Freelancer Mod Studio - 1.2

? Offline

And how to edit? Is’nt it just 3d preview with properties editor? After FL Explorer i fear to change anything by automated tools of this type

Oh boy why does everyone mention FLE in connection with not trusting tools anymore

Didn’t you already use it? It is perfectly safe. It doesnt change the ini section order (only the option order within each section to make it unified). It doesnt remove anything on its own (except comments). It only changes one file and not the whole mod.

And yes, currently it does not support transform using the mouse in the 3d view

Congratz and thanks for continuing this project .

Cant seem to get it to work, no start, irritating window says:~

The Settings file “FreelancerModStudio.xml” could not be loaded

The type initialize for “<module>” threw an exception

The C++ module failed to load during appdomain initialization

The system cannot find the file specified</module>

Clean install on an XP_SP3 system

Ezekiel

thanks again for the tool

stfx

@Thaddeus: This one is unfortunately not reproducible for me. An internet research resulted in the fact that your system is probably somehow not working flawlessly. Try reinstalling .NET Framework 3.5 and/or DirectX, hopefully that fixes it

Sushi

Oh baby! This is epic!

Great work, stfx - many thanks!

Just a feature - can be released also as a portable program ?
I install copy and uninstall and works ok .

Sushi

STFX, is there any way to click ADD in FMS, click on the system editor 3D and add zones? Or is that too much work to add as a feature?

Also could you possible add vignette zones as a zone with a pretemplate?

Thanks man! Love this tool!

JFA

Nice JOB !

THANKS!

JFA.

I am sorry Sushi, unfortunately that is out of the scope for this version

There is just a tiny possibility that I add mouse transforms (translate, rotate, scale) as the last big feature

Alright, all bugs I know of have been fixed. I will wait for a week or so for any bug reports and then will publish the last version of Freelancer Mod Studio. Thanks for all the praise guys

Just installed this, and it’s really cool stuff!
I dunno if this has been discussed or not but perhaps you could put it up on the Forge in case someone else wants to play ball with it in the future?
What you’ve done is awesome, and I could see it being the basis for a sort of full suite that did everything you’d need (Maybe unlikely for that to happen, but hey a man can dream )

Regardless, thanks for your great work and I look forward to using this!

Hm I cant see the reason why it should be put on the Forge as people could also continue developing when the project’s home is google code. Also I prefer it to be independent

Hi,

I’m getting an Unhandled exception when I try to view anything in the 3D View.

“The type initializer for
‘FreelancerModStudio.SystemPresenter.SharedGeometries’ threw an exception.”

Any ideas what this could be?
I’m not exactly running a clean build of anything so that probably won’t help.

Cheers,
Rik

stfx

Which version are you running? Which version did you run before you updated?

Also please try uninstalling and reinstalling the setup

rik_starkiller

Ah I’ve cleaned my ageing install of Vista (yeah I know…) up and bit and done a fresh install of the new beta, works great! Thanks for the hard work stfx!
