Community Extended Mod Pack {EMP} v1.4 & 2.01

Post by **Cycrow** » Thu, 6. Apr 06, 04:38

yes, you name it 09, and its 10.dat that follows

or, you could use the script manager, package each of those mods up and install them, and the manager will rename them automatically in sequence for u

Thanks Cycrow. But for a Noob like me, Installing and uninstalling scripts is no problem using the installer but using the packager to pack a mod then installing it so the files go to the right folders (in this case the X3 dir) is something I haven't worked out. I tried but no luck.

Does that mean then (if I ever work it out) I could pack Imps Callback Mod and instal it with the script installer?

thats correct yeah, you can add mod files, and mods like that are pretty simple

if u want the emp, try http://ircwhore.co.uk/x3/scripts/emp.spk

to package up the others, you just enter the script name and author in the packager, select the mod check button, goto add files and select the cat and dat file to add, and save package, that will create ur package with the mods in, then just install those as you would any other spk script

New patch, need to rename the EMP mod to 08.cat/dat, as the 1.4.02 didn't change Twares at all, so EMP is still good.

Is the Xtended Mod compatible with the EMP Mod? - Yes, in fact the EMP mod is now built in.

so...if i downloaded the EMP mod and the xtended mod will i make my game unstable?

winrar is just an extraction program like winzip.

you download the program and install it, google winrar to find it.
once installed, all you have to do is double click on the rar file and it will open up, then just goto extract and select the correct directory.

alertnativly, you can get the SCript manage available fro mthe stickies here, install that, and get the spk version of emp, Here and install it via the Script Manager

Not always a save bet when Ego puts out a new patch, the #'s of the mod would have to be changed to prevent overwriting.

Is what you have to watch for when using a 'false patch'

Is #440 still available? Looking at the main page, it appears so.

Can't remember the CUSTOM_# off hand, I just know it was index 440 (last one on the list with "sorted" unchecked).

New wares in use by my updated plugin:

Code: Select all

101 :  28;0;0;0;0;101;10253;0;35014;1;1;0;35014;-100;0;0;SS_WARE_SW_CUSTOM1_2;

115 : 28;0;0;0;0;115;10393;0;324115;1;1;0;324115;-100;0;0;SS_WARE_SW_CUSTOM15_2;

I don't see them listed as being in-use already, so hopefully I haven't made a mistake.

Thanks for the EMP - Great work.

This is a small chance plea that anyone else has had this as I posted about this in the main forum a few weeks back and got no luck.
I love using all of your scripts Cycrow as you know, but for some of them this EMP is required, but every time I install it , it seems to trigger off a problem that there was with one of the earlier versions of the game (1.0 - 1.2 I think) where upon starting a game there would be certain ships mainly TS's that showed up Red even though the race is a friendly one (Argon, Boron) {and before anyone tells me to check my race relation settings in the Global Commands Id best point out Im a veteran of the X games as Cycrow and others will tell you}. Im not saying its down to the EMP but it does seem to happen when I have it on my current installation. I just decided to start a fresh game and its happening, I start in AP and plenty of blue icons floating about the place and then some RED ones which are Argon or Boron TS's ?

Anyone else come across this - //Stroppy mode On : and im 99% (dont believe in the 100% thing) sure its not to do with my in-game settings or actions so no nooby answers please //Stroppy mode off

Post by **Cycrow** » Fri, 12. May 06, 23:29

well, EMP shouldn't really effect ships and turn them red, so not eterlikly sure what might be causing it.

do you have any other mods running other than EMP ?
and how did you install emp, did you download the zip file and just extract it to the X3 directory ?

if you did, this possibly overright the latest patch file as they share the same name because EMP is loaded as a fake patch.

you can install it manually by extracting it elsewhere and rename it, or you could get the spk version and install that through the installer, it will rename it for you.
but before installing, i would also reinstall the patch incase it did overright the files
