[MOD] [TC/AP] X3 Rebalance Mod (XRM) - Total conversion - v1.30d (02.12.13)

[Grimshad]

Good news. I deleted the jobs.txt and wingjobs.txt from XRM, then I put the jobs.txt from the No Civs mod in its place. Started a new game and activated IR and no crash!

Bad news. While the Civs from AP are not in the game, all the Civs from XRM are still in the game and that's annoying

I spoke too soon. Game crashed.

haha... well I actually did get everything working the first time, the crash was my fault

So what I have now:
XRM working perfectly with IR and PG.
No Civilian ships except for the TL stuff u can board (like the casino).
starting defensive sector forces back to AP default.
No more constant random pointless raids in sectors (IR will make forces come instead, and they will be prepared for hostile takeover).
A lot less lag for some reason ( XRM FPS dropped on and off before).


Possible bad stuff:
I don't think the XRM corporations will be out and about anymore (although I could easily add them.. actually I think I will)
I don't think the new ships will be roaming around anywhere.

Success imo

so nobody here use capital ships ecells regenerator script?

I might try fixing mine when I purchase my Tupekei. My gut tells me that it has something to do with the setup script. It's probably the command slot its trying to use or something.

do you see the ware? or it's completely missing? since I've never used it before, how is it if it's working? what am I supposed to see and use?

I know for a fact that it doesn't work in X3:AP.

But, if it was working you should see an ECell Generator Ware for sale in all EQ and Military Bases. Upon purchasing it you will have a new command in the ships orders that allow you to set the energy cell cap and whether or not the e-cell generator is on or not. Then during idle intervals, I think it goes on Shields being undamaged, the script creates a number of ecells in the ships hold every so often.

Mizuchi how long have you been here spying on us tonight?....I figured Paul was sleeping so we could totally screw up his thread while he was in la-la land. Now we have to watch it...

Well, I'm on Tokyo time, so... nine hours ahead of Paul. :3

But, to counter that, I'm on an Android phone nine times out of ten, which is why Seraph has pretty much replaced me in the long-post department.

Good news. I deleted the jobs.txt and wingjobs.txt from XRM, then I put the jobs.txt from the No Civs mod in its place.

XRM Jobs is around 90% built from the ground up, with the last 10% being heavily modified. You really shouldn't run XRM without jobs, as you're going to cripple a lot of the additional stuff that depends on it (such as the new patrol scripts and weapon loadout configurations.)

If you send me a PM with your issue, I'll see if I can briefly guide you through what to tweak.

The "Android Phone" caveat from above applies, though.

(Although it might be too late now.)

If that works you are a jukebox hero. I'll keep you posted!

It should do. That fix has worked for a bunch of other people who had/have that specific problem - myself included.

[morikaane]

Random question... does the Terran Tepukei auto-repair docked ships? (I've forgotten whether it does this or not).

[PRiME2007]

You can get ships and other mods working in AP together, it just requires a bit of brains and investigation. If you have neither then you will need to wait for a big fix for the Plugin Manager.

I ahve the e-cell generator in the eq docks as normal. i have not yet tried it but it is there.

Really...? I tried it in X3AP Vanilla a while back and it wasn't working...

Works perfectly fine in AP for me...

Must've fluffed it up somehow... thanks. I'll try it in a bit.

Just reiterate about jobs - without the xrm jobs file, ships will not use CWP to allocate their weapons. Since I have utilised weapon subtypes that don't automatically spawn, you'll find many jobs will spawn with no weapons. Also, you'll get a borked terran economy as vanilla jobs does not shift enough water.





Good morning btw!

[morikaane]

Mornin'

I reckon you're going to hit 500 today Paul... how does that make you feel?

M.

[dougeye]

Stressed! i bet lol

would adjusting the global storage of npc docks have any dodgy effects on xrm jobs etc?

I wouldn't have thought so.

Haha... you know what I meant.

i do, if you cant get it to work you need to download cycros salvage claim software and install that onto the ship you want to run it on. then the command should appear properly.

[Methexis]

Just a thought...

I think it would be better if there were 2 different threads for the two XRMs, both with updated instructions, ship and weapon stats and advices for more additional frequently used scripts.

That would solve many problems for the many I think users that don't necessarily participate in posting their questions. It is getting too difficult to find your answer in a 500 posts thread. My opinion is also that with better support more players will want to try this excellent mod. It is already frustrating to add the base XRM mod and the add-ons you want to accompany it ,with their individual settings etc. More technical support.... more clients

But that is just my opinion.... I'm already enjoying it

What the...? That's a bit odd.

[Grimshad]

Well, hopefully removing 50% of the jobs in XRM doesn't break anything later.

Till then I am completely happy running XRM and IR together <3

Thanks for this great mod guys.
