain Abler's Freight Distribution Network Lite
Entirely removes the need for tubes and complexes and fleets of internal-supply transports by allowing player-owned stations within a single sector to distribute their goods to other player-owned stations that require them.


Lazerath's LazCorp Claim Sector
Allows the player to claim a sector as their own once they've removed all traces of the previous owners (if there were any) from the area. Also includes a substantial diplomatic hit if you happen to claim a sector that belonged to another race.


Trickmov's STO 1.57 - overtake sectors
A more full-featured sector take over script, including NPC station building, taxes and banking.


Logain Industries Capital Ship Energy Cell Generator (CSecG)
Once you buy the ware, it will allow your capital ships to generate their own Energy Cells over time (up to a defined limit)! Never run out of jump-fuel again!


Tatakau's Marine Repairs 2
Allows Marines on your vessels to repair your ship (and any docked ships) depending on how skilled they are in Engineering and Mechanics. Pretty much an essential download if you want the Tepukei to work as Cadius intended.









Gazz's Missile Defence MK2 / Shimrod's Smart Turrets TERRAN CONFLICT ONLY
Missile Defence MK2 is essential to properly counter-balance the far deadlier missiles that are present in XRM. Smart Turrets is a lighter alternative to MARS that allows for many of the same functions, just without the advanced features (and Goblins). If you don't plan on using MARS, then at least pick up one of these.

MDMk2 is not required for Albion Prelude as it is built into the game already.


Familiar's Pure X HUD
Based on Ulfius's Military Hud (which veterans of CMOD 3 will fondly remember) and Samuel Creshal's YS-HUD-Mod, Familiar has created a "more laconic and clear interface" specifically for use with CMOD 4, which I think is a fantastic "upgrade" of the Vanilla HUD without entirely overhauling it in the process.


ThisIsHarsh's Salvage Commands and NPCs
This script is essential if only for the "Universe Salvager" command, which will allow your TS and TPs (and other ships) to hop around the universe looking for missile containers to collect that have been left behind in the wake of battles. This is a fantastic way of generating some extra income if you're having trouble with the SSRP price changes - or for just keeping your M7Ms stocked for free!


The following (other) scripts by Gazz:
Docking Lockup Fix + Docking Computer Use, Follow Me! Remember Homebase / Wingman Status, Auto Jump; Terran Jump, Hitting Jumpgates Causes No Notoriety Loss, and Numeric Race Ranks.


Both Paul and I use a lot of other scripts as well (like Litcube's Bounce! and Phanon Corp scripts); but these are the "bare essentials" ones that I feel everyone should have to begin with to get the most enjoyment out of X3TC in conjunction with XRM. - Mizuchi

Special thanks to the X Universe team for their kind hosting of the XRM.



Special thanks to SomeoneElse for the original SRM mod, without which none of this would have happened.

So, as of the 17th of August, I am no longer involved in any updates after v1.06. XRM is now fully under Paul's control again, and I am totally out of the game for reasons stated in graphical form above!.

(I'm off to Japan!)

Thanks to everyone for their support, and thanks in advance to everyone for their future support (of Paul, especially).

It's been a lot of fun working with Paul and getting XRM out to you guys, and I'm pretty proud of what we've accomplished here and all the improvements we've made to X3TC in the process.

Maybe I'll see you all in a year or so. 8)

(That said, Paul knows how to get a hold of me.)

Be good! (Or at least some approximation of it!)

(And don't touch my stuff!)

Sounding very good paulwheeler 8) Good to see my capital ship effects are being put to good use(and improved).

Have to give this a blast at some point in the near future.

Edit just read that its still compatible with my KOG mod. Guess that gives me a few options to create missions for your mod now as well.

COMPATIBILITY Question:
What's with Luckies Script Collection?

With his economic scripts the game would be perfect. :-)

By the way XRM sounds fantastic.

There were so many changes, Mizuchi and me were just going at it. If we'd kept a record it would have taken another two weeks for release.

The main changes from the SRM are the universe changes, weapon racialisation, new weapons and the custom jobs.

In the meanwhile I'm cleaning my installation from the things that are now redundant (bye bye EES, bye bye customized mus...), and re-extracting what I plan to merge in once again.

You mentioned there would have been "partial compatibility" with Immersive Environments in the SRM thread. When you've got a minute of break could you give us specifics? A simple fake patch load order would overwrite it as needed, or should we remove something in its cat/dat to avoid issues?

You should have seen the change list I was keeping for the Universe Expansion ALONE before I thought, well, forget that then. :roll:

I've added Immersive Environments to the compatibility notes above.

I guess it depends on how big you made the Jumpdrive (trading scripts), and the docking computer (codea).

edit: also, is it compatible with the bonus steam mission, or will it need a disable fix like XTC does?

Thanks, that's perfect. I had done some personal rebalancing of IE's Tbackgrounds, it's a relief to see these will keep working without further effort :)

If it's located at 17,8 between Gaian Star and Midnight Star (which is the impression I got from the XTC post - thanks for adding that, it was informative!) then it should be 100% compatible.

The "A New Home" plot(s) are also fine with XRM. I didn't use any of the ANH names for the new sectors in the expanded universe map, and I took care to avoid changing things to that part of the universe too much.
