Well, If I knew how to I would. I hate how the dagger sucks. It looks best of any ship thoughh . I'll see what I can do.

yes, thats the thing the dagger is missing, it is probably the coolest looking ship in the game

There's a couple of ways to do this. The easiest is to simply allow another weapon slot to use the torpedo launcher. Another option is to replace a running light with a torpedo. The running lights are on stationary hardpoints, though, so I don't know how well that would work. I believe this is explained elsewhere.

The difficult method is to add another hardpoint to the ship, using one of the tutorials on the tutorial board. If you'd like to try this yourself, I'm sure it can't be too difficult. I'd do it myself, but I'm too busy until Tuesday.

The dagger ID is 237013, currently I have created 2 extra gun hardpoints, a torpedo hard point, increased nano + shield to 50 each, the ships hold is 250. I have completed the mod for the dagger now, its now got two extra gun points, under the wings and further into the cockpit, looks quite well....the problem is I have inserted a hardpoint for a torpedo. When you go to the equipment screen it shows 2 torpedo hard points, when you fill the hard point, the one torpedo fills both slots, but only one is on ship.... errrmmm help....

cool

Post Sat Apr 19, 2003 3:46 am

Thanks all. Like I said I have tried and failed. I am getting bored with the Sabre

Post Sat Apr 19, 2003 4:53 am

So you turn the Dagger INTO the Sabre? I'm sorry, but that's a bit... contradictory.

Post Sat Apr 19, 2003 6:59 pm

No I do not want to turn it into a Sabre, I just want a Torp launcher thats all, Besides the Dagger is smaller

Post Sat Apr 19, 2003 7:19 pm

and the dagger is a big ship what about it i had a ship that had only 1 gun and it wat bigger than plannet manhattan

i am only atacking the people who want to kill me but what if they kill me first

Talmor "No I do not want to turn it into a Sabre, I just want a Torp launcher thats all"

Opps....

Ok, here we have the new and improved spec for the dagger elite class....
35 hull repair / 65 shield repair due to fact shield are the same, the hull has been re-enforced almost three times the original spec, cargo space 75, torpedo launcer and 2 new weapon points, weapons under wing more towards cockpit / torpedo under sip on full 360 axis. All turrets and weaponsare now level 10 but because of that it will only take 4 / 5 shots before battery dead. Optimal 7/8 powered weapons. The engines have been increased, Its a tough ship can take on 5 / 6 good crafts, but unlike sabre or titan where i normally win its speed helps in a fast getaway. Full speed 150 with thruster 266, so will outrun most things. I am currently writing a new ID. Also where do you want to buy this ship, i will send you all file you need to make it work.

Oh, and have I gone too far.....
