Thanks man, BTW can you make that kestral you sent me have one F.R. laser and one Basic or Dual laser? Yeah, it's weak combo, but that's to balance the fact once you get the shield down, the F.R. laser becomes a mini-vulcan.RAD-82 wrote:Copied from blueprints.xml
Same error as last time, does not append.RAD-82 wrote:You can try this. I can't always test things to see if I did it right. It should have a basic laser, if I properly removed the Artemis and Burst Laser II.
I mean the FR mod, when I download that FRL file do I rename it to (whatever).ftl or do I take out the blueprints.xml.append and rename that?RAD-82 wrote:Instead of trying to remove the weapons and add the new ones, I just tried to overwrite them this time.Since you quoted my last post, I assume this is what you were referring to. Maybe you were talking about your new beam weapon and you just confused me by not being very clear...
Sorry, I forgot to specify that. I figured it would be obvious that you do the same thing you did the first time, so I didn't bother to say it again. I did say to rename to .ftl on the newest upload, although I guess I should be more specific and say to change the .zip to .ftl so you don't try to change the .append that is inside to .ftl.WhiteWeasel wrote:rename it to (whatever).ftl
