TIE Fighter Pilot Editor

The X-Wing Pilot Editor is a utility that will allow you to edit pilot files for the LucasArts game "TIE Fighter '98".

Use

  • To change an existing pilot file, load it using the File Open icon on the tool bar.
  • Just like the game, your pilot's name is taken from the file name. If you want to change the name, save the file with a different file name.
  • To create a new pilot file, use the File New icon on the tool bar. Saving a file using the icon on the tool bar will prompt you for a file name. If you choose the same name, you will overwrite your existing pilot file. There is no automatic backup feature.
  • Changeable data values have names that closely resemble the corresponding name in the game.
