SuBXeRo, I am using a custom DLL and ResHacker, as per the tutorial mentioned.
I have altered the ini's so that they point to the new IDS but it is still getting a reference for the old one from somewhere (the weapon in question is a torpedo launcher based on the Sunslayer). When I run FL, I find that the weapon shows the new name but still uses the Sunslayer info. Yes, I changed both the IDS and IDS Info lines to the new entries.

Thanks again

be sure that the munitions you are changing are the new ones not the old ones.

Are you feeling lonely or just plain horny then Click Here!!! and you'll have lots of fun...

I dont know if this is true but it appears to me that the game looks for weapon ids info in the EquipResorces.dll (dont quote me on that)
try using a programe called FLEd-ids,

then just punch in the number 266756 into the ids_info box at the top of the interface and click the Get ids_info button it should come up blank in the text area.
then add the following into the text area.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-16"?><RDL><PUSH/><TRA data="1" mask="1" def="-2"/><JUST loc="center"/><TEXT>YOUR WEAPON NAME HERE</TEXT><PARA/><TRA data="0" mask="1" def="-1"/><JUST loc="left"/><TEXT> </TEXT><PARA/><TEXT>YOUR WEAPON INFO HERE.</TEXT><PARA/><POP/></RDL>

once you have done that click the save ids_info button and your done hopfully that will fix it...

The days of light are fading, as the sullen screams of humanities dieing dreams fade into obscurity.

I would highly advise using FLEd-ids. Its so much easier.

def use fleids trust me i have been modding for a while and didnt start modding ids cards until i used fleids. it will take u like a night to learn it just look at weps already there and copy the info into ur new card trust me ull know what im talking about once u start looking at it all

Sorry to make your posts useless guys, but I am using Fled-IDS
When I type in the IDS Info number Fled-ids calculated for me, I get the right data showing up. I don't have a clue why it's not working!

thanks once more,

From what Ive read if the name and info comes up corrently thats fine for weapons the actual stats come from the INI itself where as the ships all come from the .dll

The main problem could be this line

projectile_archetype =

which is found in the weapon_equip.ini

this line links the [Munition" and [Gun" blocks so make sure they are corresponding. Your "projectile_archetype = " is probably linking the stats to the old weapon.

Ok, heres whats goin' on
The stats are showing up fine, the weapon works, the IDS name works, its just the IDS info.
I'm currently using the same IDS info for munition and weapon. It works fine for the munition but the weapon shows the data of the T-69 Sunslayer

thanks again
