But i dont kno if i there is a way to change orientation with this method…coz…there is no attached entity…so i cant make canons animation…

There is a ligth parameter too…but animated ligth on the model hav some display bug…dont kno how to fix it…the fx engine probably dont start for the model (PSYS)…

With Equipement method…i can change orientation but requierd lot of entry for 1 ship…and i hav a fleet in my intro…ahaha…

You can make an custom loadout for the ship you wish to animate guns. You can make the loadout entry without the animated light hardpoints and that way eliminate the lights problem. You can also put some non animated guns into the entry, but leave place for the “big gun” you wish to animate in .thn.

Do this on your whole flotilla and you’ll get an nice touch to your animation.

Maybe it could be made int multiplayer through FLHook, but singleplayer most definetly not because the docking part is hardcoded and there is not a thing resembling trading window or similar (maybe the scan window, but very unlikely).

Thanks adoxa, I was about to ask whether there is any reference material.

problem is, we do not know everything exactly. but maybe a prog could be done for outgame effect renderings using the alchemy.dll.

I thought of creating a database of all the different alchemy commands and insert variables into that.
When creating an effect, one would add a state, which corresponds to an appearance and logic node in the .ale, of a type listed in the database. When a type is selected, the application loads it and shows the variables that are “changeable” for the given state.

The states would interact as if they were keyframes in the effect timeline (%). The states would then change to the next state through time. This would be called a stateflow.

Furthermore, each effect would consist of a number of parts i.e. (head, trail, etc.) and each of the parts would have exactly one stateflow.

After changing all the values, one would choose the output location and then commence the generation sequence by clicking a button.

A particle effect editor for FL with preview would be awesome!

Sure it would, but the poor FL would not take all those fancy new shinning FSes that will be put in it after we’d discovered such a tool.

It’s a thanks, don’t worry. It wasn’t you who made me go away from FL. It was myself. But thats over now and I’m back, and I’m thinking of creating an .ale generator, which would simplify the process of making FXes.

Thanks Why, your first FX pack drove me away from FL, and now when you have released the revised edition I’m coming back. Thx

For those of you who spend a lot of their time on forums, here is a good PTC site: NeoBux.

It’s simple just change the key bindings in kaymap.ini and keylist.ini. Not really sure which one. XP

There is also a tool called Process Explorer on the very same site. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896653.aspx

@Lancer:

Excellent site Stormblast, I went thru and added checks for every vunerability I found for my sites. It won’t protect against DOS attacks but at least I have checks for injection attacks added now…

You make me blush. ::) ;D :-[

I was a script kiddie too.

Visit http://www.packetstormsecurity.com/ it serves the best ddos protection tools. It also serves the ddos attack tools. So if you find out who attacks you can attack him. ;D

As fox mentioned the multiplayer scripting is buggy, so you should expect a ton of bugs, and errors.

(Still groggy) Welcome! ;D

@Gibbon:

Let’s define root folder, do u mean your mod folder with the exe folder and data folder inside with xmls sitting in the mod folder next to the date and exe folder? If that’s the case then FLE does work like that as all my mods use xmls and never had an issue with FLE like that. I have other isssues with FLE but that’s another story lol

Yes that’s exactly what I meant. The root folder is the folder of a mod in the mods folder.

@FriendlyFire:

FLE is weird though. It’ll decide not to work for X on computer A, but not work for Y on computer B, and work fine all the time on computer C. It’s just the way it is ;D

My suggestion: don’t use it!

Probably I won’t any more, or just for placing trade lanes and bases.

Has anybody noticed that FLE won’t load the mod if it has a .xml file in its root folder. I tried moving it out when opening the mod and it works. But I am really annoyed with moving the darn file every time I have to do a little change in FLE, then activating the mod. Could this be fixed? ???

Theres Vista SP2? Damn, I thought I had the latest official Windows. (Maybe I’ll get my hands on that new W7 thingy :P)

Greetings fellow lost hope behind the computer screen! My person wishes you well being and welcomes you warmly (I won’t hug or kiss you, though) to the most friendliest community in the Sirius Sector! ;D

@Legion:

Yawn… Mornin folks (looks for his coffee)

Thanks for the replies guys… But seems you misunderstand me a bit!

– 0x0F85->0x90E9 in freelancer.exe, 0xD5936, 0xD5936 = remove cruise speed display limit of 300 (in other words, change 0x0F85 to 0x90E9) ~Unknown

That’s the one I’m talking about… But instead of breaking the limit I want it to say “Warp” when it reaches 300 (or 500 or 999 for that matter). Just as long as I get that word in the HUD when ships are in cruise

In my mod the cruise speed has been set to 1000 and there are no lanes so searching for “2500” wouldn’t help…

If you want to change what appears on the screen you should look around the strings in .dll’s, this offset changes only the maximum speed when in cruise.

EDIT: Sorry didn’t read the previous post XD. This offset changes the maximum value displayed in the speed box. (But you already knew that)
