Adding M0 in Galaxy editors

[Slavo]

I would like to Know to put M0 in the External Galaxy editors?

[Chris Gi]

Are you sure, you've posted in the right forum? (X2 doesn't have any M0 class ships by default). And which External Editor are you using?

[Lord Dakier]

Khaak superweapon I guess he means

However my friend, the ship is broken and cant be used without creating a model of it but even then you won't get all the effects.

[Shadow dream]

true - stuff as the "planet-destroyer" won't work without hard hard and realy hard work too.
further the Kha'ak m0 isn't flyable - even if you steal it via script in the plot (there are several ships like that as AP Gunner)

if you want to see real M0 flying with all the stuff just wait (probably years ) for Pandora-mod

[size=24][/size]why so long for Pandora

[Lord Dakier]

Cause it's overhauling X2.

The Why do the External Galaxy editors Have the M0 in them if you Can't make them?

[Chris Gi]

Because you could make them! Those external editors list all available ships, no matter if they are actually working or not. With modding, you can make the ships work...

The in-game galaxy editor works similar, but it uses more accurate tests. But as long as the ship definition meets certain minimal requirements, the ship is listed as a possible ship. Consider the Xenon I: it's listed, you can choose it, but it's not a usuable ship...

[Lord Dakier]

There's not even a model for that isn't there?

Besides weren't that the so called super ship that haunts Xenon Sector 532 I think.

[Slavo]

Then How do you Script The Karhhk M0 Or the AP gunner

[Lord Dakier]

You can't *script* them into the game. Imagine them as a broken sword... you can't simply slap on some glue and all is done you need to restart from the beginning. So you would create a new ship based on their models. This is infact modding however.

[Slavo]

And how to you do that?

[Shadow dream]

actualy the whole models exitsts already. it is listened in the TShips and you can easily import in in gmax. there you add some turrets and lasers, dockingpoints etc ant replace it with another ship (there are some unused ships - you see that if there is no scene given)
I recomend doubleshadow's tools (google them)

Hey Shadow could this fix the Xenon J and it's undocking problem?

[Slavo]

I have Got the Seance Now how do I add stuff

[Chris Gi]

If you had followed the suggestions given in answer to your Were are the BOD Files in X2-thread, you should know - or at least you should know that your question should be more specific or informative...

I guess

fix the Xenon J and it's undocking problem?

Undocking problem in Xenon J has because in ship scene file is wrong docking part, fix the problem can simply change docking part in ship scene file.

[Lord Dakier]

I dont know how to move about scenes and all that

[Shadow dream]

Undocking problem in Xenon J has because in ship scene file is wrong docking part, fix the problem can simply change docking part in ship scene file.

hm, I never got an eye on that scene - but yeah, this dockingbay irritated me somehow

@LD: get a look at the scene-number in TShips -> open 04.cat (or the next lower if it isn't there), extract it (unpack) and open it wiith the standart text-editor. if you find that body replace the number with 77 (if I remember right)
repack it with path "cut" and done - should be savegame compatible
