I'm not able to see in my cristal ball which of Gazz' scripts you mean. I'm afraid you will have to tell first...

General tips:

- When two scripts change the same thing, it is usually best to use only one at a time.

- Most scripts are easily reversible, so it is (usually) easy to just try it.

In this case, you should probably uninstall Gazz's Numeric Race Ranks before installing Ranks for Xenon, Kha'ak, etc.

thank you very much Dr B, much appreciated

The mod "Numeric Race Rank Titles" is integrated in the mod "Ranks for Xenon, Kha'ak, Pirates and Yaki". Just checked the t files of both mods. Only one insignificant change between the friendlies ranks. (Ranks of NRRT begins at -4, RfXKPaY at -5)
So if you want to have the foe ranks too, only use Ranks for Xenon, Kha'ak, Pirates and Yaki.

cheers

ok another noob question, i'll try to be precise this time

you say uninstall gazz's script first, but it's a RAR not SPK which means i can't use the Plugin Manager AFAIK

so to uninstall i have to find the files that were inside the NumericRRT RAR and delete them, then copy over the files from RanksfXKPaY RAR and i'm done?

"Install Archive" with the Plugin Manager.

Then uninstall.

Is this mod (the yaki & pirate version) available anywhere else? The link seems to be unavailable right now.

Thanks!

Both links work ok.

Well rats! I'm getting the message 'Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to samuels.homepage.t-online.de'. I'm able to connect to http://www.t-online.de/ but not the link.

Actually, I can see this http://samuelshp.sa.funpic.de/x3tc/rank ... kpyeng.jpg just fine. Weird.

Try to click on the link with right mouse button and set "save as"
If then will not work I will give you new link.

DrBullwinkle · Post by **DrBullwinkle** » Thu, 4. Apr 13, 02:27

Try a different browser.

The links also work fine for me (Firefox).

Thanks all - It seems to work (very slowly) with IE 10.

I just noticed the corp ranks were using xenon titles.
Editing director\RankingXKPY.xml and t\7004-L044.xml to remove every block of code related to xenons reverted the corp ranks to their base name but I still have xenon ranks on screen and they use corp titles (short story: I now have the inverse issue).
Any idea?

The script works fine with the vanilla game. Probably you are trying to use it with a mod that also changes page 900. Find the mod's page 900 and you should be able to edit it as you like. The mod may change page 900 in 0001-L0xx.xml, or it may have its own file (as this script does).

(Note that "page 900" may have a prefix in your games files which signifies the lowest version of TC or AP with which the page will work. For example, the first occurrence of page 900 in the vanilla 0001 file is page id="350900".

I just searched for 900" until I found a page that ended in 900 and had no significant digits in front of it. So ignore page 1900, for example.)

Huillam · Post by **Huillam** » Fri, 31. May 13, 04:27

Except for 350900 (used by this script) MarCon Ind Main Menu and Cyrcrow Cheat Package both use this id: the first keep it blank, le second use "<t id="900">\033RCheat\033X: %s</t>". Disabling them did not resolve the issue. I imagine they're not in fault.
Apart from that 0001-L044.xml seems to be missing.
