Not sure what you are saying here
Does it mount lvl 10 guns and you are trying to add two extra hardpoints?
To make two hardpoints, you need to edit the right CMP file with UTF editor tool
Once you have successfully added the gunpoints (revolute) with axis, max, min, orientation and position (make sure they are spelt correctly and have values) you will then need to add them to the shiparch.ini file (in your ships part obviously)
See below for an example of putting the two extra hardpoints in for an eagle (example)
This is the original - 6 points - all six to class 9, with only 4 taking class 10
hp_type = hp_gun_special_10, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04
hp_type = hp_gun_special_9, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05, HpWeapon06
hp_type = hp_gun_special_8, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05, HpWeapon06
hp_type = hp_gun_special_7, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05, HpWeapon06
hp_type = hp_gun_special_6, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05, HpWeapon06
hp_type = hp_gun_special_5, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05, HpWeapon06
hp_type = hp_gun_special_4, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05, HpWeapon06
hp_type = hp_gun_special_3, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05, HpWeapon06
hp_type = hp_gun_special_2, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05, HpWeapon06
hp_type = hp_gun_special_1, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05, HpWeapon06

If you have moddified the CMP file for your ship and therefore have HpWeapon07 and HpWeapon08 mounts it should look like below to make them all take them

hp_type = hp_gun_special_10, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05, HpWeapon06, HpWeapon07, HpWeapon08
hp_type = hp_gun_special_9, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05, HpWeapon06, HpWeapon07, HpWeapon08
hp_type = hp_gun_special_8, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05, HpWeapon06, HpWeapon07, HpWeapon08
hp_type = hp_gun_special_7, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05, HpWeapon06, HpWeapon07, HpWeapon08
hp_type = hp_gun_special_6, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05, HpWeapon06, HpWeapon07, HpWeapon08
hp_type = hp_gun_special_5, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05, HpWeapon06, HpWeapon07, HpWeapon08
hp_type = hp_gun_special_4, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05, HpWeapon06, HpWeapon07, HpWeapon08
hp_type = hp_gun_special_3, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05, HpWeapon06, HpWeapon07, HpWeapon08
hp_type = hp_gun_special_2, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05, HpWeapon06, HpWeapon07, HpWeapon08
hp_type = hp_gun_special_1, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05, HpWeapon06, HpWeapon07, HpWeapon08

If it looks like that in the shiparch.ini for your ship (declared the two extra mounts) AND you have saved it correctly (save as shiparch.ini - not just click on save), AND you have correctly added the weaponmounts to the CMP and saved it as well - then you have done something really wrong (like moddified the wrong file!)
Chips - post what you have for better guidance, and also what your CMP file addition was etc!! - that way i or someone else can lead you through it step by step!!

this is whats in my Shiparch ini everything works fine but i cannot use weapons with classes 1-9 (yeah i use the swordfish ship)

*edit*
another question how can i change the turbine(engine) like to glow and look like Rheinland's

(sorry for my bad english)

Edited by - LordEule on 18-08-2003 20:12:23

Well weapon mounts look fine - curious as to why there is a thruster on an engine mount and a countermeasure on a thruster mount - more to come on engine effects as i check it out (never looked at that before!)
Chips
- so none of the mounts can take class 1-9 at all???? and it only had three mounts before you added the extra two then?

Okay - in your data folder, and equipment folder you should see a file saying engine_equip.ini
This is the rhienland elite entry (Valk)

The three marked lines are the effects that you are looking for.....so you can either substitute these into the file for the engine you have mounted ...or...
even easier - sub the nickname of the engine above into the correct ship part in the goods.ini - see below for example
[Good
nickname = bhe2_package
category = ship
hull = bhe2_hull
addon = ge_bhe2_engine_01, internal, 1 <--- engine type mounted
addon = bh_elite2_power01, internal, 1
addon = ge_s_scanner_01, internal, 1
addon = ge_s_tractor_01, internal, 1
addon = shield01_mark07_hf, HpShield01, 1
addon = LargeWhiteSpecial, HpHeadlight, 1
addon = SlowSmallBlue, HpRunningLight01, 1
addon = SlowSmallBlue, HpRunningLight02, 1
addon = SlowSmallBlue, HpRunningLight03, 1
addon = SlowSmallBlue, HpRunningLight04, 1
addon = SlowSmallBlue, HpRunningLight05, 1
addon = SlowSmallBlue, HpRunningLight06, 1
addon = SlowSmallBlue, HpRunningLight07, 1
addon = SlowSmallBlue, HpRunningLight08, 1

It would become (missed out the rest of it though)
[Good
nickname = bhe2_package
category = ship
hull = bhe2_hull
addon = ge_re_engine_01, internal, 1
addon = bh_elite2_power01, internal, 1
addon = ge_s_scanner_01, internal, 1
This would give you a rhienland engine on your ship instead (example shown here was the hammerhead)
Chips
*edit* for the second method to work you would need to buy your ship again i THINK - not sure - i aint tested this stuff out- but it should be good...

Edited by - chips on 18-08-2003 20:34:19

Thx Engine works and looks only weapons leavin'

the changes in the cmp are correct i think (the hardpoint works )

but why only CLASS 10 (me going to run a bit mad)

You should use updated swordfish, I fixed the weapon problem.

And as for thruster on counter measure droper and droper on thruster is because I made a mistake and confused those 2, but ship works fine so who cares

**EDIT** I am working on another update, this one will have missiles and all original equipment from series, I will also use original red color that was used in series. And if I learn how to do uvw mapping in gmax I will add skin too.

its the updated but it doesnt work how it has to do
or do i have to buy the ship again to have it work

besides the ship is really cool

and i would help if i know how to skin in FL. Btw. whats the engine of FL ?(Quake- and GeoMod-Engine)

yes, you probably do. I just downloaded updated version just to check it, and it works fine. So you probably shuuld rebuy the ship

Ok ill try to rebuy it and post if it works or not

It doesn't work f*** can anyone help please

btw. which wepon do you use to imitate the MG's ive modified the Uziel (hope its the same in english ,Lv5 Liberty Rogues Laser)

Thats weird...it worked when I downloaded updated version, did you delete all save games, this could be the problem, did you uninstal old version first. I realy dont know what could be the problem...

As for weapons here are screens

Main Cannon (used custom made effect)

Machine Guns (used ku_capgun_01_proj for const_effect)

Yeah - delete all old saved games for that file.......be careful as FLMM v1.2 swaps em in and out when you turn mod on/off (save games that is). Then delete your mod and its original zip file of it if you dl'd it. Then re-download it and try it then..........if not - well teh shiparch.ini file for it looks fine....can't see anything wrong with it.
And it can't be a CMP prob as you can mount class 10's on there - which means either a) The boogeyman is fiddlin with you
or b) in need of glasses cos i missed a bum entry!
Dunno which......or is that witch? lol
Chips

Yeah i got it ,i got it

i dont know why i doesn't do anything else than looking into the shiparch ini and wordpad ask me to save i did it and it works

*edit*
how can i edit sounds? want to put the nomad laser sound to the uziel
(hope to find it myself )

Edited by - LordEule on 19-08-2003 04:48:18

Look here only if you dont find it yoursefl

Its

one_shot_sound =
Under munition of your weapon...change it to anything you like, for nomad laser it will be

one_shot_sound = fire_no1

I believe
