I haven't beat the game yet (dunno what that has to do with anything..), but I really like the Erinyes(sp) fighter and the Maxim and Kayser weapons, and I was wondering if there was a way to access them on any mission or level without not being able to proceed?

Like a mod or cheat? I know there's the [url="http://www.freespace2.com"]www.freespace2.com[/url] cheat, but is there anyway to access all the ships on any mission? ME LUVS ERINYES (maxim and kayser tu!)

Nope. The only way to get those ships in mission is to have them in the mission. If you really want it that badly, get VP view, extract all of the missions in the campaign, and open them in FRED2, and put the ship/guns in the team loadout...

Couldn't you rename the POF's and make it look like an Erinyes?

If you rename the pof, you run into having wrong animations, loadout screens, speed, and loadout capabilities... So really, your better off leaving it alone, and waiting until you do the SOC missions for the Erinyes...

Because I'm sure you don't want an Erinyes that can be destroyed in 2 shots like the Loki...

Yea and besides, the selection of ships you can use in a mission is limited in order to ballance the gameplay.

There IS a ship/loadout cheat, but I'm not sure if its available in Single Player... its probably posted in an old thread in the Squad War forum on the VBB. Its something like when you pick your ship hold down tab and switch screens real fast... that way you could (for instance) load out a Pegasus with the extra gun and missile banks of a Herc 2, for instance.

Anyway, not sure exactly what it is tho...

Good enough

Now, I don't think it would work too good...

Every ship would look like the erinyes, and have some really weak attributes... He really doesn't want to change the Erinyes to a loki...

Ahh, but the Erinyes has 8 gun points!

But if you replace the model of a loki with the model of the erinyes, it will look like an erinyes, yes, and have the 8 gunpoints (14 if you have the one I made for my friend [which is the only reason he's got a higher rank than me in fs2 multi ]) but the ship attributes such as the sheilding strength, the hull strength, and the weapons loadout will be grately different.

See what I'm saying?

Yeah, I realize that. I'm not saying you should do it, just that you can, and you'd get some funky effects.
