Thanks

Hi. Basically I’m trying to beef up the defenders stats a little. I’ve found the netires for the handling, I think, but am having problems with the weapons, shield, thruster etc; just want to change the max level of equipment that can be used.
Is this info in the loadouts ini? And if so are the details I neeed labeled under li elite heavy?
Any help is much apreciated ;D

hiya Ghost! ;D

Hiya chap! ;D

Is this the code for the custom armour like carbon fibre and nomad armour we have on void?

That uv map was for the gladiator so I’d hope it didn’t fit the defender as that would confuse me even more
I should be alright now as someones given me a basic outlay of the way it works. I’m just a complete noob at this but I’ll get my head round it!
Thanks for the replies
;D

This is what I was given…

This is for the gladiator.

I know how to get to the mats using the utf editor so thats ok.I think I’ve just been shown an odd way of doing things. A freind of mine showed me how to preview the ship as you went along. To do this he gave me some files that he had already worked on. Namely ms3d and a couple of files he had converted to psd and I hten converted to jpegs. I opened the ms3d file and then in ms opened up the first jpeg which ms then skinned the ship with. I did the same with the 2nd file which created like a blue print of grey on black around the ship. This 2nd file was what he told me was a uv map for the ship. He’s only just learned how to do this recently so it may be just us 2 confusing each other

Hi. I’ve been playing with textures for the defender but I have yet to find a copy of the uv file for that ship. Is there a place where I can d/l the map from or do I have to make one for it? And if I do have to make one is there any tutorials on the subject available?

Sorry was being an idiot, fixed it now

Hi, I’m having problems with photoshop opening dds files. I dropped the 2 files that came with the kasdian overhaul
manual but when I tried opening the texture files in ps cs2 I get that windows can’t open this file: error. I’ve dropped the files in the correct folders but its not having it. Any help is much apreciated ;D

Thanks for the help folks

Would you sugest milkshape for just the skin retexturing? I have both its just that a tut I have doesn’t mention milkshape just the utf editor. I intend to keep the skin as it is just recolour it.

Hi folks just a quicky. I take it that the utf editor does the same stuff as milkshape?

No worries man, I’m just gunna play with it. I’ll get there ;D
@Wolfie… We’re everywhere!

Thanks for the replies ;D

I played mech warrior 4 mercs for a long time and even though it’s still about it’s now just the hardcore fans involved. Freelancer in my opinion has a longer shelf life. The basic game provides a great framework to develope new and varied roleplays and themes and we need to take advantage of that aspect. I don’t think it’s a game on the slipery slope, what we are seeing the start of is the next evolutionary step. It’s now going to develope into a case of quality rather than quantity, which I don’t see as that bad a change. It’s a pity that the days of servers with 100+ members online will one day be a thing of the past but theres not a great deal we can do about this. Maybe one day we might actualy be blessed with a Freelancer mk2, til then lets just keep enjoying what we have and scream through the pain!

;D

NI!

Hey there good buddy! It must be a genetic disorder common to artists I’ll be ingame tonight if you’re about so don’t be a stranger ;D

Hi. Well basicaly I’m gunna have a shot at making a clan skin for our ship the Stingray. I have milkshape and cs, is this all I need? And in regards to the texturing, do I need to get hold of the basic frame of the ship to apply them to during modeling? Any help is much apreciated, thanks in advance ;D
