Where do you dig up the ship_archetypes that are used in saved game files? They are unusually long and not like normal ship IDs, such as: 2793834180. Anyone know where to get these if you want to mod the ship you have in a save?

That ID I posted above is copied exactly from Ioncross's editor...so...I'm still stuck :\

That number is not a ship ID, it's a CRC conversion of the ships archetype name (IE: li_fighter, ge_fighter2, etc)

Look in the shiparch.ini at the nicknames. The nicknames are what other files pull to when they refer to archetypes. You may need to type a few into a CRC tool to find the one you posted above. (I'm currently building a database that will include archetype/nickname to CRC as one of the data fields.)
