Making 2 Sirius nav-maps???

Sat Sep 18, 2004 11:37 am by FriendlyFire

By that I mean you got the original Sirius untouched, and when you change to a specific system, the SIrius map changes to let's say Orion map.

Could this be possible? Like that I could make a good looking mod where you have 2 Sectors (Sirius and Procyon).

Not that I know of. In TRM I've combined them into one. The Sirius map in one corner, and the SW Galaxy map everywhere else.

Hm, well by all means try and code the system positions to be closer together. If you're using FLE, you'll have to code it manually in notepad or INI editor.

Well, if u have freelancer explorer you could quite easily rearrange the locations of all the systems. You can manually anyway but it takes more work getting them all into the right place. It might mean its harder to see which systems are linked together and the very edge dosen`t always show up on the nav map. You can go there but you can`t see where you are.
Is all this stuff hardcoded? or is there a way around it?

In FLE systems have to be placed at certain points away from each other. Doing it manually can change this.

Remember they had only one nav-map DB... This is easy to change, but making 2 nav-maps isn't as much, if it is ever possible....

don't know if it is able to make sector-jumps... (no, not system jumps, but sector jumps, like jump out off serious sector into an other sector...)

don't know also if someone tried to make that also...

As far as I'm aware, not possible.
