No battleship encounters in SP

Alhough Crossfire is a brilliant mod ,

I.ve noticed that no random encounters involving battleships appear.

Tradelane

encounters work fine but they don't have capital ships and any zone encounters involving

friendlies without capital ships work okay.

The navy zone encounters don't work

either.

I have reinstalled Freelancer and the Crossfire mod 1.52 a number of times

after a complete wipe with the same result although I have added another ship to the game

which has it's own infocard and is fully scripted after applying the Crossfire

mod.

I had applied the Freelancer 1.1 patch and the unofficial 1.4 patch but I think

I tried it without these patches.

I tested Evolutions 1.30 and it had the same

problem so is it possible the unofficial 1.4 patch is causing this although I'm sure I

tried Crossfire without this patch.

Any help would be appreciated

well there are BS

encounters... many of them in SP.

I had a look in the zone encounter files and

noticed any
formations that had capital ships didn't appear including the formations for

the liberty navy, but I haven't been to other systems except the 3 standard ones in

Liberty.

[QUOTE]But to use other mods (or SDK) then the game will not work.

I

have seen it specified in other mods that you can't or shouldn't use the patches or SDK

but I didn't notice it in the readme's, Is using the unofficial 1.4 or the 1.3 SDK not

recommended for CF or do you think it may be causing my problem.

[QUOTE]Its also no

good idea to use other ships in CF that you have integrated.

Pity as I like the

Deathscythe or the Assault Gunboat (Stretched along the Z axis but with a radius still

around 30) from the Rebalance mod.

Thanks for your help.
