Marlin,


If you want to do it simple and get them working, you could go to Cheat/Add Wares/Install all Equipment

Then to go Increase UT Experience to Maximum

You can then go to Control Console/Trade/Universal Trader mode and get it on its way.

Mike is right though, you need Best Buy and Best Sell and the Nav packs. (That 'should' be all you need).


Make sure it has nice shields on it...



Bill
 
Thank you Gentlemen.

I have not found out where to get the best sell-buy software yet and beings I'm REALLY trying not to use the cheat menu, I'll just have to wait for a bit more. Once I find them for sale I'll buy enough for all my freighters and go to town.

Bill I like your idea of setting the UT, but I'm in the middle of the story line and there are a lot of people that don't like me at the current moment :kilroy:
I wonder if by changing that, it would reset how they 'feel' about me.

It kind of freaks me out to fly into a sector and see everything RED, nerve racking. But if that is the way it is supposed to be, then so be it.:icon_lol:

Marlin, if you are having problems locating anything in the game I strongly suggest getting the X3 Map by Scorp, it is a standalone map program that has an excellent search feature that will tell you where anything you want/need can be found. You can download the program here - http://www.suu-design.com/downloads.html. The other neat thing about this mapping program is you can configur it so that it only displays sectors that you have already discovered in game so it does not add a cheat factor. Having said that I always found that it is a little unrealistic to not have access to a complete map, after all in real life you can purchase a map for anywhere you are going and have it for reference so why should you not have that ability in the game? Regardless this mapping program is an excellent add on and I highly recommend it.

Oh and a quick tip on the Best Buy/Sell locators, they are designed to help make "Profit" right so they have to be made and sold by Teladi - "It's all about the Profits" for them, they kind of remind me of the Frengi from SNG.

Regarding your rep with some races, yes if you trade with a race it will improve your reputation with that race, it will not be easy if they are your enemy now they will not allow you to dock to make trades, however if you go to sectors that do not have "Core level" security, you may be able to adjust the "Friend or Foe" status - which is not a cheat, it is in the General commands menu, to start trading with stations and repairing your good name. BTW if I recall the only races that you should P.O. in the story line are the Pirates and the Xenon, so you may have gotten a little trigger happy in a mission or two and that will be a challenge to repair the relations with "unfriendlies".
 
Yesssss, very outstandinggg. You mess with my profitssss and you diiiiie.

Thank you very much, that is exactly the program that I was looking for!!!
This site (Outhouse) is like hitting a gold mine every time I come here.

I guess when I was scanning those freighters looking for space weed, as part of a mission, they got a tad bit bent I’d say. LOL Ah well, just go with it. Seems like a good place to pick up easy ships since they have pegged me as an enemy.
Thank you very much again.
 
Hey all,

You can also purchase the best buy/sell upgrades at some of the HQs scattered throughout the galaxy. I believe I purchased my first set at the Terracorp HQ.
 
Thanks for that map link Bill. That is so cool and a life saver too. :applause:

I hated trying to print out those other TC maps.... what a bummer.

Now I've got to set up a second monitor.
