Modding SW3?

[Kothyxaan]

ive tried changing the rocket slots on the Hrimturs to small guns and to big guns but neither work,
i edited the Hrimturs in the carcass.xml in /data/game folder and the Hrimturs in the /texture/interface/slots/carcass
i tried changing one of the rocket slots to a big gun then a small gun, neither works
when the ship is bought the appropriate slots are there but they dont wont accept guns

any apologies if this question has been asked before

The way you modified the ship you can only add system slots. All other slot types need to be added to the appropriate ship "IMD" model file (../Data/OBJECT). Check which file is used (mesh_name in Carcasses.xml) and modify via IMDEditor.

Yeah, I mean the MekTek, its not that new. MW4 was given a free license start of last month being the more new thing. So you can use the MekTek pack without owning the game. I've only got MechWarrior 2: 31st Century Combat out of the series, pretty insane game when it came out, even though I didn't fully understand it at the time. Mostly only played RTS on PC and everything else on console back then (console is pretty fail nowadays, cept for some games).

On topic: Textures take a while >_> Same with making specific bits shinier.
The Charon shop seems to always have a certain set of ships once its loaded.
Still can't get the Cheetah+Tbeam to work, probably wont.

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

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.
