Do we need to download this if we aren't play ISC or will we get a bad CRC check and where do we unzip it to .assetts.specs/fighterlist?Thanks


Yes you need to download it.

If it is a new shiplist and fighter list (I think it is)  you need to put them in the specs file.

I did some testing in single player, I bought a F-CVA and discovered it would let me buy both fighters and PFs for it. In game, my fighterbay shows both fighters and PFs, I can launch them all, but the PF disappears. The PF remains showing as active on the shuttle screen, but is no where to be found in game, nor can it be recovered.

A general statement to all:

Thats because the CVA doesnt carry PF's. You can launch them, but they wont appear in the game. Period.

Same with PF races. If you try and equip a Tender with ftrs, you will be limited to 1 ftr, just as you can only carry 1 PF, and it may not even show in mission.

Bottom line is that if its a carrier, u need to use ftrs and a PF tender must use PF's.

If you don't, then u may launch an illegal loadout and find it may not appear. ;)

One other thing to remember is that in supply dock, there is one clickable button for BOTH ftes and PF's. So you will see them ALL listed. Choose what you are supposed to cary ONLY.

Well, it is Tueday near 8 pm est.  I have tried the GORN carriers.  They show up as having fighters like they should.  I forgot to take better ones on the first mission and had 8 crappy fighters, but I did have them.  I lost a set of 4, so next round into the spacedocks for repairs and new fighters.  The fighters did not appear in the list of availability for replacements, but only the PF listing.  As soon as I clicked on the PF listing, it gave me this Description:'  Ship Not Found".  Then it went on to remove all my fighters from my ship.  I tried a mission, and no fighters.  Returned to base, got a PF carrier type, went to load up on PF but got message:"Ship Not Found".    I had thought that perhaps it was because I did not have proper files loaded, but then again the game would not have let me play, or told me I was using possilble cheat files, which it did not. 

Hope you guys can fix this.   BTW great map and game so far.

Ahh sh*t. I really need to know the SHIP designation you were using.

Gorn Moderators, make sure you look into this b4 we launch this weekend.

I have seen the Fighters part is fixed for the Gorns and I believe a thanks to DLBR or some such person who was working on the system last night is in order.  Sorry if I forget your actual name or did it incorrectly.  Unfortunately last night I tried a DNDF which has mechlinks for 2 PF, but the PF slot still told me "ShipNotFound".  I dont know if he has had time to try that out or not, hope to find out later tonight.

Actually just looked at the shiplist.
DNDF has FYA of 9, Gorns dont get INT's until 19 (I think)
Simple FYA fix
