Opinion? What's that?
Hulls your way!
Published on February 27, 2006 By kryo In Modding

Ever want to use a Dreadlord Hull, or some other race's hull as your own, or even just a different hull than the size you picked allows? Now you can! KHSM adds a 'blank' hull of each size (simply a hardpoint and nothing else), and makes ALL ship hulls in the game into jewelry. So now you can have any hull design you like, add hulls upon hulls as jewelry, or even create a ship ENTIRELY out of jewelry with no hull at all!

READ THE INCLUDED README BEFORE USING!

Now updated and improved for Dark Avatar!

That debug says the game was played normally without mods with no problems. You need to actually make it crash, then grab the debug immediately after (it gets overwritten each time you run the game).

Last time I tried your mod after the B5 mod, so maybe my stuff was junked up.

Hmm. Ok I have the empty hulls, hardpoints, and fake modules, but where are the fake hulls? I can't seem to find those.

Spread out across the three tabs. Those for your style are on the 'Your Style' tab, DL hulls on the Generic tab, and the rest on the Other tab.

Kryo! Are we allowed to use this mod with other mods. i.e. I've got permission to use some other mods with mine and I'm creating a conglomeration type mod of all the really great mods. Besides my own, I'd like the two other base mods to be yours and the High Resolution Graphics mod. Let me know if you feel this would be OK!

Thanks Lynx xxx

Sorry, but I prefer to not have the mod included in other mods, as that then leads to support confusion and can propogate older versions rather than having people get them from the same place, where the latest version will always be posted.

Thanks for your reply. I understand and will abide by your wishes. Thank-you for all your support and keep up the great work with your mod.

Regards Lynx xxx

Hello Kryo. First let me say how much I love the mod. I've been using it almost from day one of owning DL.

I can't seem to find this answer, so I'll ask specifically.

I understand this mod is not compatible with the Metaverse. It's detected as a cheat. Does this mean that the mod cannot be installed at all?
Or does it simply mean that I need to uncheck the use mods checkbox in Options before starting a Metaverse game?

If it actually needs to be uninstalled, what is your recommended way of going about this? Would it be best to completely uninstall and then reinstall the game? Or is there an uninstall procedure that could quickly and painlessly remove the possibility of raising the cheat flag?

Thanks.

Yep.

Egg-cellent!

Is there a file list of what files the bat file replaces in the main galciv directory? Or am I seeing it wrong and it just expands the files into the mod folder. I just wanted to check to make sure I don't edit any xml such as the GC2types.xml file when a mod copy might already exist. I love the mod don't want cause a conflict when I run them together.
on Aug 29, 2007
Nothing is changed in the main GC2 folder, it just duplicates the models used by the mod into the mods\KHSM folder so that they can be made available in-game regardless of the hull style you play with.
on Aug 29, 2007
Great! Does it do for all the models? Maybe I haven't played with enough but it seems in my last game when I was playing with thalan ship style I didn't see the thalan hulls as extras. Does the mod skip whatever style your playing as or did I just not see them?

I was wondering because I would like to create some ship model templates that are available at the start of each game no matter what race or style I was playing. I assumed I could do that with this mod using the basic cube hulls as bases, But I can't seem to find ships I already made despite researching all techs. I am thinking I have to rename the custom models but to what?

Thanks for your help!
