X3 Terran Conflict : Tutorial on getting good shots

[draconis115]

how did you spawn so many fighters at once? I can only spawn one at a time!

[deathcoy]

i was playing terran defender and argon soldier, the tutorial is bugged? theres 1 part where im supposed to dock at some orbital defence station but the docking option is greyed out and when i click on the station it is targetted but theres nostation there... pls help... it works fine in custom game though...

[applesweeter]

Dear All,

I have some questions about psychology:

(1) Why do we love space travel travel?

(2) Why does space travel feel differently from flying?

(3) Why do we enjoy to play PC games realted to space travel?

(4) If you work for NASA, how will you design a new internation space station?

(5) If you are the programmer of Microsoft, how will you design a space travelling game for players in 4-10 years old?

THANK YOU IN ADVANCE for your creative ideas and brainstorm!!! :)

[BradleyWalters1995]

could you please make a how to make money tips/ideas/tutorial or something like that. even if its short. i got this 3 days ago and i get the controls and stuff but i just cant make resonable money. ( i realise it takes time to get money but just something to get started or something). or if there are any vids like this please put them here or something.

[theeclownbro]

Hey guys and to any one that doesnt know u have to get a cheat mod called cycrows cheat package.From wat i know u have to download a mod and package installer which should be avalable at egosoft.com forum

[theeclownbro]

U do know that using a joystick gets rid of that "circle of doom" :)

[KeegriffProductions]

i can't seem to be able to hotkey the cheat menu

[spacefannumber1]

@KeegriffProductions You'll have to save a game profile for the game to remember the hotkey. You will have to do this for each new profile

[KeegriffProductions]

@spacefannumber1 well i have a save game for with the cheat enabled it's just my cheat menu doesn't offer to have a hotkey

[skorpion1298]

I LOVE THIS GAME SOO MUCH!

[JeckAubrey]

thank you!!!!!!!11

[galaxy366]

LOL battlestar galactica loading screen?

[Soullocked]

thanks for the tutorial :D , inspired me to make vids for youtube :D

[Hanibaltherogue]

Ahm.... where is the cockpit?

I played X2 Reunion and i remember there were cockpits for each ship...

Did they changed it?! :-(

[MrTjommas]

I don't remember a galaxy on the background of Argon Prime,

What mod do you use? It looks fine...

[MrDanieltang]

is that OL game?

[icecremer]

PLEASE, I BEG YOU, MAKE A 30 HRS LONG TUTORIAL, ILL LISTEN.

[viciokas1993]

Is this game even possible without hacks? I found it RIDICULOUSLY hard (not because of the amount of stuff to know, but plain shooting is hard like hell)

[gruntmaster1]

@viciokas1993 The game is easy once you figure things out, the problem is that there is a lot of reloads untill that happens. Use space to be in flight mode, making things easier, (I didn't know this in the start xD), get auto aim when you can (get fight command mk 2 and press k to change fire mode there should now be semi, off and on as options). Go for m3 fighters with heavier shields, but choose those who still have some speed... continued

[gruntmaster1]

@viciokas1993 ...In combat, take out the heavier fighters first (m3 has a triangle with 2 strings below it) and use WASD to avoid enemy fire. Equip missiles to make life easier in hard fights, hope this helps.

[subzero1456]

@viciokas1993 ya it is. ya just have to be very aware.

[MasterChiefAgent007]

Nevermind, I just needed to download never cheat script.

[MasterChiefAgent007]

Strangely I can't find the option to clear the entire sector, even with Thereshallbewings and Script Editor enabled.

[VagianTuerous]

Sorry to be a pain, but I can't find the installation directory so I can use the plugin manager installer. I'm looking for the x3.exe file. Any ideas where it is?

[CT2507]

great tips... makes me want to start shootings some space movies! :)

[tasev1]

That is pure Stargate right there! A 'gate' in the background with a ship that looks like the replicator vessels!!! I love it.

Everywhere I look, I see STARGATE!

[Retheraq]

Which is the background mod?

