Title: the lack of PF and Fighters for all races on SFC2EAW/OP
Post by: Bluefoxp on January 25, 2009, 07:12:23 pm

The Gorn/Lyan/Romulan use PF and no Fighters and every one else uses Fighters.

But SFB gives every one Fighters and PF.

But I found a mod that fix this problem.

First, welcome to the boards, and second Can you link to this mod? I'm assuming It's a modded Shiplist.

This is Rocket Rod's old mod.  It's well done.  Just be warned, do not try and edit it with Shipedit; the carriers and tenders are listed twice.  The game reads the shiplist from two different directions.  The carriers and tenders not supported are tacked on at the end of the shiplist as if they belonged to a race that does support them.  I wonder why nobody cared about this before Activision got the publishing rights.  I guess we were all too busy having fun.

Yeah I notice that after look thought the shiplist and see that F-BBP is in the Lyan and Fed list. I guess that how he did it to make it work.

Just remember, using a modded shiplist will only work for single player. Attempting to use a shiplist or ftrlist that is not common to everyone playing in a multyplayer game will provide a cheat message.

The common shiplist for most servers and/or Gamespy Arcade game play is the OP+ v4.0.

If you want an easy installer to get all available content in 1 place with latest scripts and most widely used shiplist would be my OP Enhancement Pack v5.1

You do have to double check the start in path of the desktop shortcuts to ensure that they point to Program Files folder on a 32 bit machine.. I think some shortcuts that I included points to Program Files (x86) folder which is used on a 64 bit system.

Also make sure you launch from the StarfleetOP.exe game file and not the Start Menu shortcut or the SFCOP.exe.. the SFCOP.exe is extremely bugged causing keyboard, shiplist and fighter problems in game.
