Do what you want man, you've still got my support. Majority of the fans don't care about Disney anyway.

Can't wait to test.

Absolutely amazing. Keep up the good work!

Oh my god Mik that looks amazing! Do you have any plans to overhual the weapons like in x3? Can you share any details on your plans for capital ship interiors and balance?

This works actually. And since logistical in game items like turrets and engines are bounded by bones designated on a model, Mik should have no trouble adding them to existing models. They're literally keywords parented to a point on the model, the game takes care of the rest really.

Some guy got the Taranis capital ship into X4, you should ask him.

Absolutely can't wait. Already spent a fair amount of time in X4. The module system is going to make customizing ships a breeze.

Ohhh boy, X4 for November 30th. From what i've heard online at Egosoft, and from a curator, X4 is going to be easier to modify than previous X titles Mik. It should be as easy as drag and drop. Ships are packaged similar to X3 and now you can even add customization nodes, because from my understanding virtually every ship can be customized in some way. The new 3d map tech looks amazing and it's nice that we don't have to load anymore between sectors which means there is some form of memory compression, we might see a new load on demand system in place for larger ships. Speaking of larger ships, it also looks like the Executor SSD might actually be able to function because of the new weapon system. I think weapons are no longer tied to that ****** 14km limit.

If you are successful in doing this it will be easier to port over everything to bannerlord on release.

This is wonderful. A focus on PVE is what warband needs. There is much work to be done.

Go for it if you need the money we are here to help you!

There really isn't a campaign for the imperials. In X3 AP the focus of the story was on the argon alliance rather than the terrans. Terrans had their spotlight in x3:tc. I kind of wish Mik would make a custom campaign and just ditch the old one as it's not very "Star Warsy". Hell, he could even make up his own story. Maybe a "what if" scenerio where the rebels lost the final battle against the empire and got pushed back.

Alright Mik, i've tested the newest version. And i've gotta say you've really outdone yourself. The detailing on the Nebula Class Destroyer is amazing, and the new balancing for some of the ships is great.

Oooh yeah, can't wait.

No problem, i figured out what was wrong. Missing the actual updated libraries. Was running on an outdated version, thanks in advance.

Alright, i don't know what exactly happened but the codea libraries seem to have broke at least for me. Not sure if i installed them correctly as the tutorial i read was in German.

That's a lot of firepower!

Ohohoho. I know what this is for ;)

Take your time mik, we can wait ;p.

You need both TC and AP to run this mod. Do not buy the pack with both of those through steam because it contains different versions of files that the mod uses, and it will not run.

No way, that's Vanna's ship from starfighter isn't it? Haven't seen that in a while.

Mik let me know that the turrets in x3 are limited. If you wanted more guns for your ship then i would propose three variants of each laser in the game. Lets take a Kx10 for example.
Kx10 Version 1 = A turret or gun that spawns 1 laser.
Kx10 Version 2 = A turret or gun that fires multiple lasers in succession.
Kx10 Version 3 = A turret or gun that fires multiple laser in rapid succession.

Each version looses accuracy as it goes on but increases in rate of fire without any weight/class/energy changes. Just a thought. Obviously this wouldn't work for some weapons, but i would envision this working solely for ships that are supposed to have some some varying degree of weaponry that are severely lacking it.

Wait, is Codea already included in the installation? Strange, i have a version of Codea that i had planned to use with the mod.

Donated to help you. Grabbing a perk as well.

Nice to see you back Mik, i will have an updated bug list in the future for your review.

Woah. Can't wait to test out all the new ships. Thanks for accepting my start recommendation!

You're going to need to need more than 1 trader to gain substantial income. Try it this way.

Go to a station or complex somewhere, look at their asking prices for resources. Set your trader's home to that station and set it to sell for greatest price. Crystals and Microchips sell like crazy and give you about 50k-100k/in game hour. It's a good way to start out safe trading.

Also there's a mod for X3 called "OK traders" that acts as a mini universal trader.

Take your time Mik. If you don't feel like you're settled then take more time. I have a compiled list that a few players and myself have come up for more starts.

*Clone Wars Veteran.
Name: Marek Vance
Race: Argon/Rebel
Sex: Male, age 82.
Backstory: After Order 66 you abandoned your post as a clone pilot. You were the best the star corps had to offer in your modified Z-95 starfighter. You come back to the fight after many years of hiding among the bordering systems to try and to make amends for your past actions.

Starts with Z-95, 20,000 credits, 2 V19 escort fighters and 1 LAAT shuttle.

*Rogue Assassin Droid
Name: IG-90
Race/Make/Model: IG-Series Assassin Droid.
Backstory: You booted up aboard a Xenon scavenging vessel. It seems your last encounter has left you with your memory banks wiped completely. You quickly tap into the Xenon network to find that the AI has plans to integrate your assassin protocol into their hub network. You will not allow this, you fry the ship's central computer and take control of the ship. You have one clear objective now, take revenge on this competitive AI incursion.

Starts with: Any xenon N,M,L,XL,P,Q. 50,000 credits. Hated by Xenon.

I have more if you want me to send you the whole log.

Take the contents of the download and put them in the TC/AP main folder.

Alright thanks, the new beta is good. I've found no problems so far.
