Terran avatar's

posted on November 5th, 2008, 4:31 pm

I have added the Terrans into my personal version of the game (I have one for multiplayer and one for personal, meaning modded, use) and I have got the avatars to almost work. If you pick one the Station will change to say Admiral Mayson/Risner, but doesn't complete it and go to the full Outpost.

Anyone got any ideas on what I missed?

I would say the stock one has some kind of automatic replaceweapon.... But I wouldn't know. I've done my fair share of poking (added some ships/heros and played around), but not with the avatars. Yet

Sounds to me like you haven't modified all of the odf-files relevant for the avatars.
When I modded FO I also changed the Avatars and experienced similar problems. Checking the odf-files again solved them. There are more files involved than you might guess 

Hope I could help.

I figured out the problem. I used Basename in the Admiral stations.

Nice ships, are they seperate FO ships? I have an alternate Norway and Excelsior-II, but can only do those two. They have the hull and light colors inverted, but the wibndows have been kept the same or they wouldnt glow.

yh there not fo ships there for an a1 mod a friend of mine is working on

A1 doesn't work for me, the ships are streched across the map and naccelle lights disappear. It's painfully slow lag makes the game even worse.

Is it possible for FO ships to be converted into seperate ships?

Create a seperate ship with different textures. Basicly, copy the SOD and set it to use an alternate set of textures.

Could you? I have a program that should, but almost any sod file is bent out of shape if I try to use it, and it saves those new, not so pretty looks.

you better ask the FO team if we can alter there textures but shouldnt be a problem (altho i can not do animation so those may not be done (i'll try hex edititing them as that sometimes works
