I have to agree that JFLP, a better sur exporter, the UTF editor and others to be on top of the list they would be a great addition to the community, and hopefully making my modding experiences less painful…

but good to know you still have it in mind adoxa, even if a long way off…

Oh yeah, I’ve been willing to code animations for all wings of the original ships…

I will take a while… of course, also following w0dk4’s tut…but having a lot of fun with starflier wings right now

having those animations proper linked to a key or to cruise mode would be a great addition…

Iit’s kind of a off topic request but since the project is getting so big…

Is it possible to add a light pack mount point? would be kind of a pimping feature, to be able to change those slowsmalwhite for slowsmallpurple or etc…

packs would have generically around 20 lights, can cause any issues if mounted on ships with only 7 our 8 RunningLight Hps?

you bring bad news Xarian_Prime, I was planning to use both dlls… they’re kind of complementary to buy and mount faster engines…

That’s it, thanks Bejaymac! Solves the problem.

Nope…. unless you mean inside the model in the same position? (but why on hell they would be there…) I more than double checked the entire model for any scattered vertex i might have selected by mistake… the wire frame 3d box by no angle i have more than 3 red dots…

also happens in other models that i have done the same…

I’m using v. 1.8.5 beta1 of MilkShape, with the cmp importer v2.7,
i want to close holes in the ship hull as I deleted some fins of the original fl models. But as I select 3 vertices and press " f " to create a new face it gives me the following message “please select exactly 3 vertices” But i’m pretty sure I selected exactly 3 vertices…

What am I missing?

for the third(?) time… Thanks adoxa!
great work!
you are of inestimable value to the community

maybe… if you just let the shield slot empty and create a new one for the shields to be mounted much like you are doing with the engines, power plants, etc…

i don’ t know it’s just an idea… well, at least every internal would be in the same basket…

does it make sense?

Ok, I have never done any sort of modding with ships models, but i really like what foxUnit01 did…

I wanted to do something alongside this lines, just add a fin or a engine here and there…Basically to change things that are already there.

Please someone can explain what to do? What tools are used? Or simple point me a tutorial for this kind of ship editing?

Whoa adoxa! That’s pretty impressive! Had already lost my hope on this…

Works as you said… it’s only downside is having to unmount the shield in order equip a engine or powerplant…

I wish I could help… but i only have a basic understanding of C language and absolute no idea of what you are doing into the FL processes…

Many thanks for going down on this subject…

kthanks adoxa, that’s it!

But one question remains… How do you guys find those magic bytes?

Is there any kind of tutorial or technique for that?

OK, another issue, I can’t transfer engines between ships, would that require more Hex editing?
If so anyone knows the codes?

Thanks M0tah!
The Hex code helps a lot!

The FLHook seems to be a amazing tool… but I’m not familiar to it yet… The InternalMountRestrictions feature seems to be what I want… but if its only for MP maybe is not much of use… I will have a look.

Is been a long time since I last payed Freelancer…back at that time I used to do some small mods for myself.

But a few weeks ago when i reinstalled the game and had such fun playing the vanilla SP campaign I decided to go all the way down and do a mod with everything I ever dreamed to see in the game…

It was a sad surprise to know that Lancersreactor is gone, on the other side the modding tools have evolved so much and the community seems to still strong and after all I think I can accomplish the task.

Thanks to all of you

Were can I find the original Freelimits files?
The ones that only make engines sell-able?
All links seems to be dead nowadays…

About the ones with multicruise functionality? If someone knows, what are the differences between M0tah’s Multicruise.dll?

And a last question, would be possible to make engines class and level selective like shields are?

Thanks in advance…
