[SCRIPT] Rename ships with Expression 3.4.1 (RSwE) X3:TC/AP Compatible [11/01/2015]

[solarahawk]

I have emailed with caishow2 a tiny bit previously, and he is asking for an alternate download location for various plugins. Most file sharing locations are being blocked by the Chinese Great Firewall. Turns out Nexusmods is accessible from China, for what it's worth.

Thank you, solarahawk.
You're the most passionate foreign friend I've ever seen.

Hey Guys,
never thought about China's IP-Ban politics, so you're telling me neither
mediafire.com nor box.com are accessible from china?

Thats bad but I could easily upload my files to a China-access-able host,
it just needs to have some features,

1. no need to log in/sign in for downloading files
less hassle for users
2. no expiration date for files
RSwE is in a state where updates won't happen sooner than a few months apart,
so if the files expire each 30 days, it just don't cut it
3. free of charge
RSwE is a hobby project of mine so i like to keep it free

so if you could provide me with a host or even a list of host, that are access-able
and possibly feature my requests, I would upload RSwE there.

The easiest solution would be, if Google Drive is access-able from China, since
I already got a Backup of RSwE uploaded there, but honestly I doubt that .

Edit: Nexusmods is currently in maintenance so I will check it out later

[caishow2]

Google has moved away from China.
So can't access
China can visit this station (nexusmods.com)

[Medevel]

Yeah guessed so, would have made it much easier,
but I looked into the Nexusmods site, and their page editor doesn't like me,
so I only added some basic info's and uploaded the current file.
This does not include the LU compatibility patch I am currently working on.
That will come as soon I am finished.

Here are two of the most famous SkyDrive
(global) http://www.rayfile.com
(China) http://pan.baidu.com
The two kinds of access can be downloaded in the world

@caishow2
thanks for the links to the hosts, i couldn't connect to rayfile.com,
don't ask me why but baidu.com worked for me.
I can't read chinese so I hope everything works,
if you could be so kind and check these links and report back,
if they are access-able from china, that would be great.

Well, the connection is right.
Can download

did it trigger modified? cause it is only a "graphical" change

[X2-Illuminatus]

All third-party scripts (except those from the bonus package) cause a *modified* or rather require a modified game to be run. No matter how big or small their changes are.

[SubSeven2003]

so i installed this and it causes no modify to my game. i can still earn steam achivements and the save status is not **modified**


(aber du kannst mir gern erklären warum es bei diesem mod nicht so ist )

[X2-Illuminatus]

As I explained above, a game needs to be set to *modified* before unsigned scripts are loaded. Some scripts do that automatically by adding an init script, for others you have to activate the Script Editor and reinit the script cache or save/load the game once. Alternatively, if you install a script using the Plugin Manager, then you turn on *modified* mode in the PM in order for the game to be set to *modified* and for the scripts to be loaded.

So what you most-likely did now was just adding the scripts and t files to their respective folders in your X3TC installation directory (or its "addon" folder, in case you're playing X3AP). However, unless you turn the game to *modified* (e.g. by activating the script editor as mentioned above), you will not be able to use the script's features. Which should be clearly indicated by not seeing the articifial life section, neither having a custom command section in your ship's command console nor having the hotkeys added in the controls -> interface section.

I'm not sure what you're trying to prove here!? What I described is common knowledge since X2: The Threat.
