    I think you’ll find it’s more likely something wrong with your freelancer install or the mod files, not the program itself.
    Reinstall. 😛

    I don’t have a copy of DS here, but I would imagine it goes and looks wherever your FL location is set to in the registry.

    Of course. Wouldn’t do much good if I didn’t restart and let windows re-read the registry

    Ok FF and I figured out the error:

    The object nickname should be listed as Systemname_Trade_Lane_Ring##_ nothing else.

    Also figured out that don’t need a [Zone] entry. More testing is needed to confirm though.

    i used to run a rebalance server there were some bugs in the mod that would make the client and the server crash frequently.

    Something I noticed is that when I disabled v-sync the FPS stayed at ~60. I disabled it right on the video card itself, so I am kinda at a loss for how to more effectively disable it.

    Edit - Off topic, by why does the ‘target nearest enemy’ not actually target the nearest enemy? It seems to only target the nearest mission objective. Is this because I am using discovery, or is there something else I am missing?

    Bumpidy.

    Well, not just a bump. I’ve actually come across a trend in the crash: it happens if I try to save after playing Freelancer for a period of time (~5-10 minutes). Also, it happens if I alt-tab out of Freelancer and then try to save, regardless of how long I’ve been playing (I just tried it as a test, and I loaded a base, alt-tab, went back into the game, clicked save game, crash).

    FLSpit still isn’t telling me anything, so I can’t tell if it’s my computer (I’m running Windows Seven x64, whereas I used to play Windows XP x32) or my mod. If it’s my computer, there isn’t much I can do (or is there?), but if it’s my mod, I definitely want to get it fixed before I release it.

    Is your server hosting a modification?. Some mods set new players msg’s off and require a command line to make them return.
    I cant remember the new player command line off the top of my head sorry.

    some mod makers do that on purpose to force people on the server to dock on planets with bigger ships . it is the same with the epsilon mods they made on really big ship that only docked with planets only. can you use a moor sometimes a mod maker will make the moor work when you cant dock. anyway ask your question on the discovery site to get the best help.

    so , you need flakhook or flhook 1.6.7 test 19 o higher.

    You need to create the same base ex: “RH01_mobile_proxy_base” in every system, with the first char to be the sys name like in the exemple.

    Then, when InGame, the ship need to be in the same group to dock on the capship.

    this is just the principal lines, take a look at flak88 to see how it’s implemented, and with some research on the forum, you will found some post i 've made when i’m trying to implement it in my mod, with the help i have from good people here 😉

    Well you might as well use as much AA and AF as you can with that card, set them to 16x for AF and 16xQ CSAA for AA. Set texture filtering to high quality and turn triple buffering on.

    32x AA is overkill, eh? Ok, tweaked those guys up, we’ll see how she rolls. 🙂

    EDIT: whistles the screen I had with the cargo ship going past the base that looks like Fort Bush? I can barely see any jaggedness at all, and the animation is smooth as anything. 🙂

    Any other tweaks welcome, but for now I’ll stick to the resolution I get from FL + FLpatch 1.1 + QuickFix 1.0c 🙂

    yep, use flhook 1.6.1 or newer, or use Flakhook 🙂
    you still need to make some ini modification to use it (add mobil proxy base in every systems)
