Ah good to know, but the size is a problem? I am creating a lot bigger ship right now in blender, this must not be.snackynak wrote: ↑Tue, 12. Feb 19, 20:45 I've have the Fulmekron in X4 right now, but it's size is an issue from what I can tell. Unless you can hit the gates at full travel speed, the ship gets stuck in the gate. I haven't tested it in the 2.0 beta, but the balor that I got in game just stopped showing up in shipyards and won't spawn for some reason in 2.0.
The lenght of the ship will become a problem for my new ship too.snackynak wrote: ↑Wed, 13. Feb 19, 00:37 I'm thinking its the length of the ship. When you exit out of other end of the gate, the ship is still in the "teleport" area and you get sent back to where to came, repeating forever. Unless you're going fast enough and nothing hits you. As far as the Balor goes, I have no clue as of yet. It shows up fine in the current public build, but in Beta 2.0 it doesn't. I doubled checked all the component and macro index files, did component tag and macro comparisons with ships that still work in 2.0, I tried removing the invisible missile launchers that I made and that did nothing. All the other ships I've ported still work, the Taranis, Sul, Sequana, and Midir. The plus side though is the invisible launch tubes work even better in 2.0 because fighters now use them.
Edit, also the Fulmekron also doesn't appear in beta 2.0 as well. I don't know what these two ships even have in common as to why they wouldn't. The Fulmekron is a modular ship, the Balor isn't, this might be something else beyond my control, I might have to wait until 2.0 is out of beta...
Antimatter is a Turret, you cant control it directly, but you can give the turret group the command to attack player targeted target only.Thecrippler wrote: ↑Wed, 13.

And if you update or switch between versions, always delete all "ashipmod" folders and copy the downloaded folders in your extensions directory.
Strange, in an old version, there was an update script, which didn't run very well.
You should search in your savegame for "units_size_xl_capital_destroyer_2_macro" and there should be entries like "connection_engine01" and "connection_engine02".
It should look like this with engines:Code: Select all
<connection connection="connection_engine01"> <component class="engine" macro="engine_arg_xl_travel_01_mk1_macro" connection="engineconnection01" id="[0x74017]"> <offset> <position x="75.122" y="-23.498" z="-730"/> </offset> <animations> <animation part="detail_xs_lookat_target"> <part time="231596.975" sequence="flaps_right_minmax"/> </animation> <animation part="anim_flame01"> <part time="231710.614"/> <texture> <channel channel="1"> <value time="231710.614" property="u_offset"/> </channel> </texture> </animation> </animations> <render> <parameter flags="override" value="0" owner="[0x74017]" name="mat_dynamicglow" type="glow"> <persistent start="231596.975" duration="-1" value="1" target="1"/> </parameter> </render> </component> </connection> <connection connection="connection_engine02"> <component class="engine" macro="engine_arg_xl_travel_01_mk1_macro" connection="engineconnection01" id="[0x74016]"> <offset> <position x="-75.186" y="-23.498" z="-730"/> </offset> <animations> <animation part="detail_xs_lookat_target"> <part time="231596.975" sequence="flaps_right_minmax"/> </animation> <animation part="anim_flame01"> <part time="231710.614"/> <texture> <channel channel="1"> <value time="231710.614" property="u_offset"/> </channel> </texture> </animation> </animations> <render> <parameter flags="override" value="0" owner="[0x74016]" name="mat_dynamicglow" type="glow"> <persistent start="231596.975" duration="-1" value="1" target="1"/> </parameter> </render> </component> </connection>
You have to unzip the gz file, edit the save with notepad++ and then add the edited save back to the gz file.Thecrippler wrote: ↑Wed, 13.

In the save file, search for the ship (units_size_xl_capital_destroyer_2_macro) and then look at the connection_engine01 and paste over the whole code i posted here.
Backup your savefile before.
Hmm, never had this. Did you try with notepad++ 64bit? Maybe this can open greater files.Thecrippler wrote: ↑Thu, 14. Feb 19, 14:47 i did that but every time i try to open the file with notepad++ am getting a File is too big to be opened by notepad++![]()

You have to compress it to gz format, i am doing this with 7zip. Or you can open the old gz file an insert the edited xml file so it overrides the old one in the .gz file.Thecrippler wrote: ↑Thu, 14.

Ok the program works now and was able to add the code you give me but got another problem every time i'm trying to compress the file back to rar or zip is making a extra folder inside RAR or ZIP (save_003.xml folder then /save_003.xml Text)
Now if i only compares the save_003.xml Text to rar or zip the game does not to see the save file
Is it possible you can send me a screenshot haw to compress gz format I apologize for bragging you with this stuffsco1981 wrote: ↑Fri, 15.

My OS language is german, so don't think a screenshot helps.
Rightlick on save_001.xml --> 7zip --> add to archive --> archive name: save_001.xml.gz --> archive format: gzip --> ok
This should zip this to gz file without folders in it.
Ah ok, then it could be, that you buy the new macro version, this is units_sco_xl_capital_destroyer_1_macro....if you want to load the old save and try it again.Thecrippler wrote: ↑Sat, 16. Feb 19, 12:09 sco1981 i would like to thank you again for helping me in the end i find out the "units_size_xl_capital_destroyer_2_macro did not exist in my save file they were in the game but not in saveso i sold them to HOP faction one instantly disappear 26 mil back the other ships again sell 26 mil but blow up by ARG
so thank you again

well he is the only one atm to upload the mod even if it's a test mod i love it this mod is the only thing that keeps me playing now compared to the others moders atm silenceShehriazad wrote: ↑Sat, 16. Feb 19, 20:03 So that Teladi is your own take on a Teladi capital ship based on the style of Egosoft?
Not gonna lie it looks REALLY good. If you end up making a new heavily modded supercarrier ship based on the Gangrene Chaser and submit it to my mod contest I'd definitely love you for it!
