Outdated Xan Union Corvette v2.1 - Unstable Winter

The clean install worked perfectly! Thanks so much for your help; you've created an awesome mod. c:

 

Great to hear, it's weird the kind of issues that crop up sometimes.

 

When ever I try and extract it into my mods folder, nothing happens. I've tried looking through all the races and the ship isn't assigned to any of them. Do I have to code the ship in? ( I am brand spanking new off the block and have never been all too adept to modding, sorry )

 

No, you're not required to code anything or stuff like that.
Just double check that after extracting it, it doesn't look like / mods / xan union corvette / xan union corvette / ships.
It's happened a few times before.

It's supposed to go mods/ xan union corvette / ships

 

Nice design towards this mod.

 

Thanks, always nice to hear that people like it.

 

it wont work for me

 

Is there another / Xan Union Cargo Corvette / folder inside of that one?
Because it's supposed to be mods / Xan Union Corvette / . As opposed to mods / Xan Union Corvette / Xan Union Corvette /

 

Does it work with vanilla multiplayer?

 

As long as they haven't changed anything since last I looked at it; Yes and No.

Yes, in that it actually works and is playable in multiplayer.
No, in that they won't be able to see the ship graphics, only the interior/blocks.

Only way to have it work properly is if other people have it installed as well, and to the same race as you installed it to.

 

When I try to launch the game with this it says it was expecting furious koala and not the current version

 

Are you in fact playing on Furious Koala?
Because that's an older version, it came out in January.
This mod's been updated with Enraged Koala in mind, which came out in February.

If you specifically want to play on Furious Koala for some reason, I can dig up a slightly older version of the ship for you, so that you can play with it.

 

I'm not playing on furious Koala but I get a message that comes up saying it was expecting furious Koala

 

Are you on a nightly or unstable build, maybe? Haven't heard of that error before.

There is one of the older versions, specifically the one for Furious Koala, see if that helps.

 

I have a problem. When installing the ship into another race (the Ponex, to be precise) the starting gear changed. Instead of the Ponex gear, it was the Glitch gear. Anyone know how to fix that?

 

you'll have to substitute the ship files into the ship folder in the ponex mod, not install the mod directly. Assuming you're doing that, there should be a ship.config or something that specifies what starting loot to put in the shiplocker. You'll need to change that to whatever name the ponex mod uses for it's starting treasurepool.

 

Anonfox123 was right on target. In the ship's folder there's a dropship.structure file, open that with notepad, notepad++ or any other program like it.
Now just scroll down, or search for shiplocker, and you'll find this.

Code:

 {
      "value" : [0, 255, 0, 255],
      "foregroundBlock" : false,
      "backgroundBlock" : true,
      "backgroundMat" : "apexshipwall",
      "object" : "apexshiplocker",
      "objectParameters" : {
        "treasurePools" : [ "glitchStarterTreasure" ],
        "level" : 1,
        "unbreakable" : true
      }

Then just change the treasurePools name "glitchStarterTreasure" into the name of your race's start loadout.
It would be smart to double check that name from the mod race's default ship, to make sure that you get the right gear.

And like most ship-edits, you'll have to generate a new ship / character to test it.

 

I really want to use this mod, but I keep getting runtime errors. Can't even get the game to boot. Only other mods currently installed is Starbound crew and Creative mode. Any suggestions or known conflicts?

 

No to either, but I'd suggest you uninstall all mods, and then try to re-enable them one at a time, restarting the game multiple times to figure out what's messing it up.
I'm fairly sure it's not the ship, because even corrupt ships only mess up the game when you load them / load a character or create a character, they don't prevent the game from starting.

Good luck in figuring it out, although you'd probably find more help in the threads for those two other mods.

e: No known conflicts, no, atleast none that anyone has made me aware of.

 

The other mods work installed without the Xan corvette installed. I guess I'm just having trouble locating the conflict. Corvette mod works without those two mods as well. Well, I appreciate the input, dude.

Edit: The conflict seems to be with the "Your Starbound Crew" Mod...
