Topic: Full Name in Shiplist.txt (Read 2415 times)

I am creating my own shiplist. Everything works fine now but the name of the ship is not displayed in the Vessel Library. Instead ??? is displayed. I have changed the text in the column Full Name of Shiplist.txt so I assume this has something to do with it. Does anyone have an idea what I have done wrong?

Yeah, the entry in shiplist is an abbreviated reference to the real thing in strings.txt.
eg: New Ship entry in shiplist.txt -> Totally New! Improved! Have to See it to believe it! in strings.txt

ie:
Shiplist:
MB w/ Comm Pods
Strings.txt:
|MB w/ Comm Pods|Mobile Base with Commando Pods

How could we get a personnally modified Ship Names list to play in the campaigns? Can seem to figure it out, right now they only appear when I am using the Single-player skirmish

Go to "MetaAssets\ServerProfiles\SinglePlayer\ShipNames.gf". From what I've been able to tell you can change/add shipnames to the empires but not the pirate cartels. The cartels seem to use the shipnames from the neutral Orions only. I haven't really done a lot of editing to this file though to really be able to give you something definative. As always, back up the original

Your modded shiplist has to be in both Assets\Specs and in MetaAssets

it will read from the strings file then..
