Title: FreeSpace Registry Guide v. 1
Post by: Krackers87 on May 22, 2005, 09:01:52 pm: For those of you who dont know, this is a cool little database i put together in MS Acess (with the help of Sandwich's ship list)

It contains all the information on ships in FS2 each with a brief description and a query form for the database capable of searching on a number of different fields (search for all aelous class to appear in FS2 or all Shivan Cruisers and such)

Get it here:

Plans for next release (V 2) ::

Add a destroyed query field.
FreeSpace 1 ship information.
Clarify any sketchy descriptions (Destroyed?)

Edit: Bleh, I'm a dumbass. Or just didn't look too carefully at the dl page the first time since I'm on Linux. :p

Too bad, I had a couple of libs that would've let you dynamically generate the stuff from VPs.
