Hi All,
i'm Cain from Solaris7.
StarRaven,
I wasn't aware of the problem with hovercrafts. is it for a clan and XL or any type.
I know there is an issue with Clan XL engines weighing as light engines. (I've got that fixed).
Also, the damage for lrms and srms i've put at the base damage. i wasn't sure how people wanted the damage, so i took a punt and went for the base amount.
Also as for the lock-up, not to sure about that one. Does it happen at any point or when adding weapons??
Blackhand,
to get a turret you need to check the turret box, otherwise its not listed. as for ammo, yep gets placed into the body automaticaly.
i'll try and sort out the hovercraft and add it to the patch i'm about to release.
i've also got a BA program if anyone is intrested 
Thanks for the feedback, keep it coming.

The hovercraft problem is for Inner Sphere fusion powered ones, as far as I know. I haven't really made any ICE or Clan vehicles. I'll have to check to see if it happens to Clan stuff.
I think I'm also having a similar weight problem with a VTOL design (IS fusion powered). I'll have to check it again; I'll get to that later today.
"Base damage" meaning the number of missiles likely to hit, right? I can see listing it like that, although I'm accustomed to seeing max possible listed. But this is 2 damage listed for Streak SRM 2s - and Streaks don't miss.
The lockup happens when loading a file. It comes up with the thing saying "Loading File," and freezes there. I haven't noticed any specific circumstances under which it freezes - it'll freeze when loading a file, and then open the same file without trouble after I restart the program.
Do you want me to mail/post files or anything for the multi-weighted hovercraft?

I doubt it. Battle Armor Forge uses the American spelling of "armor." Cain is Austrailian, so in VCF, it's spelled "armour."
But I'd also be interested in the battle armor program.

His BA program is Battle Armor Construction, IIRC.

Warhammer,
the battle armor forge uses a non-offical rule set. or so i have been told many times. I've tried to write a program with the rules from the companion(sp).
StarRaven,
i'll double check whats going on, however if you could email a design i can have a look.
Blasty, yep Battle Armour Construction is the one, i've changed the name to Battle Armour Factory just to keep people guessing
EDIT:
ok, i've found the problem, it looks like i forgot to export the lift control weight to the html file.

All right then. Do you still want me to mail you the files anyways?
And a question: Is the weight of engine shielding included in the weight of the fusion engine? I just added up an IS fusion-powered tracked 100 tonner, and got 104.5 tons. Engine shileding is 4.5, but the engine itself weighs 13 - 4.5 more than a BattleMech's 200 rate engine.

StarRaven,

As for the warship editor, thats a good question, might have to see if i can get AT2r to make sure all is ok with the program.

I am afriad that I have a problem here when I try to open this program I get an error report :
VCF.exe has generated errors and will be closed by windows.
I have tried reloading the program and it did not solve the problem. I have Windows 2000 professional in my computer
