Freelancer Support

I’ve run it under VMWare before, this is nothing new.

Oh and BTW, it works in Wine as it can be installed using PlayOnLinux, which is a Wine frontend. It’s not fully functional as it only allows basic SP, but it works.

Verdammt, I had really overlooked the categories at the dealer… Please don’t tell anyone! :oops: Thanks a lot!

The widescreen mod also works very well, thanks for that as well! While we’re on it, are there also mods for…

improving space station textures? The game doesn’t look bad at all considering its age, it’s just the space stations (and buildings on planets) that hurt the eye a bit… 😉

temporarily decreasing difficulty? Since the save points are 20 minutes apart, it’s a bit annoying when you only have 1 hour to play, and have to play the same 20 minutes including cutscenes again and again. So, just in case I run into further problems…

free saving, that would be best of course…

This makes you realise how easy the games of today have become… Don’t require the same amount of thinking. Yesterday, I somehow launched into space without shield - it was too late when I realised… 😉

Thanks for all the support, I’ll recommend this site to Spock! 😄

PS: Reply notification doesn’t seem to work though, but no big deal.

Correct on the IP (I forgot to update it when I pasted, :oops: ).

DirectPlay8 uses the same ports as FL, correct? It’s also checked off as an exception in Windows firewall. Do you still get the ??? ping?

edit

Just rebooted the server box. Any luck now?

yep very good tool dsam, i use it for the Freeworlds french server all work fine and it’s a complex mod ^^

Yeah, a bit more info would be useful.
I run Freelancer under Win7 Pro on a Core i7 Quad without any problems.

Awesome. That did it. Thanks!

Thanks! 😄

This one is cheaper.

Most ISPs use old hardware which does not have any available update to support IPv6, so a software upgrade becomes a costly hardware upgrade.

well, the wave editor i use, audacity, always tells me about an import of an mp3 when i open up a riff wav file. maybe your media player starts reading with the wav script, when it sees a wav ending. try renaming the files, their format is still being mp3.

initial world.ini file. Self explanatory really when you look at it, only use values that you already see in the file and if you change a faction remember to change it for both factions concerned. Empathy.ini file can be tweaked in a similar fashion, that file controls how you’re rep is affected when you complete/fail missions or kill members of factions.

Got ot working, alright!!! Beautiful 😄

Now I’m gonna read the page =Alex= linked to.

Hah!

Me use-um Spybot and SpywareBlaster.

No antivirus.

Me not have problem.

Once in blue moon me get virus, and me reformat um 😄 disk.

But me make image of um fully-loaded clean 😄 disk and all me need is um restore image on um 😄 disk only! 🙂

About 15 minutes.

See here for how: http://forums.seriouszone.com/showthread.php?55706

But last time there was no virus, only the blasted Google redirect trojan - and I found out how to fix that without restoring my 😄 disk.

I’m not telling you lot to do what I do, only telling what I am doing, and showing you how you can do if you want-um.

Me smokum virtual pipe to disappear in virtual cloud of smoke…

It’s clean.

thanks for all the help guys, seeing how this has now been figured out this can get locked for future refrences for other modders as well

Yep /stuck should work. You might have to type it multiple times.

Also that station is on the high priority fix list for the next release.

Yep, there is - just put up with me when I’m feeling Grumpy - that’s most of the time! 😄

If you find another version number than 1.0 at the server list and you want to try out the modification, you should first look at the server name, it mostly will tell you which mod you need.

Heheh… there’s quite a few farts still left in ol’ ST! lol

Cannon - any info on my DSAM query above please? Thanks.
