How come theres nowt for TA?

on Jan 18, 2010

Click around the inside of the mod section?  I have had the same problem.  I download mods, but they don't appear in the folder.  Not sure if I downloaded it in the right place or not.  So do I drag inside this box to find the mods that I downloaded?  And what about the message next to it saying that there are no mods in the mod folder?  This is pretty frustrating.

I want to design new hulls for human but i dont know how to do it,can any body help me do it.

Warning: 3-D modeling is HARD! However, if you know how to make models with "dummies" on them (which I have no idea how to do), you can export them to .x format and replace the actual human hulls with them.

If you're unable to get your mod selection screen to do anything, try installing this.

Ok one TBS modder doesnt seem to exist as far as the internet is concerned, but nvm that. The prob I'm really having is that theres no tutorial to mod in starbase components, I'm not looking to make ships dock there (nice as that would be, more experienced modders cant figure it out so **** that) but I WOULD like to make some new modules with different effects. I have seen others have success with this and I would like to try it myself but I have no idea where to look now. Anybody help me out?

- and how to make then the game knowing about the newly added S99_ files?

Thanks.
