I managed to make my own new torpedo file. However, it's not playing ingame.
I named the Torpedo's py file PhotonType5 and Accurately made it so as a script for an Ambassador class.
However, it's not working and not appearing ingame.
What's going on?  :idk:

to better facilitate your issue, it would be good to upload the torp script, that way the wizards can look at it.

You added it to a ship hardpoint by any chance?

It's basically a Copy torpedo I made up from a TNG style Photon Torpedo.
However it's the coding that's driving me nutty.
It's just not being visible to the ship as a torpedo, even tho it's the right name for the python file.
I then tried somethign different as to rename the files into something different, and it still wont work.
http://bridgecommander.filefront.com/file/TNG_Torpedo;45906
Now I used to be good at making posts like this a couple years ago, but I seem to forgot how do it, since it's been years Since I tried modding period.
yes I did.
I'm also using BCUT to do the hardpoint tweaks
IS that a bad way to go or what?

Edit: it also appears that Model Propety Editor wont work as well for me :C

HA! I figured it out finally.
Normally when Bridge commander loads up python files, it compiles them. well in this case it didnt.
Therefore using python I saved the torpedo as .pyc and WHAMMO!
it works!
I cannot believe I forgot that!  :dance
Now, I'm gonna have so much fun now :D.
You may now moved this problem to problem solved. ty guys.
It really has been a long time since I modded lol. I'm glad I remembered it finally lol.
