Cool! Are you any good at the modding?

I learned .odf-modding and experimenting/troubleshooting by doing. And I did it since 2002

Howeve, Tyler and I guided you through the basics of .odf-modding already and I think you'll be able to find the problem. I'm convinced it has to do with the .odf-change between the old and the latest versions in some way.

It certainly can't be any energy shortage, at least not for the Risner version; it has 100,000 units of SE.

Cool. Didn't check it yet (because I don't really wanna download it just to read around in the files).
I remember how I messed up my heavily modded A2-techtree once because of a typo (,odf instead of .odf in a line, what a funny thing to discover).

The ship looks brilliant, weapons work, and the prox torp works fine!

Its just when i reaches vet, the multilayer sheilds and other system upgrades all get added and work, except the dist field?

I copied the files exactly?

As said before: This mod is designed for version 3.1.5, and the current FO-version is 3.2.6 and the .odf-system changed between those versions. Because of that, the techtree is different, too.
If you want to make this work with 3.2.6 you really need to adjust things.

right ok! but the problem will be in the techtree not the odf?

I can't tell because I don't have the odf-files to look at them.

You need to check the files that are involved in this modification.
Distortion-field, passive abilities in the odf's and the techtree of course.

Sorry to bump this thread, but does anyone have the files for this ship? I tried downloading it, but it says the file is no longer there.
I would put the peices together, but I'm a little behind on modding ST Armada and Fleet Ops.

I know we have our disagreements but I am definitely not going to criticize your modelling skills. Good job.

Can that just be plopped into the mod folder as is along with Warp Ins mod or do I have to merge files with a text editor?

nm.......looks like I have to merge files since it's a replacer.

I don't think you can make a mod that's a true stand-alone, not with how Armada is built.

Theres a big difference between porter and modeler.
