I need volunteers for a modding project!!!!
Everyone, I need some help. I need a new docking point to be inserted onto the GTI Lycaeon at the same place where its hangar bay is.

I also need someone to make debris fields for both the GVCa Tanen and the GTI Lycaeon.

I tried doing this myself, but now FS2 keeps crashing on me and won't stop crashing if I use my modified pof files. I need help.

You can find the GTI Lycaeon and the GVCa Tanen available for DL here:

If anyone can help me with this, let me know right away.

Anyone who gives me help with this will be properly credited in my "Rock and a Hard place" campaign.

I might be able to do the docking point bit; I would need to fool around with PCS and Modelview a bit, but it should not be too hard as long as actual modeling is not required. ;)

Thank you, CP. If you have a pof editor, there's one minor change you need to do: the texture that reads "beam4" needs to be changed to "beam2". This is because beam4 looks like a docking point but the place where the beam4 texture is located on the Lycaeon is on the side of the Lycaeon's 4 turret banks, so it looks like there are docking points along the sides of the installation's guns. This didn't make sense to me, so I switched the texture. The "beam2" texture is one of the Mjolnir skins and looks better IMO. If you can't manage to retexture it, don't sweat it; I'll retexture it myself once you give it to me.

If you can insert a docking point at the same place as the fighterbay, I'll make you a modding consultant on my upcoming campaign, CP! :D

Not only that, once you're done with your Procyon Insurgency campaign, I'm thinking of asking you to be my FS mission designer for my "Rock and a Hard Place" campaign! God knows, you script your missions with true professionalism. I like that. :nod:

BTW, if you can get the Lycaeon and the GVCa Tanen to have debris fields (at least 4 pieces for the Lycaeon and 4 or 5 pieces for the Tanen) I'd be really grateful.
