ships might not show up on the ID book
 

In the next release I will have the ID book ready for this...

God I hope they say yes. Is this just stock ships or modded ones too?

Ships in Package
 

@ Boris - It contains most of my kitbashed ships, with the exception of the Belize (too much like the Coastal Merchant), the Rose Castle, and the Proteus (neither of them have been UV Mapped). It also does not contain the Lightship (lighted by Anvart for me) or either of the two cruisers I built in GWX with Ref.

In addition to these, it contains the two original cloned merchants from Sergbuto (I got permission from him first and credited him for them). The rest of the ships were stock though.

Answer
 

Well looks like modded ones from AG124...Im just converting the files.

report errors
 

this was installed on a clean copy and works fine...might have issues if you install the newer ID book...but not sure...

I got a single error loading up the mission editor. It said:

The unit class NCOT from country Japan not found in the platforms library

made a quick mission with new ships, got CTD on loading. Yep, every time, ctd

Are these ships for mission development or will they be cruising the ocean?

OK, the NCOT.cfg file has the class name as just COT. I changed it to NCOT, and the mission editor stopped giving the error. will load up game and see if that fixes it.

OK caught it tooo
 

changing it in the download as we speak

Ok
 

Hmmm they should be ready for both...this is Ag124 department more than mine.

Errors
 

let me know how its going now...

Changing the class to NCOT fixed all the problems.

That depends on the number of generic entries in the camapaign files. Not sure how much in the SH4 campaign is generic offhand, but there should be some. At very least the merchants should spawn as single contacts.
