Hey, sorry for the late questions but I just got my computer set up to play.  Using the instructions that Karajoma said about making a FS_Open subdirectory in FS2, would I be able to put these weapon files in there too and FS will see them if I select MOD in the launcer to point at that subdirectory?

Yep. It will work fine that way. That's exactly how I installed Lightspeeds stuff and it's not caused me a single problem

Sheepy take a look at this

To play with Lightspeed's weapons you just treat it as if you were installing a new mod. Make an new folder called FS2_Main_Campaign, make a data folder inside that and install all these upgrades to that.

[Lightspeed]

That's the way I use my stuff to -- as to not break FS2retail compatibility. After all, I run a FS2 1.2 wihthout any modifications to retail on PXO.

Anyway... :



It's a light laser. As the above screenshots are a bit few I went back and got some more


Fighting a Nahema in close range

FS2_new_weapon_FX_v0.2e

It's evil, it's shivan, it's fun.

[Setekh]

Alouqua. Nice. Is it Shivan?

[Turnsky]

well, i'd assume so, since in one of those screenies, it's on a nahema..

[Setekh]

In the other screenie, it's on an Erinyes... But yeah, I see your point. Just asking.

[Stealth[cro]]

Alouqua AND Hornets in the same picture. Nice

I must say that this new laser, well I love it.

[Sheepy]

First off, cheers kara, that got it working.
Secondly, it looks great Light, but apparently downloading the latest version ****ed it up again, go figure. I think its in the tables somehwere, cause apparently when i go straight to the mission (without doing load out) on my merm i have got the usual 2banks of rocks, and a bunch of "Enemy MX40" or whatever.

I'll go look se if i have buggered anything up but i think i have done it all properly.

[Lightspeed]

you might have to create a new pilot.

[GT-Keravnos]

What can I say (speechless), I 'll let my sig do the talking...

[kasperl]

the 1_30 d build *****es about a lot of table errors?

bad yes/no?

[Bobboau]

yes bad, you will want to fix those. even if the relese build says nothing

[Lightspeed]

Will be done. It's just that for 4 bugs I fix, 5 new ones pop up.

That's what happens when continuously adding new stuff in

[.::Tin Can::.]

So then absolute latest weapon effects are: (And I mean with everything in them, like from start to just now)

[Lightspeed]

Why can't anyone read the first post? - Anyway:

LS, i was foooling around with bob's evn build and i noticed that i couldnt move around the primaries on the select screen. not sure if this is a table error or what but could u please look at it?
i can mess around with Secondaris just fine...

[Bobboau]

you know you may want to start working on beams, takeing advantage of the tileing and translation code, as well as the fact that you can now define beam weapons that have an effective range of 1500 meters to only be rendered as 1500 meters long (well actualy 2000 would probly be better) I have made some upgraded beam graphics that may be useful as a start, but they don't quite work as well as I had wanted them (they change the look of the origonals too much, I was trying to make the origonals look better not diferent) I'll upload them somewere toight

I've noticed this too. It happened with LS's mods and with MindGames (which doesn't use them) so I think it's a problem with the build. I'll go post this on the correct thread.
