Nice psts here:D great ideas, keep it up;)

Seems that i found the biggest problem...i opened the Liger_Dreadnought.imd with the imd editor....and i dont know which parameters to put in the Liger_Dreadnought.ini

The GKTurrets dont have set parameters in the editor and i really dont know how to make the link between the IMD editor and .ini document....
Please help me out...:(

Im done here, thanks to Nanaki :D

I got to the mothership change part and i get the MS and it says NOT FOUND STRING_LIGER....I think I messed up some folders.

- can't find the good coordonates so I can't place any GKTurret.

Please, I know u guys are busy but help the poor me :( ...I would really appreciate if someone would post the already modded liger files...I really can't figure out what I did wrong...also a tutorial would be perfect.

I did it now.

Sorry about the delay, I was without a computer for awile because my power supply went up in smoke and flames.

Okay, for starters, on the zip file you should have a Liger_Dreadnought.ini and a Liger_Dreadnought.imd. The Imd file goes inside the Object folder, the INI file goes inside the TEXTURE\Interface\Carcass\Slots folder.

Then you need to add or modify a carcass entry in the Carcasses.xml file.

After that, you will need to add an entry in Shipdescriptions.xml, you can change the TRGK3s to any GK Turret you like, just as long as you have a valid GK Turret you should be fine.

<ShipDescription name="Mothership_Liger">
<carcass>Mothership_Lion_mk2a_vks</carcass>
<module>TRGK3</module>
<module>TRGK3</module>
</ShipDescription>


Afterwards, you will have to go to the quest file that you want the ship, and replace the mothership in that quest file with Mothership_Liger. You may have to go through the quest file a bit just in case, as sometimes quests may run a ship check on your mothership.

Thank you very much, but , that i already did , well it was hard i had to merge the parameters in the imd editor to know the coordonates for the GK turrets.

Now i dont know how to make the module slots smaller so i can fit more slots :)

Oh and more thing .... what do i have to mod so i can continue the game after finishing the MSF path ?

Well, I don't know how to make it smaller,
but I did try compacting the slots, so far I can squeeze a maximum of 24
4 rows and 6 columns.

Use it on my customized Lion mk2

Yay i did it :D

Yay!

My Lion Mk3 now has custom decal!

I kind of new at this whole modding thing (actually I started only a few days ago), but I encountered a problem when I was trying to add a Walrus as a buyable ship. I don't know how I did this, but I somehow disabled docking with stations and using portals. Does anyone has any ideas on how I caused this problem and how to fix it?

Silly me:rolleyes:
Apparently I forgot to add a comma in one spot.
Who knew one missing character would cause so much trouble.:mad:
