[SCRIPT] Bounty Hunters Guild V2.80 : Updated 24/07/2007

[Minsc]

Great thanks, when I get home I'll spend the evening searching and testing all the EMP scripts I was unshure to use before!

[asmondar]

yeah that looks right, ill have to make the change when i get chance to

Cycrow, just wonding if you had made this change yet? I did it on my version, but when i do that, it removes the bount hunt commands from my menu.

I've made the change in the correct script, re-init'd, saved and quit and restarted, but the commands just arn't there anymore. I figure I'm doing something wrong, so was going to wait for you to make the change officially, then just download and reinstall.

So, just wondering.

[Cycrow]

ill get it done tommorow

HI Cycrow, thanks for the great script. Is there a way to use the script editor to cause more bounty missions? I have only gotten two missions out of 3 game days. I like these missions as it decreases your rank with the pilot's race--makes me feel more like bounty hunter scum. However, I find that increasing my rank is going along too slowly. At least with the assassin missions, whenever I dock at an Assassin station, I know that there is likely a mission there.

I run both mods, but would like to see more available missions in the BH guild stations. Does the number of missions increase with rank? If so, I will just trudge along praying to get to level 2 and up. Combining these mods with Advanced Jumprive turns you into a Bobba Fett-like Hunter and Terror.

I feel sorry for all those who wrong others, and find themselves on the business end of my LX .

Thanks again for ALL the wonderful scripts

the BH guild works differently to other missions.

unlike other missions, that are generated when u accept, the BH ones are always ongoing, theres always bounty ships flying around even when u havn't looked at the BBS. There should be about 70 missions running at any one time, so u should have plenty to do.

however, they are created slowly, so it might take awhile for them to start appearing.

also, all the active ones arn't always displayed on the BBS, its random which they display, and theres upto 10 at a time on the BBS.

if u want to find more, then dont limit urself to the guild HQ, the guild HQ has a random selection of all the currently bounties from all races, but if u goto each race stations, u'll get just the bounties from thier race.

so if u visit an argon stations, u will get completly different bounties from a paranid station

Hi Cycrow. I've been playing for a few days now, and I am a member of the BH guild, but no matter how much searching I do, I can't find any bounties. I took your above advice and tried the race stations, and then the BH guild stations, but nothing. I've checked the AL settings, and it has 4 BH scrips all set to on.

Your other guild scripts work fine for me. I'm a Merc and an Assassin.

I'm using DDRS if that makes any difference...

Any advice?

[Ikaruga]

I have the same problem as above, I get no bounties no matter the stations where I'm checking the BBS.


Which script file do I have to modify if I want to get more bounties to hunt ?

[Cycrow]

u have made sure your a member of the guild right ?

u could try checking the guild status and c if the boutny hunters guild is listing you as a member.

as for getting more, you cant easily add more bounties. U'll have to modify several files, including the check and spawning of bounties, and create extra BBS scripts for the new bounties.

however, there should be 10 bounties for each race

Hey Cycrow,

I haven't played around with the Bounty Hunter's script much since I don't get the BBS messages that often. But anyway, whenever I do get a message, the text usually makes a reference to the bounty's race. Like, you know, "Make this Teladi pay" or something. Well, instead of a race, it's almost always null. Sometimes even the pilot's name is null, so it will be "Exterminate null of the null." I'm not sure if it happens only in this script; I might have seen it in the mercenaries guild one too, but i'm not sure. Anyway, do you know what the problem is, and can I fix it? Thanks.

Hey ya, Cycrow.

I know, I'm not that active in the forum

But I do LOVE you for this script.(and many scripts)

I created my own game-start and I would like to start out as a Bounty hunter,
but got no idea how.

Can you help me which script/command line I have to write/make.

plz & thx

hmmm...did you doubl-click the SPK to install it or did you open the script-installer and installed the script?

[Cycrow]

does it not appear on the scripts list ?

[Vyruz]

It's supposed to show it on the list...

Did the script worked before? Even with Vista?

I'm not sure, but I like to say it, the prob might be Vista itself.

@Cycrow

I made a costum start, but don't know how to be a member of the BH automatically. Like the Assassin Bankrupt start as a member of the Assassin guild.
Do know any array or script command how to do that.

[jocan2003]

like i said, all the other installed correctly, the progress bar when installing goes full then nothing, progress drop to 0% its the only script that is not installing properly.

It cant be because im using vista because the other .spk would have the same problem.

For installing, i tried the right click install, then i tried droping the file right in the window, then i tried using the install new script, i also tried all the above in a dummy installation ( fake X3.exe wich all the other script worked too )

i think this post will answer al lpossible question

[arcana75]

Cycrow, lately I've been noticing bounties spawn with No Pilot of null. So far 3 of 3.

[Jasper Carrot]

Well. That was lucky. I was about to add that I had a problem running this script but thank goodness that I can read

[Laureati]

Could this plugin be tied to the Race Police License instead of a Guild? So instead of claiming bounties at the guild station players would do so at any of the race's free trading stations.

Just an idea. Personally I just find the current Race Police Licenses a bit lacking and was working on an idea like this for them... but since this Plugin is already out...

[Cycrow]

it was designed to be seperate from the race licences.

but i do have another script that makes use of them.
the Race Miltary script uses race licences
