couple of questions

Hey

1. My thruster burns straight up instead of behind my ship, I have tried remaking the hp and rotating it, no joy, any ideas?

2. I need to find a program called fl ed or fled, or something else I can edit inf ocards with. also how do I make the buttons you see when purchasing an item?

thanx in advance, Achilles.

For the FLIDS program go to the Editing Utilities forum. Bakedpotato has a goodies post there that has FLIDS and every other editing program you could possibly want.
As to the thruster problem, if its not how your Hp face is angled I've got no clue. If you go to the editing Tutorials forum Drizzt4.0 has a thread there for his FL Ship Creating Tutorial.
Good luck.

Edit: Oh yeah, the download area also has a tutorial on how to make icons, by Osprey I think.

Its the orientation of the hardpoint you have wrong, its facing the wrong way. Try copying the orientation of another hardpoint like an engine or a thruster etc, and using that instead....

thanx for the responses. I got the FLED thing from a german site, info cards are no problem, thanx for directing me to the icon tut, will try it in a while.

I did copy a hardpoint for that, I copied HpEngine01 and renamed it HpThruster01, very wierd, will try again though.

Another quick question, I want to create artillery ships, can I get the NPCs to use torpedos?
