Errior Loading Custom Ships

[Satin181]

So a few days ago I redownloaded this wonderful game and now today decided to get a few custom ships.


I got a error....

For any custom ship I load dled from the forums its always a error about missing stuff. For example, tried to play with the Skyburner -> viewtopic.php?f=2&t=5961 and got this error.

It goes on but Ill spare you.

I would greatly appreciate some insight on this.

First error indicates that you lack the newer ThrusterDX build, which you can find here.

You may want to try deleting the thrusters and turrets and testing your ships again. Make sure to save under a different name. I get th turret error alot and the thruster error I get when I enter an angle for a thrusterEX somewhere. It's irritation, which is why my ships have alot less turret relationships than they once did. I hope this helps, it usually does for me. IF they work, put them back one by one until you find the offending turret or thruster. I don't know any other way, but another user may.
