The ship.ini file, find the ship you want. This is just a sample -
HP_tractor_source=HpTractor_Source
shield_link=l_elite_shield01, HpMount, HpShield01, HpShield02, HpEngine01
hp_type = hp_gun_special_10, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05, HpWeapon06 ;this is how many you have
hp_type = hp_gun_special_9, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05, HpWeapon06 ;the first Item , 9 in this case, tells the level of gun alowed. 10 , means level 10 guns.
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_elite_shield_special_10, HpShield01, HpShield02
hp_type=hp_elite_shield_special_9, HpShield01
hp_type=hp_elite_shield_special_8, HpShield01
hp_type=hp_elite_shield_special_7, HpShield01

oh! thanks friend!!

Post Mon Jul 05, 2004 4:51 am

em.. But how can i find the ship i want? There now names like "Titan", "Sabre" or others!

Post Mon Jul 05, 2004 5:18 am

I made almost the same post a short while ago, try using the search botton, it can help u to answer these basic questions.

you can easily find ships with the nicknames.

usually 1st part is the faction abbrevation, then th class of ship.

li_elite is the defender for example (iberty and "elite" for a HF)

bw_elite2 is the sabre (bw for borderworld and "elite2" for a VHF)

co_fighter is the legionnaire (co for corsair and "figther" for a LF)

rh_freighter is the humpbck (rh for rheinland and "freighter" for, well, lol, a freighter)

almost all ship names are built up after this schema.

10 guns or level 10 gun ?
They are different

In Rebalance Mod, we see Mike put guns on the running lights and headlights

sl1m
The e-mail is on the way. just copy and paste to the file. A listing is included to which file. When you open the Shiparch file, use the edit button to find the name bw_elite2. Hilight it then paste the new one on it. The only difference is 2 guns, #5 and #6 currently are only level 9, this will make them all level 10 Hope this helps, and Welcome to TLR.

If you go into the "please read ...." sticky u can find a data base wihth alll li blaqh blah names ... u can just mount guns over each other ... In Goods.ini

Unoftunatly only works if your buying the ship or you cud edit ur save and do it the same way .... Adding the line in goods.ini for the ship

addon = <weapon>, HpWeapon01 [- meaning slot number , 1

Reapeating this line exactly the same under resulting in 2 of tht weapon being mounted on the same slot ..... This unforuunatly only works wen u buy the ship ( ie this is what thew ship comes with already mounted ) and increases the proce of this ship. This price can b altered by altering the ship price and the weapon proce tht you are monuting to the ship

FinealDay ....In your first post .... just adding the line hp_type = ...... wud tht b possible ... On his sabre seeing how he only has 6 weapon mounts .. the game wud just crash , with out ship modding

Post Tue Jul 06, 2004 3:58 am

sIeGe(-) Reread my post, the addition is changeing 2 guns up to level 10. You can not add more guns without hadding hardpoints to mount them and that would have to be done in an editing program like milkshape. Saber_XR 1.0 has 8 guns on it, I had thought it had added the others, sorry on that info. But, you can learn to mod and hadd the hard points.

My apoliges. Re-Reading ur last post and first i c where my mistake was formed.I forgot tht hp_special_gun01 was the level of tht gun and not the mount.after re-reading the post i see what the post means . Also thou , in the way i firstly read ur post and what i assumed , u shall see tht i was correct in the post questioning ur theory .

Post Tue Jul 06, 2004 8:36 am

There is a theory, that you can modify some guns to be combinable, but they would have to remain on the ship and could not be switched out. It would take a bit of hunting to find that thread.

Well . he sed 2 me he needs it for MP ... You cud have gone into Goods.ini and changed what ure sabre comes with .... U can mount any ammount of weapons to 1 space ... Dunt know if this wud get u kicked thou on a MP server

Post Tue Jul 06, 2004 3:06 pm

If he is tring to use this in MP, you would get kicked for it. You have to use what ever mod type tthe server is using, or you will probally cause a crash. Find one that has modded ships and see what you can find.

I did find a mod. It has the anubus with 10 guns. called The Order Needs You.Link

Its weird hearing you say that.....

I play on 5thW server and was chatting to a server admin the other day. He said to me you can only get kick from the server if you brough a unkonow item .... So... If u can loot the guns outside the planet and change the level of the slots , put a gun on the torpedo slot , and the turret (8guns) then docked and mounted them .... That would not kick you from the server .... Im not brave enuf 2 try it cuz i cant b bothered .. But it worth looking into !

I was Going To Insert An Image But Wasnt Postive If [img Worked Here ?
