Custom thermal pulse cannon not appearing on fitting lists
« on: September 03, 2012, 11:39:38 AM »
Anyone else having similar problems when using that particular weapon as a base?

i can buy the weapon, but i cant mount it unless a variant has it preloaded.

I have added the weapon data so you can pinpoint the problem if you know whats wrong.

I wanted help to fix the weapon :P that doesn't look very helpful. but it looks kinda funny tho with laser bolts coming from an empty turret mount. XD

EDIT: Can the odyssey handle it? his flux looks a bit high =D Here is the ship it was designed for.

Also. I didn't use a variant. I just put them on the ship.

And how did you do that if they ain't appearing on lists? i cant mount the weapon in game without a variant.

EDIT: I think i have found the issue tho, had 2 of the same weapon file in the other faction, one correct and one incorrect, it was using the later. thus it didn't work on either mod = /

Yea you only got the correct files, so it worked for you and not me. but ive fixed it now, but that turret looks a bit shabby without the turret itself :P you want the graphics?

EDIT: put 4 of that turret on the paragon, its going to go absolutely mental.

Have you removed the hint 'SYSTEM, SHOW_IN_CODEX' for your variant of the weapon? SYSTEM is what makes it unusable/unselectable for variants.

yeah i did, but i have 2 factions and the weapon was in both, which was not intended, and the one in the other faction had that system show in codex hint, thus it didn't work for any of them.
