Fly All Ships
_____________
To do this trick, you have to go into Windows Explorer or
whatever it is you use to look at all your computer files.
Go to your Alliance folder and look for a docment called
shiplist. When you open it, it shows you ship names, classes,
etc. Near the end of the line, you'll see either the word
flyable, or non-flyable. To add a ship to the flyable list,
just type in flyable in the place of non-flyable.
NOTE: With the larger ships like Star Destroyers and Cruisers,
handling is EXTREMELY slow and the turrets don't work. Also,
with any of the added ships, engine sounds don't work and
sometimes cockpits don't show up.
Outrun Missiles/Torps:
----------------------
Sick of getting killed by little renegade missiles or
torps? You can simply escape them by doing these things:
When you are being targeted try to dodge by waiting right
before they get a solid lock tone on you then break
really hard, or when the missile gets launched hit "/"
and then hit"*" and turn it so you can see the direction
of the missile and wait for it to come to you.
When it's about .50 clicks from impact on you break
really hard or bank off then reverse throttle and come
to a dead stop. The missile or torp should sail right
over you. But beware they will chase you for a while,
so when you get away from it, come around and get on it's
tail. Then you can target it with "I" and get a laser or
missile/torp lock on the missile itself, then blast it to
bits before it can come around for another pass. If you are
going after something extremely important like a capital
ship stay on it and pump everything into either shields or
engines. If you rever! t to engines then you better make
sure you can get in close enough that the capital ship
will blast it or you can move in and bank at the last second
and let the capital ship take the hit.
Note:This is much easier in a rebel ship because of
maneuverability.
Hack Flyable Ships
--------------------
In the X-Wing Alliance File under Lucasarts, find the
text file "SHIPLIST" and change "Non flyable" on any
capitol or unflyable ship to "Flyable". This will allow
you to fly any ship, even the Super Star Destroyer,
in the Combat Simulator.
Playing Tips:
-------------
If you're sick of getting killed from behind,set your shields
to maximum(F10 key) and transfer shield energy to behind your
by pressing the "S" key.You can also transfer partial power
from weapoons to shields by pressing the " ' " key.
If you're having trouble protecting a target,you can find out
who's attacking the target by pressing the "A" key while
targeting the craft or object you want to protect.
If you want to get anywhere faster, you can transfer either
all or partial power from either or both shields and lasers
to engines by pressing the "F9" and "F10"
GameTip:
--------
Pay attention to the mission briefings and the radio
messages while flying. They'll keep you informed of important
details. If you need help, go back to the briefing and check
out the mission hints.
Get a good joystick with a built-in throttle. The throttle
makes a huge difference, especially when you need to constantly
adjust speed in a dogfight.
During the Death Star missions, concentrate your lasers
forward and destroy the pipes in your way. You don't need to
blow up all of them, just the ones in your path.
Don't forget that you can fly back to a capital ship and
reload during a mission. But remember not to dally because the
action is still going on outside.
When flying a light freighter, order the AI to take over
your guns. Let them do all the work; all you need to worry about
is avoiding incoming fire.
If you're stuck and getting frustrated, the best thing you
can do is turn off the computer and get some fresh air. It really
helps to have a clear head.
Pay attention to what's happening around you; don't just
react to it.
