SP Starting Ship Help

I whant to know how to change what ship you start off with in SP. Saber rather than starlifter. and haow to load it out. I tried looking for a mod to do this but couldn't find any. another solution whould be to change the lvl you start out at.
Please Help Thanks.

For SP you need to mod \DATA\Missions\M01A\m01a.ini. The line is:

Act_SetShipAndLoadout = ge_fighter, msn_playerloadout

Which can be found about 1/3 of the way down the file. The first part is the ship by nickname so the Sabre its bw_elite2. The second part is the ship package which must match the ship. The loadouts are found in \DATA\SHIPS\loadouts.ini where you can find one for the Sabre or modify msn_playerloadout to be what you want. A good one is fc_ou_bw_elite2_loadout01 so the line in m01a.ini would be:

Act_SetShipAndLoadout = bw_elite2, fc_ou_bw_elite2_loadout01

Note, the cutscenes with King were all done with the Starflier and those can't be changed (just movies). Also, this is a way to get and fly Juni's ship by setting

Act_SetShipAndLoadout = li_elite2, MSN13_Juni

Have fun!

.sig/ I am a giant amoung the ants, but lo, they have brought me down!
