Wow. Very good tips and points, thanks. Some of these could be a game breaker for me.

I am like started-ish, but its just discovering the game and experimenting yet. If i start for good i will implement some of the advice like making the start a bit more difficult with mods, and the hq thing.

Well, yeah. Apparently i should go ahead with the playthrough from what your feedback...

My only hesitation at this point is that the progression may be too fast as some say. Should this be a concern? I dont like endless grind but i dont prefer too fast progression either.

So do you recommend i dont start the game yet then?

Because X games require a lot of time investment, i want to plan my start very carefully, as you may understand. I am experienced with X games and i put a lot of time into X3 AP. I already went through various guides, watched videos, checked out here and there to get a feel about X4. There is very v...

Racism is racism. If the mod was named differently one could defend it. But it is named 'space JUSTICE' and it only removes blacks from the game. On top of that it has the wording 'diversity' in the name. From whatever angle you approach this, it screams to be a white supremacist/racist reactionary ...

i cant unpack spk file to get to the scripts inside. i found a spk tool at crycrows site, but i cant find download link for that tool anywhere on the website.

will this work with x3 ap xrm installations ?

since xrm already has some bbs stuff, will this work with xrm ?

is this compatible with xrm ?

ircwhore links are dead. cant get the map revealer script/.

It was due to x3 editor saving the pbd file with .txt extension. I corrected it and now model loads, allowed docking of m6+, allowed docking of a TS (superfreighter) with it, accepted a khaak fighter into its internal bay. An additional superfreighter and an additional m6 were not able to dock thoug...

well. no go. 'docking denied'.

I just saved the tships.pck opened from vfs to same place from vfs.

specifying ships\Yaki\Yaki_TL_scene_m6docking in tships.pck didnt work apparently, for yaki Ryu model is missing in the game.

Ok now i will try replacing the lines from split elephant scene file below : P 17; B ships\props\tstp_extdock_dummy; N ships\props\tstp_extdock_dummy; // idx 17 { 0x2002; -61071; 5142; -157437; 0.000000; 0.000000; 0.000000; 0.000000; -1; 1; } // 0 P 18; B ships\props\tstp_extdock_dummy; N ships\prop...

Check the path in the title bar. Your description of your process is correct, but something is not working as expected. Only you can figure out what that is. Alright this clears it out : I have checked x3 editor, it had profile for x3 tc. I created a profile for x3 ap and then followed the path to ...

Paul just told you. You are looking at the wrong scene. With x3 editor : Open from vfs, vfs - types - TShips - Elephant under model tab it shows : Ship scene : ships\split\split_TL_scene After that i go to : open from vfs : vfs - objects - ships - split - split_TL_scene.pbd thats the scene file i p...

Here is split elephant scene file I do not see an external dock in the scene you posted. Just follow Paul's original advice to use an external dock from another ship (Panther). Or, you know... follow the tutorial. ;) How to add Docking Bays to Any Ship (Part 2) Then how can this be happening : adva...

Yep. Then it is correct. so ONE thing in the below text allows M6 docking. but i cant tell what is that. Im including dummies.txt below too. Im sure there is a link in between the docking types shown in the split elephant scene file with one of these here, but i still wasnt able to find which one. ...

Im looking from virtual file sytem from under objects - ships - split Don't do that... use the scene path specified in TShips instead. The scene path specified is this one : ships\split\split_TL_scene I get here by opening ships.pck from virtual filesystem, going to elephant, and checking its model...

The split elephant scene file i posted was named split_TL_scene.pbd and it ends at #15, exactly as i posted. There are other parts in the virtual file system for elephant, these are : split_TL.pbb with content : BOB1INFO$PATH: F:\SRC\X3.5\X3\objects\ships\split\split_TL.bob SRC: \\Ego2008\f_old\SRC\...

Elephant docks Advanced Heavy Osprey externally, under one of its wings. It landed under left wing, neatly tucked under the wing quite nice.
