Hull multiplier mod query?

[Jellyfish_tracks]

Hi. o/

Are there any mods that increase the hull points of ships for vanilla X3:AP? Similar to the "Hull Multiplication Packs" for XRM, or the "Hull Multiplier mod" for XTC.

I've never modded before, but if its relatively easy, i can give it a go myself. Is there any resources on how to mod?

You need the X3 Editor 2 to edit and extract the relevant "TShips". You can download the Editor here.

In this thread you find a basic explanation of how to setup the Editor and do the relevant changes. Mentioned here is gun compatibility. What you want to change is the "Hull strength" value which you can find in the Performance tab of the Editor. You will have to change this value ship by ship. Alternatively, if you have extracted the Tships file to the mentioned addon/types folder, there's Litcube's Excel TShip Editor which makes mass editing ships easier. (A working download link can be found here.) Mind you, I haven't used Litcube's tool in a while, so I don't know whether it works under current excel versions.
