the ship installer isn't fully compatable with X3TC, it was originally designed for X3R and was never fully converted.
some ppl have had some success using it, but theres no guarnetee.
there is currently a new beta to the new plugin manager, Lite v1.10
this does include ship support. Althou its not 100% complete yet, it is more stable for installing ships than this one is.
you have 3 options to use ships
1) Wait until 1.10 is fully released with full ship support
2) Just use the current beta which most ppl have had no problems with so far
3) Add the ships in manually
Full ship support should be available by the end of the year, im hoping to get it finished and released before christmas
there are still several problems that you will encounter however, the ship creator has not yet been done, so only the old one exists, and this isn't fully compatable with the X3TC mod files
this means that the wizard and such features might not work correctly, so you will have to extract and create the ship file manually
from the DDTC you used, the list of ship ids are all the ships in the TShips file from the mod. Usually in the order they were added. This makes all the first ones the standard ships from the game with the newly added ones at the end
to pick the right ones, u need to know which ship you want to extract and try to match the id with that ship. You can use the X3 Editor to open up the file and fine the ship you want and use the id from that

Wow, thanks for the super fast reply! I downloaded your beta 1.1 manager and used that, and in that thread some folks discussed your "cheats" script, which allowed me to put the ships in the shipyard. The cheats part had scared me away from that one, since I'm just trying to get new models for the ships, not really cheat. I put in about 15 ships and everything except the TIE Interceptor seemed to work (it wouldn't appear when I tried to create it). Now I'm off to the tutorials to try to figure out if there's a simple way to adjust the cargo/speed/etc easily. I'd like to duplicate what's already in game and available so it's just basically the "look" that's different, rather than changing the difficulty of the game.
Anyway, I just wanted to say thanks, you the man!

Why would this program refuse to uninstall under vista 64 ?
It says I dont have sufficient access to uninstall it.
But I have all users given all access. I hate security so I set everything to full access.
There is only 1 user and it is set as administrator.
Suggestions ?
Edit : I installed the new program over the top, and then uninstalled it. It removed all the programs and directories, but not the start button menu.
Then I reinstalled the new program, and found most of the functionality missing.
Its a pain that new spk's are not readable by this old program.

Cycrow's Plugin manager needed!
Posting here as well...noticed that the download links are broken some time ago already, didn't have to care about it though, up until recently when I've lost the old installer file in an HDD crash...please let me know if it's still available for DL somewhere, and/or if someone of you fellow X players have it...thanks...
