Since there is a request to make the weapons and power systems more realistic, i've posted some info about it. The numbers correspond with the tutorial so just replace those steps with these:
4: Now open up the goods.ini and place this line:

By now you should have corrected energy capacities and the weapons will consume large portions of energy. The primary guns will smash anything they touch but are power hungry. The defense guns can chew any starter fighter up with their high fire rate but have relatively low effect against better ships. The missile turrets fire high agility torpedo class weapons with huge area effect but they have some blind spots and take the longest to reload

is this for the demo or full version

Now can someone send me the changed INI FILES??

Admin For Macross Saga Server.

Can't you create an installation file for it, 'cause i can't get it to work....i have checked it several times for errors, but my server allways crashes.

damn! i just installed FL again and the server still crashes, so it has nothing to do with the mod....

I was trying to get the missles to have real ammo. But It seems I suck at it and couldn't. I'll show you what I added. I mean.. (Its from the older version, not the power hungry energy one.. I think that the missles are damn strong, so this is why I wanted to make it like that.)

In market_misc it is now: (AMMO is there.. for ammo buying...)

Basicly, all I needed to edit I think in weapons_equip is the missle turret... So I did.. This is the code I changed around a bit...

Thats what I did.. When I play, it doesnt appear.... Any reasons?

Err I mean.. It DOES appear, the missle gun and all.. but not the ammo, but when i go to the ammo buying selection screen... Nothing is there but a missle that has no name and below it has no missles loaded, so its at 0... So its bascily a no named missle with a marking of 0 ammo loaded.. But there isn't no selection on the right side for that ammo....

(How do i name the missle btw?)

hmm yes, i am having the exact same problem =/

Odd, I though It would work..
We're missing something here.. But I'm clueless....

I might get started on trying get a gunship in... which would be nice, right?

I'm about half-done a gunship. RHEINLAND Gunship that is.. Does this gunship have any special guns? I want to know how to finds its normal guns.. I mean.. The picture and all the stuff is in. Like power and crap.. But I'm not positive about the guns.

How man guns should it have?

I tried to put ammo in but experienced the same problem. Thats why i gave it a slow reload and made it energy hungry. As for posting the files for downloads. Could you guys point me to a site for posting the files. It won't be an installer since i don't have the tools or knowledge to make one but it'll be the modded files i used for this tutorial.

Odd.. Well.. I'm getting a site soon, maybe in a week or two.. Making it for Freelancer, so then I'll put a "ADD FILE" button for peeps. But for now, I aint sure where to put files...

Go to http://www.lancersreactor.com/t/forum/t ... cer&M=True Wanderer... Maybe you can help me with my Gunship problem.. I used the battleship template...

If your talking about the gunboat then i'll give you a little help. Give me a little while. I will test the whole thing out and place an entire gunboat tutorial for you at the thread you mentioned. But it will take a few hours. Will that do?

Yes, Thank you.
