about a little ship from a mod that doesn't work
« on: July 30, 2024, 06:50:29 AM »

Hello there, i could use some help!
let me explain the thing!

Since 5 days, I was trying to do some custom mod with a ship, doing the sprite, using ship and weapon editor (3.0.0-alpha11) and set up the shield, collision, weapons slots, engine etc.
Ship file, ship data and description.
Actually i followed tutorial, end up breaking my saves, so something didn't work like planned and i can't figure out where i failed, fortunately i'm a derp and got 4 versions of the game and tons of spare saves so i manage to get it back (after sweating a lot ofc).
I tried several methods to made it works but all were unsucessfull. Something in my files could be wrong

It confirms what I already knew, i'm pretty silly AND our modders are really talented

The fact is i could use some help to transform the little cruiser i made into something real and into a viable mod,
the ship is regular cruiser size, based on a Falcon hull, hull was changed a little bit so if someone who usually modify ships and create small mods want to lend a hand, i'd be grateful!
And if it fits in a commission, let me know! we could discuss

Hi.

It would help if you also posted your code.

Also, inquiries about modding are more suited for the modding sub-forum.

hi there, thanks for your answer

i finally manage to get it works, so far it did not take into account the changes of the excel (data), after having fully entered the values in shid editor it worked well and the ship was able to appear ingame.
I'll have to fix some rogue values (too many op points for example) and improve the visual

modding sub forum? right i'll go for it next time

It sounds like you’ve made good progress! Double-check your file structure and syntax. If you need expert help, consider reaching out to modding communities or hiring a modder. They can review your files and help fix issues. I needed an essay that would impress my professor, so I paid for one at https://academized.com/pay-for-essay The service provided me with a top-notch essay that was well-researched and well-structured. The writer demonstrated a deep understanding of the topic and delivered a paper that exceeded my expectations. The process was smooth, and the essay was delivered on time. This service is an excellent choice for students needing a high-quality essay.
