Freelancer Support

This will be due to Jasons Freelancer patch 1.2 that has a line missing from the mission files.

http://adoxa.3eeweb.com/freelancer/index.html

Look at the information next to version 1.00, it mentions the mission 9 fix.

If you are using any other patch then I am not sure.

GLS workaround should work providing all is setup correctly, as we still use it.

Hmmm - I have done everything as instructed, but nothing happens 😞
Maybe I need to reinstall the programme on C instead of C Program files.

Englisch:

one can help me now?
I really like the discovery 4.86 CORRECT install + the Irish flhook?
since 4.86 is an exe and it’s not over because FLMM goes right?

Don’t think that’s the issue. Death_penalty simply does nothing in this case me thinks.

Thank you. Thank you a lot. CLOZED !

You can position elements independently, so just

Running it on Vista is no more complicated than XP, only difference is make sure it isn’t in one of the program files folders and you have disabled UAC (for autorestart issue). FL will run in both 32 bit and 64 bit. Older versions of FLHook (pre 1.61) will have most likely have issues on 64 bit though.

Another thing to watch for is the timer issue on multicore processors. Set the affinity to 1 core manually or do it thru a .bat file (the command line interface (SHELL) has a command for it now)

Yea, m8, mystical things as you say.
Same like when you kill NPC and in last death moments you see name change of the real player (someone next to you).

But regarding topics subject, I would like to pin-point crucial matter playing this old game with different FPS.
There is no doubt that players with HIGH FPS have advantage in PvP!
Fighting with 60 fps vs 170 fps player makes for you similar thing like thing called “mouse lag” and that player is significantly faster in turns and avoiding rockets, mines, …
When fight is limited to 60 fps for both players (with common.dll hack) that fight cant last longer than 30-40 sec! You in that situation rarely miss cose player is slower and guns hit target!
With FPS rised fight, its longer, faster, more agile, which is wrong! Simply, the physics of the game are spoiled. 60 FPS is a must!

So, to be specific, how can be game limited stable to 60 FPS?

Sry, but adoxa’s finding does this, but I must confess that its not working perfectly. Players with good and bad PC specs have same issue. When they join server their FPS drop down to 30 FPS, and when they start recording it rise to 60. Having game below 60 FPS makes laggy feels. In most cases, it works, but when it does not, they lose interest to play a buggy server - mod.

I would like to hear others, their opinion and personal experience! Hope you didn’t fight for first time! ; )

Afaik the cursor is configured through mouse.ini or the related texture file.
Or did u mean the crosshair? (little red cross which indicates where u must shoot at)
This is next to “Crosshair” at the flcolors script made by adoxa

Here is a smal Video Tutorial, maybe helps you.
Consider that you may have to edit the mouse.ini also.
Here you find the FreelancerSDK there are all the
decrypted ini-Files.

Have Fun 😉

btw: GIMP shows the visible places in the Alpha in black color 😉
and dont show the invisible.

This is solution 4 that!

Check freelancer.ini for the following section:
[Startup]

Make sure the movie_file = lines exist and do NOT have a semi-colon in front of them.

edit: Oh… I see what you’re saying, the movie is playing but no video. My guess is that you need to reinstall your VGA drivers. That would be the first step I’d take.

😮 i hadnt, reading it now, thanks again 😄

Their forum is down but it seems their list server is still up, well partially, half the list is missing.
