Title: Can I use flagship in meele? Post by: Ahmed on April 23, 2011, 08:31:23 pm Hello. Thank you for your answers on previous questions.
I have a question again. Can I use flagship in meele? If answer is yes, how? ??? Title: Re: Can I use flagship in meele? Post by: Joss Rand on April 24, 2011, 11:30:37 am Long ago, before UQM was released with the current license, I remember someone was able to make a .shp file for the Precursor flagship and put it on the Pages of Now and Forever. I've lost it since, but I remember it was the ship as when you start the game (perhaps with even less antimatter thrusters/turning jets) -ie: underpowered, underarmed, etc-.
If there's a way to have a flagship as the one you've much later in the game -with Hellbores, point-defenses, all engines, etc-., let me know; it would be fun to kill Avatars with it.

I would like to try to make a .shp file for the flagship. Can you tell me is there any .shp file maker and editor? I have installed Wine so it can be a Windows executable.

Post by: Joss Rand on April 25, 2011, 02:14:54 am There were (and I'm not sure if still are) some ship editors in the Pages of Now and Forever; one changed ship stats (as well as captain's names) and the other the graphics. Some people made with it fun ships using the already existing as chassis -ie: the Tardis from Doctor Who using the Skiff-; I'll have to check the page to see if they're still. there and download them.

Send me a hyperlink where they can be downloaded if you find them. Title: Re: Can I use flagship in meele? Post by: oldlaptop on April 26, 2011, 12:37:52 am .SHP files (and editors thereof) won't do you any good with UQM. Those were for the original SC2, UQM's ship data is all in the source code.

Can I use Code::Blocks IDE and GNU GCC Compiler for compiling and modifying the source code? Title: Re: Can I use flagship in meele?

Thanks for letting me know. That may explain why they're no more on the Star Control website. Title: Re: Can I use flagship in meele?

I'm pretty sure the reason they aren't there anymore has to do with the move to their new host a few years back. They still don't have all the old content up again. |
