How do I change what model a ship uses (eg. If I want the Saber Class to look like Enterprise-A)? (I have a new model i want to try)

There are a few steps involved.. but easy to do...

things you need,  

SFC 3 Model  Tools kit


ok.. here we go with the changing..

using your ships above as an example...

#1, go into your assets/models folder in the SFC 3 folder, rename Saber folder to Saber 1 ... this will keep the game from pulling this ship

#2, rename your EntA (Enterprise-A) folder to Saber and put it into your Assets/Models directory where Saber 1 is located (do not replace.. just add folder to the rest of them there)

#3, go inside your Saber folder (EntA) and rename the *.mod file to Saber.mod and rename the *_BRK.mod file to Saber_BRK.mod

#4, the ship should be made for SFC 3 already, so it is now just getting the game to recognize the glow effects...... so in your Saber Folder (EntA) Delete the *.x files

#5, using the SFC 3 Model Tools Kit, use the recacher program, and load the Folder of Saber (entA) and click OK... (Do not select any specific files, just select the folder to where it is open showing the *.mod files)

#6, after the ship recaches, close the recacher (an error message pops up, just ignore it) and try game.. your ship should be in place in the game now...

Hope that this information helps....

if you don't have the SFC 3 Model Tools kit, there are several places to get it from... I have it on my site in a SFC utility Kit... but my kit also includes the SFC 3 Hardpoint Editing Utility, the Model Attribute Editor for SFC 3, the FMSE for SFC II EAW and the original SFC, SFC, SFC II and SC III Ship Edit utilities.. and a couple of other things in one package....

the page where mine is located for DL is http://www.nightsoftware.com/effhq/scr2.html and it is at the very bottom of the page..

Hope that this information helps
