Capital ship Weapons

I noticed that a lot of the weapons on the ships have been modified for the MOD. How do you look at and/or modify the weapon values for damage and so forth? And I'm wondering whether any of the project members have a list of the FS2 weapons and how much damage they do (Ship weapons only, I can get fighter weapons off the tech database).

Thanks

My FAQ while tell you how to get hold of the weapons.tbl from the .vp file. [URL=http://freespace.volitionwatch.com/fs1/mods/Guide/WeapMOD.shtml]This[/URL] will tell you what to do with it once you have it

You can check the damage of the beams from the table or from ZylonBanes Beam FAQ (there is a link in the FRED section of my FAQ)

They are all in .tbl files. In general, its just a bunch of numbers and tags that pertain to the weapons that define their characteristics. In other cases, they reference an animated file or a PCX file or a model file depending on the type.

Its relatively simple...like using Excell.

Now now...

M' Lady, I have many lusers here who have failed to grasp Excel even after years of fumbling about with it.

Along with Hydrogen, stupidity is the most abundant thing in the universe.

Now I didn't say you would have to master it, but know how to use it properly. I think at least most people can do that

You'd have to meet some of the ... pond-life ... I have to work with. There are things growing on damp bread that are smarter. For them, the Renaissance, let alone the IT age, are things that merely happened to other people!
