Bug Reports & Support / Double Flagships
« on: May 03, 2012, 08:28:34 AM »
Hey alex, i noticed a bug involving flagships.
Heres how it goes:
You sell your flag ship, and you buy another ship and set that of your flagship.
If you buy your old flag ship again, both your current flagship and the old flagship will have to little grey star, and when you start a battle the game will ignore the new flagship in favour of the old one.

Modding / Hyph Hulls
« on: April 30, 2012, 01:13:00 PM »
As the title may suggest, I'm going to be making some ship hulls! (sprites 
)
i've already got one sprite, a frankenship, cobbled together from vanilla sprites.
It needs a NAME!!
It's a long range missile support frigate, with two medium missile hard points, two medium energy/ballistic (I'm undecided) and two small universals (with maybe be moved in the future).
any thoughts are welcome.

Bug Reports & Support / Tabbing out.
« on: April 26, 2012, 05:27:33 AM »
Okay, its not really much of a bug, and its in no way game breaking.
But, I find that when playing on a mac, I can't tab out! After a while its gets very annoying to constantly exit and reload the game when ever i want to check something on the desktop or on the forums.
I know that windows computers can tab out, so i wonder why macs can't and whether or not its a bug.
And if it is, when will it get fixed?
Its not terribly important, but i would like to see it fixed

Modding / The Ursidae Class destroyer
« on: April 07, 2012, 01:28:29 PM »
Hi there, recently i've tried my hand at modding one of my own mash-ups into the game: the Ursidae class destroyer.
Here's its sprite
As you can see its a mash-up of many different ships, mainly the gemini, the eagle and the sunder class.
I have its .ship file sorted, and i've ship data values worked out as well...
But I have a problem.
I've followed the directions of the modding forums as best i can, but i can't get the ship to show up in the game... i don't know what the reason for this is, and i have tried to correct it with little success, you can see this in another post called "Houston, we have a problem.", i've been given great advise, and i have been able to solve a few problems (like the game crashing whenever I tried to run it... urgh)
Now, either through sheer incompetence, or some REALLY obvious and/or simple error, i need help; by help i mean:
If anyone is willing, i will send you the .ship file, the sprite and the ship data, so that YOU, whoever "YOU" turns out to be, figure out what i've done wrong, and try to fix it!
I'll... eh, let you name it :3
...And use it in mods...

Hi.
Recently i've made my own sprite .ship file and all the stuff you need to do in order to get your own ship into the game...
But for some reason, when i run starfarer, the game opens, but it won't load and the cursor goes back to default... any ideas what might be wrong?
Sorry if I'm vague, I'm kinda new to this.

General Discussion / About sprites...
« on: April 06, 2012, 01:48:14 PM »
Hi there.
When it comes to making sprites for mods, people usually make their own graphics or reuse parts of other sprites that are already part of the game.
I would like to know if anyone has ever made a "library" of all the "useful" parts for building your own ships...
i think that such a thing could be VERY useful to people who would like to make their own ships, but don't necessarily want to make their own graphics OR trawl through the sprites that the game already has in order to find bits they want to use.

Modding / So I'm new, and I'm building something...
« on: April 06, 2012, 12:00:16 PM »
Hey guys! this is my first thread topic, thing, but i've already been around a while and posted in other threads, buts that besides the point - i'm building something, and that something is a ship, if you hadn't already guessed.
Im not creating any new sprites myself here, just taking the bits and bobs i want from the ships that are already in the game.
I'm just making this thing as i go, so i don't really know whats its gonna look like (its doesn't even have a name yet! so any suggestions would be nice :3) but so far its looking like some sort of cruiser.
I've got the engines sorted etc, but any feedback would be awesome! especially when it comes to names
