My mobile Mining base ship is now full. How do I sell the minerals? The pilot is Chief Prospector.

Cheers.

The TL can not sell minerals directly.

I tried to use this mod but a warning message said I had to be in 2.1

But I don't want to go back to 2.1 (too buggy, too laggy, freezes...) and so I prefer to stay in 2.0.
The mod said something like "X3 Union Pilot need to be in 2.1"

Is there a way to use the mod in 2.0 ?

There was also a warning saying a langage file was missing.
Probably the file for french since my game is in french, but I guess it won't harm, it won't mess the game, if I continue playing the mod without this missing file.
Is it correct ?

Thanks.

Did you download the needed libraries (link in op) ~ that is the pilot union part of the script

There was also a warning saying a langage file was missing.
Probably the file for french since my game is in french, but I guess it won't harm, it won't mess the game, if I continue playing the mod without this missing file.
Is it correct ?

it is probably the case that a lack of a french language file is the problem
http://forum.egosoft.com/viewtopic.php?t=216745
all of the language files (AFAIK) are listed here

playing without the language file will mean that all the text will be 'readtextxxxx-xxxx' where the x's are numbers.

Also, the textfile loads the commands related to the script, so no, it probably isnt playable without this file

Ok, so I will wait for someone to translate it one day in french, and for a 2.2 from egosoft since 2.1 is too laggy for me.

Thanks for the answer.

I'm a french gamer, so excuse me for my bad english.

I have a problem and my original Cd is not reconize by the game so I can't play.

I have found a Nocd but it work only with V2.0a so I can't use the last version of your wonderful mod.

Do you know a Nocd for V2.1 or can you tell me where I can found your precedent version that work with V2.0a ?

Well, his forum info tells us he's registered so he seems to have bought the game, right?

I had sort of the same problem as he did with Homeworld 2, except the other way around. I couldn't install from my DVD, but it wasn't scratchy enough so that I couldn't start the game from it.

Anyway, back on topic. This script seems awesome and I'll definately get it installed. Thanks! I love how he requires payment, wish it was the same for all my pilots. I love that type of realism.

just a note from personal observation: if you have a lot of small (TS) miners assigned to a TL (mobile mining base ship) to train pilots... be aware that your TL is gonna fill up really quickly (esp when your pilots hit miner rank, and if they are mining silicon, its not as bad with ore)

Hello.

I would like to change the english langage file of Prospektor (8006-L044.pck) in a file working on the french version of x3tc.

I have read thad I only have to change the "44" into "33" (33 is the code for french), inside the file and filename, and to save it in UTF-8.
Of course the sentences created by the script will stay in english, but it will work on french version.

The problem is that the language file is in .pck format, not in the classic and easy to open .xml file.

How to open, unpack I guess, this "8006-L044.pck" file to change inside the "44" into "33", and how to reppack it after to get a new "8006-L033.pck".
I have look a little with plugin manager, but it seems to open .spk, not .pck from what I have found.

Could you help me ?
Thanks.

Im dont totally understand the new language file system... (why the L0xx bit... 44xxxx was much better).
The game can read either .pck files or .xml files, Lucike posted all the xml versions of his script on his collection page (srry i dont have the link handy, its relatively easy to find on the german forum, they are right at the bottom of the second page), download the file (8006), and rename it as appropriate... Open the file in notepad, or a special xml editor, and change the language id to 33. and your good.

alternatively, get 7zip and extract the .pck (you will need to rename the file that is extracted to 8006 - l044 to 8006 - L044.xml so your pc will recognise it as an xml file), repeat the steps above and your golden

Sort files by name.

In X3R system you got first all russian files, ... italian, english, german. <Country><page>.pck

In X3TC system you get all versions of same page together, for example all 8006-*. It is easier to see if you have 8006 for particular language or not. <page>-L<Country>.pck

That would be my guess. File management.

Besides, IIRC, the game might be able to read a plain 8006.pck too, with no language stated on the filename.

Thanks for your help.

I had find an X3 editor (last version july, 9th, 2009), working with x3tc doing the trick (extract the .pck)
It was "X3 Editor 2"
Here is the link for those interested :
http://x-tools.doubleshadow.wz.cz/

But for a task as simple as this unpacking, 7-Zip is a better choice.

The first three characters ( ï»¿ ) of the unpacked file, just before "<?xml version= ... " should be deleted I guess.

I downloaded the script, but it isnt working

I equiped a TS Miner with all the reuqiered software, but it doesnt show the menu "Mine minerals in sector" in the special menu

The other scripts I currently have are CAG and CLS, both by Lucike, so it doesnt look like some sort of conflict

What am I doing wrong?

I did install it, but still isnt working. Is the script compatible with the latest patch?

you have a pilot?

If not dock at one station and start the commando while being docked. Then the script gets you a new pilot.
