Missile Problem
-
Well I’m back again with another question. This time it’s another weird problem with Privateer mod.
The LAU-81 Dart missile launcher is using the missile01_mark01 template. I’ve checked all three files, weapons_equip, weapons_goods, and market_misc for this entry and they are all using the correct ids linking each other but when I run the game the dart missile is using missile01_mark01_rtc info in the equipment.dll file. I’ve checked and checked and the files are using missile01_mark01 not the rtc. I tried removing the rtc and the game crashes. I can’t get this figured out and will appreciate any help on this matter. Maybe someone else has run into this problem. The custom dart missile is not the only missile doing this, there are a couple more that are structured right in the three required files but using the wrong ids. I’ve been on this for a couple days now and I’m frustrated with it. It should be working correctly but it’s not.
The funny thing is there is an entry for missile01_mark01_rtc in weapons_equip.ini, but there is no entry fo the rtc in the weapons_goods.ini.

Well I sort of sorted the problem out. I pasted the ids into the info card sections in the dll and ran the game making note of which number showed up in the erroneous id. Then changed the dll entry to match the weapon id. It worked, and i’m not frustrated anymore. I would still like to figure out why it’s using ids that are not even associated with the weapon in the ini files tho. It’s like this mod has a mind of it’s own.
