If your talking about a ship in the invalid ships file of SFC3, the fix is simple. You assigned a hardpoint in the DefaultLoadOut that isn't available in the DefaultCore. Go searching though the LoadOut line for the ship in question, and figure out which hardpoint you assigned. If you added a cloak to a ship, check to make sure that you have BridgeHP:1:2 in the Core.

thankssome times the ships dont appear in game. Even tho both files read excatly the same info. The ship wont appear in the invalid ships txt. But it just wont appear ion game.

So in the file it could read

galaxy
armada
galaxy x
dawn star
paramount
soverigen

but the Galaxy X and armada wont appear. This useally happens after ive edited the file tho. any ideas?

Check all your ships to make sure they are not showing up as a Varriant. If they are, just check and you'll find that you have to ships with the same ClassName (IE Fed-Dreadnaught2) If you have two ships that have that ClassName used in the Loadout, then they will show up as varriants of each other. Just need to change one of them to read something different, and make sure it matches with the line on the Core

they different dont read as Varients.

lets say

fed-battleship galaxy
fed-battleship2 Armada
fed-battleship3 Galaxy X
fed-battleship4 Soverigen

both files will read like this but only like 2 will show up

I'm out of ideas unless I can look at it. The only other thing would cause that would be spacing. If you use any program other than Excel, you have to make sure the spacing is absolutely correct. Excel is the bext program out there for this work, it automaticly does the spaces for you.

*edit* Also check the spelling on the model folders. The way you have it listed there, there is a space in "Galaxy X" Make sure the folder name reads the same. *Note: Spaces in folder names kinda screws things up.