[jordankiljoy6]

is good

[mathil72]

Nice tutorial. but i've got a problem i've i download the cycrows cheat package i don't get the options like clear entire sector and no collisions maybe i do something wrong but i just downloaded the cheat package do you know the problem

[anurangax27]

nice video ..

[FractaI]

Hi if anyone is free to help me please i would like to ask

when you beign in this game iand you press "TAB"

Boost extention

is your ship supposed to accelerate 3x is fastest speed? all tab does to me is go to maximum speed but not more then i can do manually Please help me

[GruntofAction]

All it does is make you go 3 times as fast to your max speed.

[xewexewerx]

If you have Afterbuner installed. Otherwise it just goes to max speed with normal acceleration.

[Naxon255]

how come you start in argon prime?

when i choose custom game i can only start in omycron lyrae (spelling?)

anyways, great tutorial mate!

[AsianManZan]

Good Tutty thanks metalvenom

[x3tcChannel]

no problem thanks :) I will be making a better one at some point so stay tuned :)

[F1ameb0y10000]

@x3tcChannel you said this a year ago mate, got any new vids or tips on HOW TO PLAY THIS GAME??????

[x3tcChannel]

@F1ameb0y10000 dude! I only do how to make "movies" tutorials. a video tutorial on HOW TO PLAY THE GAME would be many hours long very indepth due to the vast scope of the game lol, your best bet is the official forums.

[F1ameb0y10000]

@x3tcChannel Oh thanks man and yes I agree the full tutorial on how to play the game would be massive lol but I'm kinda getting the hang of it I just don't know how/where to get new ships like transporters and stuff, alot of the missions require different ships and stuff.....

[oceanmist347]

F..K i did not think like that...as usual complicating myself

[repatomonor21]

You know, I should rly continue my work on my video, but I started to mod TC, then I started to play Star Trek Bridge Commander, and now I m stuck in between xD

[kingpaul1985]

how do u get the Cycrows cheat thing to work i dont get it

[Wasteland1000]

right now my only computer that has internet is my laptop wich wont support this awesome game. any suggestions on what i could do? thx in advanced

[TheDeadSource]

Install the game on a compy that supports the game, use a flashdrive to get Fraps or any other recording program from the net compy to the game compy, record, film, shoot, kill the game if you'd like, and get the video files back with the flashdrive to the net compy. That a good enough suggestion for ya?

[ALIENxenomorph100]

Great tutorial, just two questions, what are the graphics settings you have for the game and how do you get the zoom to stay without automatically zooming out every few seconds, thanks.

[webname05]

What program do you use to edit those videos ? Sony vegas? Pinnacle?

[webname05]

What button is used to start recording? Is this stuff still in the game?

[x3tcChannel]

fraps is a third party program . google it

[webname05]

I just do not want to use fraps. So the recording was removed from the game?

I used it alot in X2.

I crack fraps :D

[UFeindschiff]

Which program did you used to record it?

[x3tcChannel]

I used Fraps

[repatomonor21]

I made one vid using your tutorial. All respect goes to u :D

[ryeeson]

Ha.. no wonder i notice something...

That how you did it.. hehe

[NForcerSMC]

Good tutorial. This tutorial has help me to create a X3TC Video. Thx.

[orcishoverlord]

Oh crap, sorry about the double posting ...

browser didn't show the 1st one after a refresh o.O

[orcishoverlord]

I think you can get rid of the blue circle by using the classic view ( shift + n i think ) and then diabling the HUD. Anyway, great tutorial, too bad you need a wicked machine to get all the details :P

[orcishoverlord]

You think you can get rid of the blue circle by pressing shift+n ( classic view ) and then removing the HUD so that the target is not shown ( at least i think it would disable the target ting :P ). Anyway, very cool tutorial...all you need is a serious machine to do it on :)

[LsBaba]

Bloody excellent!

[bobafetthotmail]

"so, let's destry the sector" frikkin' awsome video tutorial... thanks man! XD

[Jimmynuts1]

[metalvenom]

[markomruki]

Stinken awesome.. cheers for that
