New version of Doubleshadow's X2 Editor (0.36) available

[SteelRush]

Would it be possible to add to the race selection dropdown, the 5 custom races slots? I am using two of the custom race slots in a mod in progress, and I have to use XeHonk's galaxy editor as it's the only one to let me use those slots, so I can set ownership of items to the "custom races".

Hi! I have been trying to get the doubleshadow editor for sometime now but everytime I dl the supposed extra files needed for it I end up with a corrupt file, I have a dial up and dling a couple times makes ya mad. LOL.

Well, what I really need is a step by step instruction.

My purpose is Simple:

1. Edit the weapon speed/damage/range of the game.
2. Edit the statistics of the Ships.

So what I need is:

1. The specific file names of the Doubleshadow editor I have the following:

a. x2e_runtime2_install.exe
b. vbRuntime_install.exe

2. The site to get them at besides the one listed.
3. How to install and make it work!

Thank you! If this answere elsewhere please point me at the right direction! thank you!

I'm in need of this utility, but I can't seem to get the download to work - hell, the links just stop working for some reason.

Can these be sent to me via AIM or something, please?

You should had bad luck, i'm hosting these files, and i've tested several times, downloads work fine, atm.

Try :
http://doubleshadow.fxnetworks.org/x2e/ ... nstall.zip
http://doubleshadow.fxnetworks.org/x2e/ ... o_0.37.zip

cheers.

Im using X2E on a D2D install with no mods and no scripts. I keep getting the error: Invalid size in CAT entry.
How do i remedy this?

[Serial Kicked]

Hi and welcome here,

D2D files are corrupted. But I've seen a topic (HERE) about this issue, maybe it will help you.

HELP I cant download the Doubleshadows Editor It just comes up as "page not found" please help

[Serial Kicked]

Look at the previous page of this topic, i've posted the direct download links.

[Kurashima]

Direct Links dont work my friend, its just a broken link.

Is this related to your hosting being down? If so, its terrible timing (for me anyway).

For anyone having trouble installing the X2 TXT editor I found a link for the zlib and vbfiles you will need.

http://apricotmappingservice.com/X3TCdownloads/

# X3TC-DS-VBRuntime_install.exe
# X3TC-DS-X2E_runtime2_install.exe

They are used in the X3 editors but they work.

Links are broken on FireFox for me, but they work with Chrome.

I'm trying to unpack some lib scripts (the ones with a ! as first character in name with .pck ext) from Steam version but cannot open them "Bad data in file".
Anyone knows how I can read those scripts?

Open any script .PCK format with Exscriptor and save it as XML.

Yay, it turned to work ! (required to start Exscriptor as Admin to be able to read game files, if another nut nut like me still plays this game and want to cheat by reading IA scripts )

I hopped this !ship.signal.attacked.pck script would contain the random bailing logic (trying to cheat by *dramatic voice* KNOWLEDGE) but no luck.

Anyway thanks a lot. Really.
