is there any way for me to get it back in, since i quite like it.

You'd have to manually add the entry into tships and also add the model and scene file. Its not that complicated and there are plenty of tutorials in this forum to help.

Understandable. Will be nice to see what you come up with.

Here's a video just to show them even more clearly than my screenshots can. So you can see them (as best as currently possible) in action. I've also edited my post above to include this video.

Could someone direct me to a description of all the various buyable stations in SRM? I was looking through the pdf in the OP but couldnt find a description of the capabilities of the asteroid base in particular.

Hi, got a question. Since X Plugin Manager upgraded I can't install this mod anymore but receice an error. I already put this question at that topic (with the error log) but have no clue what to do. Only this mod failes to open. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I tell you what, those Xenon Z's are NO JOKE. 14 GJ of shielding and what seems to be 12 bay turrets all around full of heavy weapons, plus their typical escorts, means you better bring some serious firepower to that fight.

They seem to be the ultimate in weapon loadout flexibility and shielding. I want to capture one! Especially with high_hull, these are epic battles. A far cry from the pushovers in vanilla.

Having a lot of fun! Great work.

Hehe, I managed to capture one.

12 guns on each side with 10 up front and 6 everywhere else. I immediately had it reverse-engineered. Now I can litter the universe with my own Z army!

The spk probably needs recompiling to work with the latest release. I will do this for the next update. If you can't hang on till then, try the manual install.

Paul, did you increase the power output of the Vidar and Vali? With the addition of the FPD the laser generators on those ships can't handle the power drain since they were designed to use EMPC's.

Paul I don't know where to post this (CMOD or SRM trails?) but for my game, firestorm torpedo explosions show a wierd texture expansion/contraction of some weird cockpit monitor screens.

I'm using your latest CMOD, SRM and the MDM combination.

This is a cmod bug. I noticed it myself the other day. I've already fixed it and it will be included with the next cmod release - sometime over the next week or so.

Since the FPD is aimed at frigates, is this such a bad thing? Its energy drain is no worse than the CIG.

The Vali may gain additional laser energy in my overhaul of heavy m6s, however the Vidar is meant to be a lighter ship.

How tough was it to cap, if I may ask? I've heard Xenon ships are next to impossible to get... but I haven't actually tried. I especially hear a lot of people talk about how hard the Q is to get.

BTW, SRMstats says Z has 6x2 GJ, but in game it says 7x2 GJ.

Hey,

I noticed that the Ion Mine Fab (Boron) and Tracker Mine Fab (Split) produce the wrong product.

Currently... the Ion Mine Fab produces Tracker Mines and the Tracker Mine Fab produces Ion Mines.

Cheers,
M.

Valhalla does not show up in the Encyclopedia. Wanted to see what turrets it has... etc.

I have discovered the ATF Headquarters at the Moon, so it's not because I don't know where it is in game. It just isn't listed.

It shall be my next purchase, regardless.

EDIT: Looking in tships at Valhalla, it doesn't list any compatible guns. I wonder if I buy one will it be able to mount any guns?

Same with Odin, Tyr, Woden, Skirmir, Lofn, and Kvasir.

I ask because I'm trying to use tships to tell me what all guns and turrets/bays a ship has, to make my own spreadsheet for them, as SRM stats doesn't give turret info.

Advent1s · Post by **Advent1s** » Sun, 17. Apr 11, 17:47

Im just wondering if a response overhaul is recommended for this or in general?

Im torn between RFF and MBRR, not sure what to go for?

Cadius · Post by **Cadius** » Sun, 17. Apr 11, 20:13

@builder680: if you're looking at the "Compatible Guns" section in TShip, that only lists weapons mounted on the main guns. Most capital ships don't have main guns. Best place to look at each ship's weapon compatibility would be in the ship's info tab ingame. Otherwise you'll have to sort through looking at each ship's turret config in TShip and comparing it to data in TCockpits.

@Advent1s: Why not go with IR? Otherwise, RRF is good too. Abit too good maybe :/

Ah, I see. Thanks Cadius.

The Valhalla is not part of ATF/USC race but neutral race I think.

builder680 · Post by **builder680** » Sun, 17. Apr 11, 21:06

That's right, it is. Forgot about that, but I noticed in tships it shows up in a group with no race. So encyclopedia has no place to list it. Gotcha.
