I Have Been able to Change Ships And weapons on both my ship and npc but have been unable to get them to show up in the anamated sequences i have seen info on this but have been unable to Re-find it And SEARCH leaves me with no answers.

I’m just throwing out a guess here, but sounds like either a .thn or a .ale file reference.

.thn files are simply LUA files and there is plenty of programs out there that can open them. For the .ale files there is my program (Ale editor) and Adoxa’s tool (forgot the name).

thn’s are encrypted though, but FLed Thorn can decrypt them, and apparently, if it does mistake, the FLDev can correct any error. that thn SDK is right what you need, though, again, there may be some corruptions here and ther, like a missing closing bracket or so. for tutorials on editing and creating thn’s, go for a search at our TLR archive over at lancersreactor.com

Regarding the THN files, FLThorn to decrypt them, Notepad to view them, FLScan to fix them if they need fixing which very few of them ever do but it does happen. Been using those tools for a while and never had an issue. Not tried the newer ones to edit them
