Precentors?? Cool

[YingJanshi]

Was playing a while back and came across a couple of ships names Precentor Focht and Precentor Waterly. Unfortunately I can't recall what mods I was playing with but I was just wondering who put them in?

[Ttech]

I don't know what mods those were, however Xelerus might shed some light using the search function?

If ttech's suggestion dosen't help...

Do you still have the mods at all, or did you delete some? If you've got the downloads, telling us which ones will help narrow it down. If you've still got stuff in your extesnsions folder, going there and doing

Code: Select all

c:\wheever\transcendence\extensions>dir /a /s > modslist.txt

And pasting us the contents of that file might help too

more accurately: the version of game and type of ships with the name:
the database does not have any of those words : but now you do have us curious

Seems there must be another BattleTech fan out there, I think I saw a Victor Davion once too. I believe they were random ships I encountered in the arena.

If you have Notepad++, you can hit [Ctrl] + [Shift] + [F] ("Find in Files..."), and it will search for a text string that appears in any file in a directory. You'll want to use these settings:

Find What: Precentor
Replace With: (leave blank)
Filters: *.xml
Directory: (your transcendence Extensions directory)
In All Sub-Folders: (Checked)

Click "Find All", and you'll see the results on the bottom pane. You can use that list to jump straight to the mod in question.

(If you do find it, please post the results, because now I'm curious...)

That was my Arena Extension mod. Yep, I loved BattleTech back in the day! Ran a couple of BT websites for ages. I used Focht and Waterly as names for Hurin Destroyer opponents in advanced stages of Arena combat.

For the Arena Extensions mod, I had to come up with <Names> for all the new arena opponents. You'll see names from comic books, other RPGs, made-up names, and every combatant name from Unreal Tournament, among others.
