Freelancer Beta 1

Scumbag

I have been playing the first mission in the beta. I really love the way the ship handles, i never liked the absurd speeds and agility in vanilla. Is there any way to copy parts of the interface to a mod? Some of those things are really usefull.

Scumbag

Is there anyone who knows more about interface editing? I played around with the beta files trying to copy them to a vanilla install and hopefully reenable the mesh viewer for the player ship. The files are very similar, beta has an aditional mesh entry to a .vms file in the hud_showinfo. I really hope that it’s not disabled definetly from the game engine.

Finded in Beta and implemented in my mod. Any base in Beta has landing animation.

SWAT_OP-R8R

nice find

HunterKiller

Good find. I always wanted to see something like that in the game.

So what’s different? The thns themselves?

corpse

scripts/bases/ launch & land .thn for decks and then called from system/bases/room.ini

[PlayerShipPlacement]
name = X/Shipcentre/01
landing_script = Scripts\Bases\Rh_04_Deck_land_01.thn
launching_script = Scripts\Bases\Rh_04_Deck_launch_01.thn

oh you can open the doors with

sc_no loop

but i did not figure how to make it play one time yet, it keeps looping the door anim

Jeider

Use animation_oneshot instead animation.

corpse

Hey thank you

robocop

I have not yet been able to get the beta to run so I can’t even see the animations you speak of. If I were to try to incorporate the thns into my install to see them I’m assuming it would be a simple matter of replacing the thns with the ones from the beta and making the changes in the rooms files as applicable.

Or, would I also need to replace the cmps and 3dbs for the bases?

Jeider

1.0 bases is compatible with beta launch/land scripts. Just use example maded by corpse.

1. Activate scripts in [PlayerShipPlacement]
2. Add animation_oneshot = Sc_no loop in [Room_Info] (you can did it without beta scripts)
You need to do it in EVERY Deck room in your FL.

Possible problems:

rh_outpost_deck launch script is very bad. Use any else script from another faction
bretonia battleship doors is open by defaults. You need to change animation to run backwards. For example:

change to…

kusari battleship has no launch script. Use script from bretonia. It is compatible with some little glitches. (ship in walls at the end!)
didn’t find outpost or station script? Get it in another faction! All is compatible with same others.
you can close doors if you want it. For example on station:

0
0
3,333333
13,92367 ;default animation ends there
10 ;before 10 second we will keep...
13,92367 ;...same position 
13,3 ;and on 10 second we will start to...
0  ; closing it!

All land and launch scripts is attached to this post in scripts.zip.
