Quick installation question.  I downloaded the mod and placed the zipped folder in the mods folder like normal.  I also modified the vmparams file as mentioned on the front page.  When I load up the game and try to select it, however, no mods are listed (not even lazylib).  This is with a fresh install of 0.6.1a.  Is there a step I am missing or is it a new bug?  Thanks for any help.

Unzip.

As far as I know, the launcher only looks for folder structures inside the mod folder, not for archives of any sort.

Yeah, unzip.

And just to mention - Ironclads no longer require LazyLib.

Thanks for the help.  It works now!

[Okim]

Don`t be getting too far in the game as i`ll roll out a new update in a couple of days

Nothing critically uncompatible though - just a couple of new systems and stations that wont spawn in saved games.

Hey having problems loading saves again changed the vmparams as stated in the OP, worked for awhile, but now having the same problem. Playing on a imac snow leopard osx. Any other tips I can try out to get this to work? Thanks in advance

Other than this i have no idea what to suggest.

Is there a way to obtain the alien mothership? I know there is a script to make the rock fly unobtainable, and no the previous versoin of iron clads, I know you could obtain alien ships, but I have not been able to try and board a single one. Mayby I am just being unlucky.

Anyway,  I am really enjoying the mod so far, but in the pirate stations, where it gives you the option to switch between ships or items you can just swap with hot keys, although you probably already know this.

1. in current version you can no longer board aliens, AI and Rock Flies. You get some expensive stuff for them and weapons.

2. yeah i know. Unfortunatelly its impossible to force some parts of the GUI to be disabled, so you can indeed visit everything on pirate base. This will be adressed in the future by providing an unlimited access to stations special offers, cargo and ship yard until you leave the station. If you leave and revisit it - you`ll have to pay again.

Ok then thanks. From using the current version of ironclads, could I go back to the previous version, so I could capture aliens, or is there a way I could allow myself to be able to capture them?

[Okim]

Aliens wont be capturable and you can`t do anything here.

In some distant future there will be hybrid ships - 1 DE per each faction utilising local alien techs (XLE/RSF -> AI, ISA/UIN -> aliens).

These ships will be available on new research stations in exchange for alien-tech components.

[Farlarzia]

What I meant was is there any script I can change, to allow myself to unofficially play with them? I find the ships really fun to play with, and it would be a shame not to be able to use them, since they are so fun to ply with due to there unique style of ships. Also, why is there a friendly dialog text for them, as they are obviously not meant to be friendly?

[Okim]

A bug surely. Will fix at some point.

All scripts regarding chances to get boardable ships are in JARs. This means that you have no access to them.

P.S.: they can`t be taken out of JARs to be available to public.

[Farlarzia]

Ok then, I found the .jar file and thought it might hold the secrets to not being able to board them, thanks, a shame, but understandable

There are more pressing things than hybrid ships right now. Plus Ironclads is not the only projects of mine
