Editing Missions and/or skiping Oxford 3

Post by Bruxelles »

Can someone please tell me how to edit the Oxford 3 mission or any mission for that matter?

I have found lots of commnets of people, saying to edit the demons to Talons, skip it, etc. But no one actually every says how to do it.

I would be grateful for your help, and maybe I am just stupid for not finding it, but I really just want to get pass Oxford 3 so I can get on with the story line, which is the key item for me (not have the greatest fighting skills).

Before commenting, yes, I know this is cheating, as I will never claim glory on this forum after posting this message, and this game is not multiplayer, why should one not cheat?

Thank you very much for your help in advance.
A old guy with a job and wife, and no time for trying to beat Oxford 3 without cheating. :cry:

- First of all, make a backup of the units.csv file located in the /Privateer/units folder. Save the backup on your desktop.
- Now open /Privateer/units/units.csv with Excel.
- Search the line beginning with "talon.blank".
- Copy all values from the line's columns B to IV
- Search the 3 lines beginning with "demon".
- Replace all values with the talon values, again from B to IV
- All Demons will still look like Demons, but will have the abilities, armament, - speed, shields etc. of talons.
- Don't forget to replace your original units.csv after you're done

or (easier):

- Make a backup of /Privateer/modules/campaigns.py
- open /Privateer/modules/campaigns.py with notepad
- Use the search/replace function
- Replace "demon" with "talon"
- All ships originally spawning as Demons during campaign missions will be Talons.
- Again, replace with the backup when you're done

Hope this will help

I simply changed from three ships, to two, and it made the mission seem to easy.....
