I was able to edit the scaffold and researchstation from HWRM with the current cold fusion editor and it didnt crash on me. SO editing dockpaths works but not importing OBJ meshes.

So you could edit the tai_researchstation with it to let ships like fighters come out.
It didn’t crash on you now, but with the HOD format change you will have to convert it one day anyway and that will require the BitVenom’s DAE -> HODOR pipeline. You won’t be able avoid it, it’s just a matter of time when it’ll happen.
Well, this is a live game so changes are going to happen. If only they happened sooner.
Thats why i can always recopy the HWRM hod
Well good to hear, CFHodEd might work for this part. Then I can make this changes and and build the gamemode around it.
When the format changes will come, there’ll probably be another solution or I moved the gamemode over to EVE or Nexus mod.
I wanted to start the gamemode with default HW2 objects, so it would something that everyone could use.
Thank you all for your input!! ^^

Hi Mr thi, good to see you around.
The best thing is to wait the devs release the next patch and see where things go from there. The Devs are willing to make more resources, but can’t make promises. At the same time, almost everything done so far is focused on fundamental stuff that affects all modders and all players. Maybe after that, more tools come out.
Check what Trade Routes had turn into, in terms of concepts.
Cheers!

Yes, that is very true.
I thought that was dead! I hope you are reviving it…
Ah jea ^^ … cool to see you are still working on it.
We will hopefully get more of this stuff in the future. ^^ … the new per ship scripting makes something like that so much more easy. =D. Create a ship write a full script what it should do. Add it to the map … ready.
A very good addition would be the ability to add CPU players / neutral players to the map. I don’t know - is this possible currently? Without that we will always have to sacrifice at leasst one player slot for a “map player”. Default HW2 was not able to… That#s definetly something that they could try to get for us. =D …
I think Evil Jedi, B5 mods crew and serveral others would love to see this ability too.

Was able to finish the basics =D. But help is still welcome.
In the future, I am sure most if the annoying problems and long workarounds will be simpler to make and I am sure your mod will be good.
you musta used some wizard magic on your hod cause i just tried editing the dockpaths via CFHOD on a ship i added to the game and it crashed on load with the
Unknown basich mesh version (0) – FATAL EXIT – basicmesh/589:! --stack trace–
error

the Pre-Release or the latest release?
I used v4.1.0.0 (latests release)
But I think the newer one will work too.
That is good to hear.
