How do you create new weapon and thruster hardpoints?

@Striker - I rarely go out of my way to not help somebody, but you have asked this question 3 times and 3 times I have told you to use the search function (I even provided a link to it!) and search for your answer as when I did a search, I timed it and it literally took 4 seconds to find the answer.
There are some fantastic people here who go out of their way to write tutorials and answer questions for people, but if you cannot use the search function, then you will not get very far.

I have tried that but nothing comes up

Hello, I am tring to edit an older Mod. Using Freelancer explorer, I wanted to add ships from some other mods, and ship packs. Also wanted to add weapons, from other mods. I am real new at this, Please can someone tell me how to do it.
I tried but they would not show up in freelancer explorer.
What am I doing wrong?
Thnak you

I do believe that if you use the thread saying it holds all the answers in the newbie modders forum, that it contains a link on how to make hardpoints.

Otherwise, search for hardpoint editor or creator - download, install, and then double click on the CMP file of your ship.


As for FL:Explorer - that is a system creation tool - its not really a mod tool strictly speaking, and especially if in the mod your trying to edit uses XML scripts (FLMM script) - then you won't see anything.

However, there are plenty of tutorials on how to make guns, bases, set items to sell, make ships fly etc etc. Check the newbie modders forum, and read the post saying it has all the information. Its like help file

@Striker - Search the editing tutorial forums for adding hardpoints.

Or CLICK HERE! or even easier, get yourself HardCMP from EOA

Okay, I have a slight problem. I edited the harpoints on a dagger light fighter. I removed the counter measure dropper and the mine dropper, and replaced them with torpedo harpoints (properly removing, resetting, and renaming the hardpoints). I also changed the torpedo hardpoint in the lower hull into a turret mount. While I am inside a starbase or planetside, it shows all the hardpoints properly and lets me install the proper weapons. But once I launch into space, they disappear from my ship info screen and will not fire. Any ideas on what's going on?

I used UTF editor to mod the hardpoints, changed everything in the shiparch proper, and even made up my own infocard for the ship.

On the start screen select the system you want one end of the jumpgate/hole to be and double left click it,on the insystem screen move the pointer to where you want the gate to be and right click,select whichever one you want from the menu and then head back to the start screen by double left clicking,select the system for the other end and double left click again.

**shuffles of with a new headache**

Simple question. Is it possble to change the speed of the tradelanes or is it hardcoded?
