I'm glad you lowered the bounty I was getting 20k per m5 I blew up and imo that way to much hehe

What does the yellow $ sign next to ships/stations/laser tower mean?

I know I'm new to the mod so I hope you dont mind me blowing up your forum with all these questions!

The floating lights is a bug with flak weapons. It seems particularly bad with the vanilla SSC bullet model. In 1.19, im switching it to use the vanilla flak model which seems to reduce this issue.

The yellow $ means there is a bounty offered for killing that ship.

MAML bullets too need replacement please, maybe revert back to early CMOD bullet graphics will be better ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wkgfWBzXLUA ), I don't know how you can stand seeing blue meatballs flying through space around your capital ship

also the firing/hitbox problem, as well as no terran NPC ships are using them... (for this last matter, terran NPC don't use/have Fusion BC too)

The unfocused jumpdrive has been mentioned a few times and seems like something people want to have and yet from what I have seen from it so far it is completely useless, I missing something here?

only-one-jack@hotmail.com

shipyards that only sell a terran missile which seems to be taged as a station all across argon space

argon shipyards in boron space selling boron ships think ive seen them else where as well

reasearch stations where u buy advanced ships were spawned as invaild and later deleated

ok well seems your 1.18B patch as sorted it at least everything i checked so far guess that means the 4 hrs i spent building up from the lame boring boron start was a waist. .. suxors

If you are seeing all that something is very wrong with your installation.

I think you have a mod conflict.

I've been out of the loop for about a month here and upgrading to 1.18. My question is do you still need the RRF 1.1 script fix or has that been corrected by egosoft?

TestingTesting · Post by **TestingTesting** » Sat, 10. Mar 12, 15:15

i am trying to import a ship in XRM into Stock AP 2.0,

but all my attempts have lead to the ship (Nemesis Sentinel) being invisible, i have tried hard.

Graphic files, TShips.
i think there are more files somewhere the ship needs, but Package Creator has only isolated 5 files that is says i need, obviously there are more, but i don't know which ones.

So, i thought i would add the 1st part of XRM that contains only mainly ship data, but don't include part 2 (which is all the modified data, scripts, Tships, components, ware stuff that kind of thing) then the stuff in part 1 won't actually be loaded with out being told too..... is that right?

if so then i can just copy across the ships i want from XRM TShips.pck to AP CAT 03 (new cat) and then load up game.

does any of this make sense? (trying to get this too work PManager is not working importing ships to AP so manual method only

i'm just winging it, but i guess if ship is invisible then there is more graphic files that are needed (something like from the effects or DDS folders)

I dont know what to tell you about your invisible ship issue but I can say that the XRM part 1 and 2 work together and need to be together. The only reason they are split into two parts is to simplify updating. That way we dont have to download a gigantic file every time Paul makes a minor change. Im pretty sure your issue is a conflict with part 1 anyhow.

Yes you need the fix - Egosoft broke the RRF scripts with AP v2.0 and have not released a fix yet. The fix is not to fix the RRF 1.1, but rather revert the RRF v2.0 scripts (which dont work at all) back to v1.1.

Jumee · Post by **Jumee** » Sat, 10. Mar 12, 16:18

have people who used the fix experienced ships loosing commands OOS? (Cycrow suggested that this bug will come back with the fix)?

At the moment to substitute for RRF, I've installed MBRR, and it seems to do a decent job (the only ships that have bounties above 1-2 million are either in Xenon sectors or are in xenon bordering and get taken down eventually), so if the command loosing bug is there you can avoid having it by just getting some other script to do what RRF is supposed to (it will be less effective though)

you misunderstood, never mind.....

for the record XRM works fine, no problem at all, my intention was to rip out the Nemesis sentinel ship from XRM to play in Canon AP (without using XRM)

to put it another way, i want the Nemesis sentinel from XRM to play in normal AP.

Seric · Post by **Seric** » Sat, 10. Mar 12, 17:08

I just copied the files into my TC/addons folder (for an AP install), can't find the option to map the AL plugin to a key. I can find phanon corp files in the script editor though (so it should be installed correctly).

Any suggestions?

Ahh thats much clearer.

I have never messed with ships in the way you describe so I cant really help you.

you dont map it to a key... altho... would be cool if you could, you go into your artificial life settings in your game options whilst in game, and itll be listed there

TestingTesting · Post by **TestingTesting** » Sat, 10. Mar 12, 17:51

that's ok, i think i'm getting there, what i have done is deleted everything from the CAT file in part 1 which looks like it doesn't connect to the Nemesis Sentinel in anyway. the ship is working and it's in,

now of course is working out what else i can delete from the CAT file without breaking the Nemesis Sentinel.

i wish there was a way of finding out all the files needed to make a ship work?

anyway 80% of the CAT file in part 1 is deleted, now the hard part...... what else can go without breaking the ship LOL.

joelR · Post by **joelR** » Sat, 10. Mar 12, 18:11

You could start by looking at what files comprise an xsp ship file. That would give you some clue as to what files make a ship.

It would be a good idea to start a new thread with your question though. This thread could get cluttered up with non XRM related questions. Im curious what you discover though.
