Curious question about X3 Editor

[J.I.Gorkij]

Hi,

I encountered strange thing with X3 Editor - I am trying to edit TShips.pck (for Albion Prelude), want to add minor adjustments.

In my addon directory, highest cat are 06 and 07. 07 doesn't contain TShips, so I am working with 06.cat.

When i try "Open from VFS" in editor, from directory location in header I see I am opening 06.cat. However, values are different than values I uploaded to same cat file through CAT manager. When i open cat directly, values are same as i uploaded.

Shouldn't "Open from VFS" open most recent pck? I mean pck from highest cat? Am I doing something wrong?

I hope this is right forum for that question...

No mods? X3AP is supposed to go as high as 05, IIRC.
Open From VFS is indeed the latest pack.

Vanilla X3AP has 4 catalogs.

Also make sure that the X3 Editor is set up to look into the correct directory, in case you have more than one installation.

Yeah, I made sure ten times i am in right directory with editor ( game directory/addon/ ), yet mentioned thing is still hapenning

01-05.cat are AP, 06.cat is XTC and 07.cat is XTC Dock computer (S size). I am editing XTC cat, 06.cat.

Looks like game cannot forget about pre-edited file, even though it shouldn't exists (because game behaves same as editor, ignoring my changes).
