Re: Vehicle sizes

While that's not really a bad idea, it is a bit of a heavy handed solution and the rigid ship classes may turn some players off.

I like a solution of separating strategic and combat speed. By...

Re: OT: Movies You Have Seen Lately

Re: Balance Mod Available for SE:V

Re: SE V: Unique Abilities And Ideas

The magic line in VehicleSizes.txt is Space Combat Maximum Speed Per Movement Point. In stock ships have a value of 0.001 and fighters have a value of 0.002. Playing with these values could easily...

Yeah, but if MM wants to make the game really mod friendly (more so than it already is http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif ) why not take it all the way and come up with a method...

Re: Modding challenge Part 2!

Unfortunately, no. I tried it and the game won't allow custom weapon types.

Re: Component-dependant engines

Quite true, Fyron, it does put a limit on the component of one per ship unless the modder plans things out very carefully.

Also, I've done some testing and have only been able to get the...

Re: Component-dependant engines

I was thinking more along the lines of odd requirements where the modder would need to use a dummy ability in order to make his concept work, same as the "Palace" ability was used for SEIV mods.

Re: Component-dependant engines

I didn't catch it earlier but Phoenix-D's posting of how SJ used the "Get_Design_Ability_Total" function is a great workaround to not being able to add our own ability types. Using it you can make...

Re: Component-dependant engines

When I try to use "Test" as an ability on a component I get an "Unknown Value" error.

I don't think I'm following what you're saying, CK.

Mod's coming along nicely, CK! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Quick question, you added the Override_InvConfiguration_Slots.txt file, did you intend to use it?

Re: Max level for Spaceyards?

Something is not right with your testing then because they will go up to level 100 without a problem.

Are you starting a new game for each test?

Re: Whats so bad about the UI????

Now that I've gotten used to it, the UI isn't that bad.

The one main complaint I do have, however, is the ship design UI, it is much too tedious and I miss the simplicity of SEIV.

Re: PBW now supporting SE5.

Um, since the game pulls the mod data from the save, why would there need to be a command line option for it? My mod saves have always loaded fine without having to pick the mod first.

Re: .x Model file question..

Just tested. Neither directx nor the game engine mind if you use two separate objects in an .x file so, by extension, you should be able to use more.
