Plz help

Post by Trigger Happy Chappy »

Hey guys

I was wondering could you help me I have been trying to figure out what tools to use to do what and where different information about the game is kept :gruebel:

I have read the tutorials but there is a lot of stuff that I still do not get like:
1.) What is all these files that I got when I decompressed the PCK files? what relevence do they have to the game?
2.) I also have an XML editor (Peter's XML Editor) but I have no idea what I use it for or how to use it.
3.) I am trying to put another subcategorie into the trade menu but I'm not sure which tools to use to do this and where to put the file, once I have done this.

I know how to get to the script editor in-game (type "Thereshallbewings")
so I have been trying that but no luck so far :headbang:

Plz can you help me I know I sound stupid, but I have modded games before but this one goes right over my head. I feel like I'm in a windtunnel :shock:

Have you downloaded the X2tools ? If not, they are in the download section.

The pck files you mention, would Tships be one ?
This is a very good place to start modding the game as this file contains the info for most aspects of the ships and info on it can be found in the documents with the X2tools.

Storm_Front has make an excellent database about what the different T... files contain. :thumb_up:
A quick forum search should help here.


I have not used these files to make game killing ships though.
I have changed the roll of the Boron M6 to make it a long distance Ore/Silicone carrier which has a massively increased cargo hold. The price seems a bit fairer now. Also the price of the Osprey is now just over 20Mil and have given it the engine glows and trails of the Centaur. :)

At the moment I am having extreme headaches trying to place another ship in the game. Oh well, it all takes time.
:D
