Has anyone ever tried to do this? It's waaaaaaaaay to hard! (I'm trying, and not succeeding, to add new OPTs.)

are you insane? that's nearly impossible and would drive you insane like it nearly did me before i chose to stop. The xwa editors are a pain, the only good one you have to pay for (unless you use the demo that doesn't let you do a darn thing the tutorial wants you to do). get Jedi Knight and Mots, you'll be able to edit those ALOT easier, and you won't need any patches, and I could help you.

Well, when I eventually get around to getting them...

So is there even a way to add all the stupid fan-made ships I found on the Net?

There are ways but ther's like a million steps to it.

There are two types of people who use the Force. There are the ones who let's the Force guide them and there are the ones who abuse the Force. Which one are you?

tell me about it...

 

It took me one hour and a half just to add a OPT to XWA, (the TIE Armageddon from DS), and still didn't work.

 

When in the hell is the NCA Version 2 patch coming out? It should've been out a week ago.

Never mind, I don't want to know. I tried to install the so-called "upgrade" (improved ship designs) and since then, I can't fly skirmish for more than five seconds without the game crashing. Uninstalling it didn't help either. Now I can't re-install it! I can't even access the launcher!

I don't suppose anyone has any advice...

Never mind, I just deleted all files not removed by the uninstalling and it worked fine! biggrin.gif (Stupid XWAU---nearly ruined the game!) I'll edit this thing yet!

Hah finally! The editor I had wasn't working (actually erasing files everytime it modified others), I switched editors, and now IT WORKS!

 

The droid starfighter rocks, btw. It's four laser cannons, two squeezed together on each side, are really powerful and fire very rapidly. Plus the craft is extraordiarily maneuverable. Unfortunately it has no shields, and the hull is so flimsy that my wingmates (after destroying some big ship) all get destroyed in the explosion!

I also added the Naboo fighter, all-around good craft but the lasers seem to be a little weak. Plus the Sith Infiltrator, looks cool but the weapons systems six fast-burnout lasers are all screwed up (it thinks they're ion cannons!) And where's the much-vaunted cloaking device?

Hey redwall, can you help me? When I edit the shiplist which is the second one I should delete once I've already setted up a first ship? When adding a shuttle/transport or a non fighter ship, should they still go in the "Reserved Fighter" slots? For the love of humanity help me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

May the Force screw you in everything you do except sex or should you get screwed? Stop you're confusing me.

Well...

 

[see the author's link below]

 

If you still have questions, I'm not exactly an expert---but maybe the people at the forum below can help. I'd give my advice but so far I've only used it for three or so days!

I've been to Darksaber's site, but it just describes how to add a fighter, is it the same for transports and stuff?

I've tried adding an E-Wing and when I play the simulator it crashes my game when it's loading the skirmish mission.

Make sure you modify everything. Could you be more specific as to your problem?

Forget it, I got it to work. I was editing the wrong EXE file. BTW I want to add a TIE Armagedden (shut up, it's your fault I can't spell) and a Colossus, what is the next thing I can replace?

Yes, absolutely. Filling those in won't get rid of any backdrops/planets/etc, so don't worry. Those slots are just...there. Unneccessary.
