starting to mod
well, i have decided that i want to try my hand at modding Freelancer, and i think i can figure out most of it for myself, but what i need help with right now id the scale.
the ini files obviously have values which define where a particular object is, but my problem is that i have no idea how many of the units amounts to 1 kilometer in the game.
also, i'm having trouble making a jumpgate to my new system. i placed the gate near Planet Manhatten, but when i enter it, i never exit it.
i'll take this step by step, first i'll place suns, backgrounds and planets and stuff, i'll worry about bases in a while.
one more thing; is it possible to convert Freelancer's ini files into Java? i actually know a fair bit about that language. i doubt its possible, but i just want to ask anyhow.
