you have to edit the model itself.

Or you could specify the light mounts as able to hold weapons in the shiparch.ini file, and take those lights out of the package you buy, therefore making in about two minutes a stack of weapon mounts

ok ill explain a few things:

Now in Shiparch.ini you can specify hardpoints. these are points on your ship that have guns, thrusters, cms, mines, torps, lights, and a few other other things.

You can change the level of of guns or turrets allowd on your ship. now ill take something for shiparch to show you an example. this is the gun section from my osiris mods, pertaining to the osiris. although its from that ship this is what it could look like for other ships.

hp_type = hp_gun_special_10, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05, HpWeapon06
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

hp_type = hp_gun_special_1 this tells you what level gun
HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, etc this tells you the hardpoints

the highest level you can go is 10. now what happens is you can specigy which gun to what level u want. now say u want hpweapon04 to be able to only hold level 2 weapons it would look like this

hp_type = hp_gun_special_2, HpWeapon04

you understand what im getting at now?

now if u look around there are other HP stypes such as ones for thrusters and so on.

the section above that really long one, that will make it so that all 6 weapon hardpoints on your ship will be able to hold all weapon classes. so u can use that as a reference.



now this is the easy stuff that i think you want to know. BUT if you want to add brand new hardpoints this is much more difficult than this.
