If you're looking to create ids text strings, you can't go far wrong with fled-ids

Hope this helps

Darkstone: He already mentioned that he couldn't manage getting Dixi's to work.....Dixi is the maker of FLEd-ids.

t3h_Ganner: Usually, most mod makers will employ scripting via FLMM to generate dynamic ids_name and ids_info numbers when the mod is activated. Check the documentation that comes with FLMM (Freelancer Mod Manager) for more information on how this is done, or even visit the FLMM forum here.

If you must absolutely bundle up your ids_names and ids_info's into a DLL for distribution, then FLEd-ids _is_ the easiest way to go. If you need any assistance in figuring out how to use it, there is a search function that should pull up many threads about how to add/create/edit ids using it.

But again, it might just be simpler to rely on the scripting that FLMM employ's in your mod so that any numbers that are needed are generated when the mod is activated. FLMM automatically creates a temporary DLL for freelancer to use for as long as the mod is active.
