REQUEST: Faction Creator Porgram-EDIT: Waitin for 3 dayz for

I've been working on a new faction in freelancer and i have almost got it done but i have hit a dead end and i can't go any further with out some kind of program that makes factions in Freelancer. Since i am not very good at making programs with C++ and i don't know of any other programs to make exe's i figured i'd make a request. The porgram that i am requesting modifys very distinct files in freelancer which i will include with this post. and HCI if ur readin this i would perfer u make it...cause u are the best program maker that i know. Heh. Thankx! Heres the files u need to modify for the Rep, Name, PEople they hate and like, ECT ECT ECT:

This initializes the factions, gives them an ids_name and ids_info, and sets how they relate to other factions.
..\DATA\initialworld.ini

This files arranges how your rep with a faction changes when you deal with their friends and foes.
..\DATA\MISSIONS\Empathy.ini

..\DATA\MISSIONS\faction_prop.ini
..\DATA\MISSIONS\npcships.ini
..\DATA\RANDOM MISSIONS\vignette_parms.ini
..\DATA\RANDOM MISSIONS\rmlootinfo.ini
..\DATA\RANDOM MISSIONS\killablesolars.ini
..\DATA\EQUIPMENT\commodies_per_faction.ini
Please some one help me out and try to make this porgram! Thank you again!

such a programm doesn't exist yet
funny that u complain about waiting 3 days for a programm no one promised u
obviousely u have to make the factions yourself untill some wizzard desides its interresting enough to make such a programm

i know this GreyWolf...i just wanted to know if anyone can make a program or if there is a program maker besides c++ that is relatively easy to run...

I was planning to make such a program. I'm still learning C++, but I can already make "basic" programs.
("OMG, I can make a calculation tool that allows you to do stuff with a fixed set of numbers!" lol ^^, at least it was good for some laughs...)

Still, I'll start on it Wednesday. And I'll give it a GUI to boot. At least I'll try to ^^.

(could take me a week to finish it though. Who knows... ^^)

Btw, I'm working on new factions.

Where did you come at a dead-end?
So far I don't have any problems...

a faction creator would be a great tool, i too have been doing this manually and when you need to addin almost 30 new factions it becomes a task. and now i have a bug which makes the game crash and i cant find it manually. so a programme like this would be really good right now.

Post Wed Jul 30, 2003 11:57 pm

Hey! If this program is created, plz let us know! it would take a lot less time with a program than manually, and it would take weeks off my mod... BTW, thanks all you programers out there, you have made modifying this wonderful game so much easier

I can make it for you (vb/cpp), WHEN you send me an email with the EXACT things to do to add or remove a faction... not about..

My email -> [email protected]

If this is made I'll finally be able to make the Science and Exploration Guild(SEG) I wanna make for my yet un-announced System Mod. Yea. Savage is making his own mod.



I really wanna see this, but first, trying to do a faction Manually, without a DLL editor.
