You can have no civs in *any* mod. You just have to edit the Jobs file within that mod.

Get doubleshadow's editor, open up jobs.txt, and delete lines:

6101
6102
6103
6104

Four lines, whole process takes 20 seconds from start to finish. After about a half an hour in-game, the civs/taxis should be gone.

Okay what about the other types like Media service, cleaning service, flight school etc - are these just more civ type ships or do they serve a usefull purpose in game - i.e. good pirating targets? I'd like to delete em.

The taxis/civ lines add a huge number of ships. The media service, tank cleaners, funeral directors (lol), etc, aren't as prominent. Deleting them won't have nearly the affect of the 4 civ/taxi lines.

Just make a copy of the original and edit the copy. That way if you delete the wrong thing (some things are plot related), you can restore it. At one point, I deleted everything that wasn't military.

i.e.
6101;Taxidienst; ....

6103;Taxidienst; ....
6104;Zivilschiff; ....

Thanks.

This can still works with 2.02 update?

Yes, those lines are what control the number of Civi's in the game.

It's just that the 2.0 Jobs.txt and the 1.4.03 version are not compatible.

It was the first thing I did after reinstalling X3/2.0.

I took out civies/etc, added M6s to police patrols, M6s to pirates, along with every other M3/4/5 of all races to pirates. Things are interesting now.

It's rather fun seeing a Yaki Mamba, and an Argon Police Centaur, and a Pirate Nemesis, among others.

So could someone post the updated mod for 2.0.02 ?
Please

Jakesnake5 · Post by **Jakesnake5** » Wed, 20. Dec 06, 22:56

My Goner Traders mod has a No Civi version for 2.0.x

Or just get the mods separately from my sig.

Can someone please tell me where to find and how to edit the jobs.txt file?

I'm using the Extended Mod, and I want to get rid of civilians.

I've installed Doubleshadow's editor, but have no idea what to do next...

Please?

Jakesnake5 · Post by **Jakesnake5** » Tue, 4. Dec 07, 15:08

Run X3 Editor

If asked, tell it where your X3 install is.

Select TXT Editor

Click 'Open'

Navigate your way to your X3 install's 'mods' directory

Select the Extended mod .cat file

Locate the jobs.txt file and open it

Scroll down to entries starting with 6101.

Right click, select delete on:

6101
6102
6103
6104

Save file back to the mod, confirm replace.

If you already have an active game with civi's, they will show up with blank names, and eventually jump and die from systems as you pass through them.

BUMP

i dont know if i'm being completely stupid, but i cant seem to find the jobs.txt file in any of the .Cat files??

i'm running the lastest (i think? - its atleast 2.5 anyway!) x3 vanilla
only running the cockpit mod (that randomly turns off!)

but i still cant find the jobs.txt
i've got 11.Cat files, and 1 in the mod folder for the cockpit mod, none of them have the file in

but when i installed XTM, i found it, edited, but i never saw if it worked cos XTM kept crashing my game, so i deleted it again.
when i found it in the XTM mod it was burried away in a "types" folder in 11.cat

also, how did you do that? i'm bored of killing easy ships, i want a pirate centuar or something to fight (and borrow!)

Sorry for reviving an old thread, but I really need some help.My problem: i modify the jobs.Pck file(remove taxis for example) and when i save it and load a game ALL the ships are gone(new game) or blank(load savegame)..I think this happens because by replacing jobs.Pck i move it to the bottom of the list, but i dont know how to sort files alphabetically inside .Cat file..Can anyone help?
