New Idea...but need some help....

Hi all....
I'm thinking of adding a new faction...called Nanoites......you can guess what kind of faction it is....small unlawfuls.....

Anyway...I'm having trouble trying to create my own ships for this group....i'm kinda slow at this, so sorry if I sound repetitive...i've created the most of the hard points for the basic stuff (weapons, turrets, torpedos, shields, hp, CMs, Mines) but i'm not sure about the rest like the pilot and wing, etc....

do i really need the others or can i just create the ship without those hardpoints..
also...if i'm creating these hardpoints do i just name them:
Hp/Revolute/Hp<TypeOfHardpoint><NumberOfHardpointOfThisType>
or
Hp/Revolute/Hp<TypeOfHardpoints><NumberOfHardpointOfAllHardpoints>
I was kinda confused about that..

OH..and one last one....can anyone direct me to a link on how to create a mat file?

If anyone can help me...i can give you a beta of a Mod that i've been working on....its basically a compilation of the helios mod, BSEMod (added a war in the Helios system), the star wars ships, the nomad battleship and fighter, the nearly invulnerable shields (just put this in so i can evaluate each of the wars without being shot down), a super nomad torpedo launcher, and gundam missiles.....but i remind you...its only a beta as i'm still trying to get a non-crashing war to work in the helios system....

thx in advance

How long have you been waiting for a reply ? If you dont get one there is a tutorial on hardpoints and I found that type of information in some of the other posts. I dont know how many days back you looked but when I set it to 100 days back it seams to bring up alot of information thats been posted already and alot of the people that have this knowledge dont want have to post it again so I had to dig around in all the forms to get the information I was looking for. I hope this helps you out in your search for knowledge I know how hard it can be.
