A little modding help

just a little

Hello,

I've been slowly making my own custom races for DA for awhile. I wanted B5 races along with ST races (and now SW races) to battle each other in a sci-fi mash up world, so I just went out of my way and made individual races for most of them, and the rest are coming along as I have the patience for them.

My question is, if I have a custom race, with a custom ship style via templates, how do I select a template for the Super Dominator Corvette from the drengin super ability? I've looked around the xml's and searched on the forum, but I probably missed it somewhere.

Currently, the corvettes show up invisible in game. I haven't tested it thoroughly to see how/when they cause a CTD, but I'd rather solve the main problem before I find that part out. Is it possible to select a new template for them? I'd assume that it's not a problem to have more than one race with that super ability, so long as each race has it's own version of the corvette...

Thanks in advance.

Super Dominator ships always use the Thunder shipcfg, rather than any specified in the style. So you need a (Prefix)_Thunder.shipcfg file for your style in order for them to show up.
