It was my first thought too but my little tutorial give the general idea for other ships changing so it should be useful.

Yeah! Lack of the splash dds caused this. Now I have my GoblinWorld fully working. No more buying motherships at maintenance stations. You miserable humans, you will have to come to my world buhahahaha.

4th line form the bottom - if I understand correctly you changed something in rockets.xml. Seeker is probably type of seeking warhead that not exist. All types of warheads must be defined in Rockets.xsd.
I advise you to make a fresh install and start modifying ship from the scratch. Tracking all your previous mistakes may be time consuming.

[wmaynard80]

heres the three files if it would be easier for you to look at what i have done to them ,once again thanks for the help
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=32MXCHPL

[wmaynard80]

no thats the weird thing i have only edited the three files that yall said to edit the carcasses.xml shipdescription.xml and quest.xml ive upload them if you could take a look at them

[Lonck]

you forgot to place the Liger_Dreadnought.IMD in the appropriate folder? or the Liger_Dreadnought.ini? .ini goes to Data\TEXTURE\Interface\Carcass\Slots
and .imd goes to \Data\OBJECT. Also you don't need to change the quest.xml.

[wmaynard80]

no i did put both files in the right spot ,just double checked ,and sorry i did not edit the quest.xml i edited the quest.script for the mission that gives the mothership from ternie,,so i have no idea what i have done wrong ,

[wmaynard80]

in the carcass file what is the right name to look for to change the 2nd arba you get to the liger,,,,,,,,the clean arba not the pirate version because i think maybe i might have changed the wrong one
