Editing systems

I'm using the FreeLancer System Editor v0.2.
How do I find the IDS Name and IDS Info for a planet or a sun or a space sation ?
What should I put into these blanks :
-Msg ID Prefix
-Prev Ring
-Next Ring
-Parent
-reputation
And how can I use then my new system in the game ?

Thank for all these informations !!!

I would use the freelancer explorer, the older one, not the new tool.

That one is better. I use it for my mod.

It isnt better, its just more complete, finished. and more buggy.

but its easy to understand, though its not easy to use, things crash way too often, i even experienced when it cleared an ini completely because of a bug.

the other, new one, is less finished but once the guy worked on it for a while some tutorials and documentation should come and itll probably be the new preference for most, cuz half the time they use on correcting errors made by explorer.

You should also give it a try and use the SDK and start coding in plain text. You have much more direct control on things, and it will greatly imrpove modding skills and knowledge of the interior working of the game, trust me. I code in plain text only.

Dadidan, there is no double posting on these forums (especially within the same forum). I deleted your other thread. Here is the message

Hello
I'm sorry, I've got a lot of questions, but I really want to be able to make my own system.
How can I do to make my system visible on the universe map with the FreeLancer System Editor v0.2 ?

Thanks for help !!!
