Title: Fighter Problems with SFCOP
Post by: Scorpion14 on March 09, 2010, 07:51:28 pm
So I finally got around to installing and starting up SFC OP, lured in by X-xhips and new weapons and whatnot, so I set out to replacing the models. Ive replaced pretty much all of them in the game with ones from canon and from SFB and Fasa and whatever.

But Ive found out that now, after Ive done all of this, I cant use a ship with fighters, in skirmish anyway. When I load up a ship, doesnt matter what race, and I get to the part where you choose what fighters to put on the ship, the button isnt there. I cant load fighters and I cant understand what the deal with this is. When I did this with the first two games, I never had any kind of problem like this. I didnt even do anything like changing the ship stats, just the models and the some of the skins.

Im not even sure if this is the right board, and please move it if its not appropriate here.

When this happened before, I installed the 2500-2552 patch, and afterwards, although it reset all the ship settings back to the original models, not the ones in the disc, but to the ones I outright replaced. Afterwards, I was able to load fighters in the game. Since I hadnt backed up the shiplist, I replaced everything again, and I had the problem again. I was using the ShipEdit for EAW because for me its easier to replace ships for me when I have the pictures of the ships as a guide, although I do have the OP one that doesnt display the ships when I start to work on the various pirate cartels.

Since I havent done anything but change the models, I have no idea what Ive done wrong here. Can anyone help?

Find "StarFleetOP.exe" in your OP installation folder. Copy it. Paste it as a shortcut on the desktop. Use this shortcut to launch the game.

Ah, that worked. Thanks so much, I was worrying there. Turns out, it also works when you just click on the exe thats just in the folder, too.

Funny thing I noticed, the only fighters I can load up are basic patrol fighters. Not like say, advanced assault fighters. No matter what I choose to arm the ship with.

No problem. Glad you got it sorted out. Fighters are an important part of the game.
