Title: Need help and stuff
Post by: Solid Snake on April 18, 2004, 01:46:54 am
Let me get right to it.

EDIT: Accually I dont think I need the Bakha anymore! I had it allready list as a fighter? which brings me to the next point:

I need a complete Freespace ship and weapon reference. Ship hull hitpoint, Shield hitpoints, for both fighters/bombers and capital ships and weapon damages including lasers, missiles, beams - everything. There used to be all this stuff on Volitionwatch but I havent been around and it's gone now. I probably should get all this myself but I am not really familiar with the freespace files.

If there is a site with that stuff on it or there is a word document with it all that'd be really great. I think I had a word document with the ship stuff but not weapon stuff once, but I have since lost that.

I would tell you what I need this stuff for but I really don't want to get anyone's hopes up or anything.

You can e-mail me at [email protected] or post it here on the forums.

Thanks for any help. I think I'll need it.

The Wiki (http://dynamic4.gamespy.com/~freespace/fsdoc/) should give you some or most of the information you need, ships and weapons can be found under the Freespace Universe (http://dynamic4.gamespy.com/~freespace/fsdoc/index.php/The%20Freespace%20Universe) section. I know there are better references but there long since gone.

Excellent! Thanks for the links.

Glad to hear volitionwatch is comming back... but how long is temporary? I hope it's not too long.

It may be just server downtime but from what IceFire has said here (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,22999.0.html) it looks like the domain has to be renewed.

Err... ships.tbl perhaps?

hm... here's ALL the weapons:


Edit: Crikey, don't ever post a full .TBL here again. I'll attach it myself further down - in .tbl form which can be opened via notepad. But breaking the tables like that is just wrong :p ://Kalfireth

That was NOT[/i] necessary. Thank you for screwing the tables again.

Right. Here's the promised weapons.tbl file that Hippo "accidentally" posted in full text form. You can view it with Notepad at your leasure.

Ah, that's great.  Would there happen to be a full ship table like that too? The stuff on Freespace Universe site appears to be incomplete.

Why the hell are you guys getting so pissed off at him, for posting the table?  Sure he made a mistake, but you don't need to flame him and get all pissed off over it.  Christ...

I don't think anyone really means it adwight, it was just a tad OTT.

Solid Snake - here's the ships table file:

Whoops...

wait... how did that manage to break the forum tables?

Don't ask me - could be that word wrap wasn't enabled or something to that effect (whatever the equivilant is here).

No harm done, but it scared the **** out of me when I first saw it ;)

Isn't that like a security risk Kal?

Post by: kode on April 19, 2004, 02:17:46 am
I think the code tag is supposed to not linebreak. weird how the other posts pagebroke too, tho. that shouldn't have happened, should it?
Title: Need help and stuff
Post by: Fineus on April 19, 2004, 02:47:12 am
Don't think so - AFAIK each new post has it's own specific table.

That said, people don't normally post entire documents of that size - it shouldn't be much to worry about... I hope...

I'm the exception. :D ;)

Some large pics also break the tables, that's why I am advocating for image size limits [large images should be linked].

These files are the ones I was referring to :D There Fs2 only AFAIK.

It was off Descent Chronicles a few years back, very very old site. Great resource at the time though :nod: . It took some time to get them because my bro had the CD.

Weapons Chart (http://home.iprimus.com.au/nexus387/forums/fs2_weapons_chart.htm)
Ship Chart (http://home.iprimus.com.au/nexus387/forums/fs2_ship_chart.htm)

Note: I'm gonna take them down off me server in 7 days, I don't like the look of the html code :p inefficient

Whoa, there's a blast from the past - good old descent.gamestats.com, heh. You're right, their HTML is pretty inefficient :p Maybe we can clean it up and add it to HLP 2.0.

I could help with that, assuming you need some help :D

Bit late for that JarC, I'm nearly finished redoing it in XHTML but I feel this needs a place in the resources section via the HLP homepage. I'll post it soon :D

never too late, this stuf belongs in the wiki, that is why it is there...

Late for me not for u :p, I know the wiki is for FS related stuff I just thought that such a reference could do with a link in the wiki and have its own layout due to its complexity and usuability :D

Its done, well it was done 2 days ago, but certain issues came up and it couldn't be uploaded.

Thanks to Sandwich for pointing out and helping me streamline my code :yes:, Styxx for his attempt to place it on HLP and Setekh for suggesting the idea. Oh and the original authors Zarathud and Pastel, well because compiling the info takes time. :D I would thank myself but I'm not into that :p

Ships (http://home.iprimus.com.au/nexus387/fred2/reference/ships.htm) and Weapons (http://home.iprimus.com.au/nexus387/fred2/reference/weapons.htm) reference (both are valid XHTML 1.0 / CSS 2.0, tested in all upto-date browsers excluding Mac ones, cause I ain't own a Mac :p
