Freelancer Mod Studio - 1.2
-
This tool is nice for positioning objects and finding things in existing systems faster than swimming through the text, even with the current way of selecting objects (you have to peel the zones off to get to them)
What’s more of an issue is that the tool does not support CYLINDER shapes very well (displays boxes and the rotation does weird things), and the rotate = a, b, c entry is not interpreted the same way as in Freelancer. That is probably the most important thing for me, since I would like to use this tool in the future to check patrol path positioning in systems that are not entirely on plane (y=0).

I know this is digging up what seems to be an older topic (march?) but I’m a new modder and I was wondering on the status of this program and what the newest available version would be?
Thanks

The current version is the 0.9.2.0, the link in the first post has been updated, I’ve been using it for a few months now and it has a lot of useful features especially the 3D system view.
Objects can be copied from existing systems and pasted into your new one (be careful with zones if they have exclusions) and the name, location edited as required.

If everything goes well there will be a new version comming out pretty soon.
Changes:
- Load and save blocks in the original order
- Allow to change the order of blocks using drag&drop
- Allow sorting the blocks while still retaining the block order
- Options will be saved in a unified orderer which is used by Freelancer
- Allow to load and save entries which dont have a value (seperable = )
- If there are multiple entries for a single option take the last (Freelancer like behaviour)
- Implemented octahedron mesh display for LightSource
- Fix a crash when opening a system in the universe 3D display when using the english language
Please tell me what you think about =]

I think it looks great
But tell me… can i trust it? I code by hand now thanks to FLE & me not working out well… i still use FLE but will never let it touch my mod with its confused sticky fingers… as was stated previously… changes are made, then its a long process of lifting the relevant data from my “dummy mod” into the real mod…
How far removed from that scenario is this proggy?? keep in mind i code just about everything from scratch/templates… and prefer the hands on approach… even to market files… Thus has FLE turned me into an anally retentive monster… will this somehow help in my recovery of trust in modding programs for FL? … besides the ones that actually do as there told… HCMP, FLDev… ect
Looks nice though.

Well you should be able to trust it completely. It might try to be clever and reorders options based on known Freelancer .ini option order and you can even change them globally when editing the template.xml in the application’s directory.
In the new version you can manually reorder blocks because those need to be in a specific order in some files.
About the option values. Well FLMS does not try to force any values for them. You can enter anything you like (right now) but Freelancer may not like it. Actually it was planned to support you with that as well but I did not have the time to implement it yet.
OK … what I want to say is that everything you see after you saved the file is entirely your doing except option reordering. Therefore you can definately trust it as it wont magically change things or crash because of strange values or something like that.

0.9.5 released
Download the latest version here
View the changelogYou can also use the autoupdater of your Freelancer Mod Studio if you have it installed to automatically upgrade.
I rearranged a lot of options inside Template.xml which define the save order or options within a block - for example if nickname = … will be saved before ids_info = … or the other way round
But there are still lots of options left to rearrange in template.xml. If anyone wants to help please feel free to compare them with FL vanilla .ini option arrangement and send me your differences. Thanks

What the heck I guess I didnt test it enough this time.
Mirkha: Mind sending me your universe.ini? Because if I understood you right your vanilla ones works - thats correct?
EDIT:
CK256: Mind sending me your system+universe+solararch file as well because I cant reproduce it with my vanilla files? -
This Mod studio is sooo…. USEFULL!!! Notepad is finished! :x
Thank you so much!!! 8-) -
Hey,
thanks for your praises =]Now CK256: Did you solve the issue?
Mirkha+CK256:
I tested all of you files and they work perfectly fine for me. If you still have that issue you could uninstall and install the application but I doubt that this would help. If you cant get it to work we might have to meet in irc so that you can tell me in detail how to reproduce it (otherwise its hard to fix)PS: New update coming out today because after drag&drop a block the 3D viewer has still saved the wrong IDs and therefore if you select one block on the list, the wrong one will be selected in the viewer.

The loading issues have gone although the download release appears to be the same, anyway it now works for me

(Edit)
I’ve just had a problem during a copy/paste action (the copy/paste worked after restarting) I did notice two panning targets just prior to this, I’ve copied the details (looks like English but I don’t understand a word LOL)See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.************** Exception Text **************
