Need help by space relations

Post by rlaan »

In vegastrike the planets are so gigantic, but in privateer the planets are freaky mini.

i think it must be a multipler for the dimensions??

i now that i can in every system makes the planets 10x bigger and the distances 10x higher, but then i must set the radar distances of any ship and other stuff higher... its a little bit much.

do you know a multipler?

Yeah the planets and stations are larger but i think it has to do with canon.

IIRC the planets were made larger but it was put back to the origanal size.

There is no multiplier, planet radi are defined as hard numbers. You can compare them with WCU values to get better radi. However, cargo missions can not be completed then - you need to be at about 5000 clicks to the planet center to fulfill them.

Es gibt keinen Faktor, der Planetenradius ist in den system-files als nummern definiert. WCU bietet realistischere Werte. Dies führt jedoch dazu, dass man Frachtmissionen nicht mehr beenden kann - man muss bis auf 5000m an das Planetenzentrum heranfliegen. Wenn er zu groß ist, geht das nicht mehr.

Unless you can change the mission distense you can do nothing to the planets. IIRC you can do all that.

It's German. Are we not meant to stick to English?

i have found a multipler for the relations in the vegastrike.config "star_system_scale". and a multiper for the far_stars. In Space are stars... realy! ^^
i have made a landing 1 Minute long with a centurion. the planets have now athmospheric "fog", i have imported rings. steltek brain-planets. overworket the planetary textures, hi-res-clouds... maby 30 flyable ships, good balancing, kilrathi dreadnoughts. mass battles with over 30 Ships (extra balanced, naturaly ^^), any secret systems, you can switch the cokpits to vektor (vegastrike like) or bitmap (Privateer like). i have change all npc to hi-res movistars ^^, Meg Ryan as gudin. all bases imported from vegastrike. overworked cargo missions... overworked hunter missions (up to 1 million credits for a mission. 10 new weapons, 5 new rokets, shelton slide, the first tarsus (tarsus.begin) has only 1 roketlouncher and 1 laser, but a cloaking device. new spacestations, new planet typs (gas-minig bases, asteroid bases, ocean worlds, automatic turrets, 360x360° turrets, killer-drones, all ship textures in hi-ress (not that blurry stuff of WC), ship garage .... and and and... hunderts of hours working in 2 Years...

the heavyst ships are the centurion_mk2, the quicksilver, orion_mk2, the kilrathi Lancelot and the interdiction-cruiser redeemer. the controls and speed and masses for the flyable capships overworket... now realy useable. it has he compactness of privateer, the original map of privateer + 15 secret systems, and the flair, controls and grafix from vegastrike

now i cleaning the directorys for all the "copy-of-*" stuff, and the time has come for the first relase of my Privat-Strike.

debugging is compleat... 19x compleat tests. the only bug i have found an not fixed is, somtimes fly a texture as a debris from exploding ships in space... i have no idea what that is. but its dosnt matter...

thanx to all for the help, also in other treads...
i hope you lock then my mod ^^ (sorry, is is not compatibel to WCU or PU)

Jaja, das alte Problem mit filefront. Bedauerlicherweise kommt man da nicht mit einem normalen FTP-Programm rein. Ich nehme an du benutzt ein Modem... Ich habe damit mal 20 MB hochgeladen und hatte 3 timeouts. Besser du splittest deine Archive in richtig kleine Teile...

Sorry guys, just helping rlaan a bit, I hope you don't mind.
