Hey man,  Any help you need modding Fleet ops, just ask me or Tyler(sorry if I'm volunteering you ).

Now lets see.  Do you know how to edit odfs?

for 1, and 3 Which ships weapons were you wanting to use?  I mean like brels for the klingons, and rehinies for the d'drex?  Just tell me what you want, and I will start on instructions. 

The Sovereign has quantum photon torpedoes, but I can help you give it regular ones as well if you like.  Again just tell me what ships photons you want, like give the sovereign some regular phonons from the galaxy class.

In this section called modding there are a bunch of ships.  Here are some links.

Here is another little something I made that isn't a ship or station.//www.fleetops.net/component/option,com_smf/Itemid,3/topic,5815.0/

Just make sure you install the achilles class last.  It has updated buttons that the other ones don't have.

i was thinking how about the kvorts pulse disruptors for the vorcha and neghvar and the rhienns for the d'deridex  and i was thinking of using the akira photon for the sov but the galaxy would probably be a better choice

are there any extra ships for the other sides as well?

There is a Fek'lhr Class for the Klingons.

Yeah, that is pritty much the only one.

ok, lets go with the akiras weapon for the sovereign.  the galaxy's is special, and it would be a little harder.

what you do is open the FO/data/odf/system folder and look for the file named fed_sovereign.odf and open it with notepad. 

scroll down to the part where it says

weapon2 = "fedW_sovereign2"
weaponhardpoints2 = "hp08" "hp09"
weapon3 = "fed_distortion"
weaponhardpoints3 = "hp08"

Add these lines at the below those lines
weapon4 = "fedW_akiraY2"
weaponhardpoints4= "hp08" "hp09"

That does it for the first rank, Save it anc close it.  Make sure none of them are read only.  Next open  fed_sovereignr2.odf and

Do the same, only add
weapon4 = "fedW_akiraYr22"
weaponhardpoints4= "hp08" "hp09"

keep doing this on all the next ranks.  make sure it that 4 is tha last weapon.  if there is already a weapon 4, change your line to say weapon5...weaponhardpoints5...  And so on.  Also make sure the X in fedW_akirayrX2 is the number corrisponding with the rank of the ship you are editing. 

Any questions?  Is that clear enough?

just 1 question ive done up to rank 6 as you said but do i need to edit fed_sovereignY etc as well?

posted on August 1st, 2009, 5:28 pm

SovereignY is the Risner one, only do that line if you want both avatars to have Photons.

posted on August 1st, 2009, 5:39 pm

yeah, Sorry.  Add the same lines to those if you want that avatar to have them.  I never use Risner, so I alwayse forget.

ok thank you both ive done tha now just want to do the vorcha neghvar and d'deridex i guess its the same process for them as well

posted on August 1st, 2009, 5:53 pm

Yep, but personally I think a cloaking Negh'Var would be better as an avatar bonus. I did that for Martok's Negh'Vars.

posted on August 1st, 2009, 6:02 pm

yes pritty much.

add the weapon "kliW_kvort1" so the ship.  You can use any "hp"s you want. just make sure you don't leave any of the (") out.  There are big probems if you do.

For the ddrex, use the weapon "romW_generix_dre2"

oh and Cloaking would be just

weaponX = "kli_cloak"
weaponhardpointsX = "hp01"

sorry i find it confuzing as hell i need these instructions to follow again for the vorcha neghvar and d'deridex sorry but i got confuzed when it came to doing it for each level i did say i have no idea where to start my only experience of modding ever was sfc3 and that was only altering the mass and cost of weapons etc

posted on August 1st, 2009, 8:48 pm

ok, well take it from the top.  First tell me which avatars you want to modd so we don't det that confused again.

posted on August 1st, 2009, 8:52 pm

ive done the sov and it works fine now i want to do the vorcha neghvar and d'deridex for both avatars

posted on August 1st, 2009, 8:58 pm
