Where can I edit how much Hull and Shield a starbase starts out with and such, because I can't find it in the StarbaseTech file.
ryat is correct. and additional info the StarBaseUpgradeRACEupgrade.entity files can have up to 9 upgrade levels, but the total upgrade limits are in the StarBaseRACE.entity.
in my personal megasb mod I have level 9 hull & shields, level 9 weapons, level 6 hangars & level 3 trade(tech only the other races get a level 2 trade) and 30 upgrades limit, and when I tried them with distant stars nasty pirates mod and diplomacy 1.001 in a little mod I was helping another modder with, two of my starbases could DESTROY a 50000 credit raid in diplomacy without the pirates even getting to the other structures typically withing 30 seconds, which allowed me to focus my fleet on optimum for slow expansion(porcupine style) play without even worrying or thinking about defence as anything that enters my gravwells that is NOT a friend is fried on the spot, yes insta-fry advent battleballs of entire fleet caps.
and it could take a huge pirate raid AND a races entire fleetcap to take one of my two starbase planets and the homeworld in that minimod had eight!!! megasb's.

Hmm, okay, I will mess around with that see what I come up with.
Though I tried to change how many upgrades a Starbase has, it didn't quite work for me , but I guess I must have been doing something wrong...
While I am at it, I was wondering how to create a ship or edit a created one already. As in convert a ship's Mesh to a format XSI 6 Mod Tool can understand.
Help is appreciated.
were you using the latest version reference files or the ones that come with the forge tools ( and ARE GUARENTEED to minidump with the current entrenchment/diplomacy.
as far as converting/loading the meshes into a design program I think myfist and another of our moddersmight be working on such a tool.
