the problem is most likly with EMP, the plugin manager creates its own emp files, so if you install it as well, it can causes those kinds of problems.

u'll need to make sure the EMP scripts are no longer in the game directory to prevent it from overriding the text for the wares

All I get is this error:

"
D:\........\X Plugin Manager\PluginManagerLite.exe

This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
"

I installed along with the VC++ redistributables, running XP SP2.

Oh well. :D

Help with plug in manager please

Post by xcorps » Wed, 3. Feb 10, 19:57

Hi all, I'm trying to get the plug in manager installed, but it can't find my steam installation.

According to the desktop shortcut, the app launches from
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\Steam.exe" -applaunch 2820

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

That's because Steam uses a different method to start games; the real executable is actually in a subfolder of the Steam folder. Using standard Windows search look for X3TC.exe in the Steam subfolders, you should find it easily.

I also have the steam version. All you need to do is go here:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\x3 terran conflict"
This **should** be your directory, unless Steam changes it depending on your windows version. I have xp sp3 32bit. If that isn't the right place, search your hard drive for x3tc.exe.

I use the plugin manager.... it's too awesome not to use ;)

Edit: Sorry BlackRazor I didn't see your post....

hi first off awesome plug-in manager i really like the easy going set-up (similar to be oblivion mod manager) but i've hit a snag it seems to be limitng how many ships i can install to 10 at a time, any time i try to add another it just overwrites a previous script, is there anyone to fix this? as I want to add some star wars ships i found from another site but becasue of this limitation i can't include all

theres no reason for it to limit to 10 ships only.

what happens exactly when you try to install the 11th ?

like i said everytime i try to add an eleventh ship it deletes one of the other installations and replaces (seems at random), i'm currently in modified mode and the only other script i'm using is the cheat pack

Hi,

I have installed the current Verion of the Plugin Manager. After this some scrips where shown in english language.
I have changed the most of them back to german but I got a new Mission 'A New Home' this is also english now.

How can I change this back ?

It's sad that I can choose my language in this program but then it will change some things in the game that dont have to be changed.

After the plugin manager lite tried updating it gave me this error [ external image ]
And won't open anymore. I read the few posts previous, but I cant disable EMP if I cant open the manager... Should I remove the EMP files myself? (and so, which ones are they?)

the autoupdater from 1.00 doesn't work properly, you need to download and install the full installer.

the auto updater is fixed in 1.10 thou, so it will update properly to future versions

no, you need to close the manager before running the game, as it does some things to prepare the game when it closes

NEWB NEEDS HELP!!!

I am new to this whole thing with script editing and moding and not all that computer literate, so I would appreciate some help.

I downloaded the X plugin manager because I wanted to make some alterations to the ships I was flying in X3TC. However, when I try to add the directory to the ship creator program it tells me that "the directory must contain x3" But it is in the directory I am selecting: computer / local disk c / program files x86 / egosoft / x3 terran conflict

I have tried this an number of ways, and I sure it's something simple.
