Too Bad. I have just finished RF. It has kind of a lame ending, though plenty of fighting. i manage well in most instances with either a Orion or a Demon.

For the Dralthi try 2 Lasers and 1 Particle Gun (center).

Gothri shines with 2 Particle guns and 2 Ion cannons.

The tri-meson layout didn't work for me either , not enough killing power.

I tryed the gun combinations but they just did not work for me. it is just me and not the ships. i will just stick with Demon and Orion.

Is it possible to get the Gothri before completing the pr campaign, i am currently at mission 2 or 3 for tayla?

Though i probably would have to start a new game since the kilrathi dislike me because of all the ships of theirs i've destroyed.

Also, what's the cost of the Gothri?

2.5 million - you'll have to hack the master_parts_list.csv to make it buyable. I understand wanting it that badly, it's probably the best fighter in PR.

Ok..i just looked at that file and don't have a clue where to start. Too much beer perhaps?
I would appreciate it if you could tell me what i need to modify or link me to something that will.

And the same question for modifying the upgrade space of the Gothri as ijuin suggested.

Thanks in advance.

I could modify a new master_parts_list & units.csv file for you but I want something in return

Gosshawk and I are going through the WCU ships for a Kilrathi medium or heavy fighter. We need someone to test how it does in PR 1.2, if you volunteer you'll have two Kilrathi ships available for play - the Gothri and whatever the other ship is.

Sure i'll test the ship, not like i can't make backups of the files. But, just so you know i haven't been playing PR all that long and i've never been a "guinea pig" before. Do you want my email address in a PM, or are you goig to post it?

No problem, we need a fresh eye & someone not too familiar with the game to test the ship's viability. Will post the files here fyi.

Welcome aboard *g*, you can give us feedback on the Gothri in regular PR.

Other ship is a bonus, if you do get to drive that I'd be interested in a comparison vs. the Gothri.

Onyx, check the Demon difficulties thread on how to alter the master_parts_list.csv so you can buy the Gothri. I'll attach the file both there and on the other thread.

I've noticed that when piloting the gothri i have no cockpit(yes, i've tried F1 repeatedly), is this normal?

yes, in fact the WCU gothri uses the Dralthi cockpit. Guess no one has gotten around to making one for it.

Gosshawk · Post by **Gosshawk** » Sat Aug 05, 2006 7:38 pm

Switch the cokpit to the Salthi if you want, the Dralthi cockpit only makes sense for the Dralthi line as you can see the twin lasers and tips of the wings.

OnyxPaladin · Post by **OnyxPaladin** » Sun Aug 06, 2006 6:51 am

How would i go about doing that? I tried copying and pasting the salthi-hud.spr file into the gothri folder and changing the name, but that didn't work.

Gosshawk · Post by **Gosshawk** » Sun Aug 06, 2006 4:29 pm

There's a colomn for the cockpit file. Change gothri-cockpit.cpt to salthi-cockpit.cpt.

The .hud image is the pictur that displays on your hud when you target that ship

Thanks, good thing i backed the file up.

I've modified all three unit lines(gothri/gothri blank/gothri template) in the units.csv file under the cockpit column. But i still have no cockpit, what am i doing wrong?

Gosshawk · Post by **Gosshawk** » Wed Aug 09, 2006 4:33 am

PM me your units.cvs and I'll take a look at it.

Solon Halwinder · Post by **Solon Halwinder** » Wed Aug 09, 2006 6:27 pm

I was taking a look at units.csv, trying to figure out where the variable is for the upgrade capacity (on the Gothri,) and I can't find it. Can someone tell me what line I'm looking for?

(Or does it have to be done with Excel? I'm doing it with Wordpad because I don't have space on my HD to install Excel.)

If you still need someone for testing this, I'd be willing to. I have almost every ship available (even a Heatseeker Missile ^_^) and am getting a bit bored.

I'll try my best to come out with the user mod v.1.1 alpha this weekend. The Raptor is very close to what I feel it should be, but I still need to include the Krant.

If there are any crafts to test I will gladly test them for you as I have up-graded to PR 1.2, though you will have to e-mail them to me as i can't log onto the forum from any other computer and our internet will not cope with a download of that size. I hope to be of some use.

Patch 1.1a posted in other thread Micheal - let me know if there are any problems with it or getting it.

micheal_andreas_stahl · Tue Aug 15, 2006 10:12 am

Where is this download? And what ships is it?

Check out the second page of the "MOD: Privateer Remake 1.2 Parallel Universe 1.0" thread.

The message with the download starts out as :

"Here it is, finally Smile

Place Privateer.zip in your main Privateer directory - unzip, overwrite all.

Place units1/units2/units3.zip in the units subdirectory - unzip overwrite all.

Make sure to backup your critical files, better yet rename your old Privateer directory to something else then install another copy of Privateer - and do the install there."

It has the Hornet, Ferret, Drayman CVL, OrionMk2/Mk2b/Mk2H, TarsusMk2, Galaxy Hunter, Kilrathi Sartha and Kukhri (modified Gladius)

Other details can be found in the thread - the additional ships I'm looking over will be in the final version of this patch (about a week from now).

Send me all your comments in that thread - I would appreciate any feedback on the changes.

micheal_andreas_stahl · Thu Aug 17, 2006 11:31 am

I have downloaded the files and will back my files up then will add the ships in. Thanks

Let me know how it goes micheal, I'll be finalizing the new missile values this weekend and working in the cockpits and final ships

Once you install the patch, all the ship are there fyi (except the ones you've requested)
