General Discussion

@Alfa:

Me and my team are trying to come up with a story for our game. Well…we’re stuck on the story. Right now we need the start for it, which is, “How would WWIII start?”

We thought of religion with the Hadron Collider, but obviously that wouldn’t work. So then I thought of oil. That wouldn’t work either. So, that’s why I’m now coming to y’all to see if y’all can helps us out. Any ideas would be great. Thanks in advanced.

Chuck Norris would start WW3.

Thanks guys, I lost quite a bit. Maybe one day I may do more FL programs. At this time I am concentrating on my game engine and making tools for it.

Energy Drinks are awesome i like DeadBull ;D

**This is the first test version of the game engine I have been developing.

It is less than 6 months old so don’t expect miracles.**

As far as I know, most games don’t actually take up a whole lot of bandwidth, as they employ various tricks to send as little data as possible. Of course, if the game tries to use more bandwidth per hour than you have, you’re definitely boned, but it “usually” doesn’t come to that. I think what’s more likely to happen is for you to have some other applications that occasionally use bandwidth, and combined [with each other and] with a not very steady stream of data coming from the game, may end up bottlenecking whenever it matters.

If a program needs to transfer 115 MB per hour, and your connection is capable of 115MB per hour, and the program spends 60% time transferring at a rate of 50MB per hour, you’ll be pretty darn screwed for the other 40%!

I see no point in getting personal grudges on a public forum.

Have this issue, too. Just tried Hamburg City Mod (offical version/from official download source)

In the past few updates avira detected false positives - FLDCT.exe, AirRivals.exe and now this - so simple start Avira and click at extras->configure (F8)
[ X ] Expert Mode
-Guard

add here debuglib.dll
I guess you only have to add it at the 2nd list, but I dont know so I added to both - problem solved

For scanning processes

-Scanner

add here debuglib.dll

Issue should be solved now

Sorry Guys, I know the thread was locked, but it seems I missed out and I want my say.

I joined The Starport on the basis that we would not discuss TLR. We would let them do thier thing, and we do ours. We would strive to provide a safe, secure, fun and helpful place to come learn and discuss Modding, Tools, servers and everything related to Freelancer. We would show maturity and decency to all, and uphold strict standards.

I see none. That goes to some Staff and many community members.

Guys, it does not matter what TLR does. We are not TLR. SWAT is not TLR. TLR is it’s own site. Leave them to it. Do we every month have to have this ‘blow out’ we always seem to have.

Ignore it, and it will go away, somewhat like a bad smell…. or Cheesy boys feet.

If someone else (even Azza) runs TFL, leave him to it. I personally wish him luck. Although I have had my share of experiences with his and Knife, I am beginning to think TLR is cursed. So anyone wishing to take it on needs luck, and a lot of it.

It’s a shame I didn’t spot this earlier, as personally the language used here was beyond acceptable and personally I would have deleted half the posts, inclusing those of ‘prominent’ community members.

I thank you for your time, and wish you all a pleasant evening.

Topic locked, issue over all under control.

@Bejaymac:

…. the “selling” of a mod …

Besides the legal MS question
there will be other legal questions about
–- the models (Did the model creator give the right 2 sell it?)
— the rest of the modding work.

And beyond the legal questions
this topic shows a extremly deplorable mind imho.

As far as i can c
– Lunar_Eclipse. was “given” a mod
– he doesn’t do anything with it
(so he’s a newbie in modding etx. as we were told)
and than after a while
– he sells the work of others for a $ 100
and after another while
– he’s complaining about “his mod stolen”

Besides i don’t like the $/€-stuff in conjuction with Freelancer
i think i d pay that guy a visit or i d take him 2 court 2 get the 100 bucks.

And on the other hand we have Dias,
who
– “buys” a mod
and than
– offers “his” help.

Those 2 found themselfs
and imho THIS is the worst i v seen
about FL besides TLR going down.

[A] You no your at the right site when other"s post link"s to a drink mixer site ROFL

**Remember to drink like a fish out of water

[C] Suffer the morning after effect"s with a pillow over your head while moaning to one"s self never to do it again.Which we all no is a little white lie to yourself to cheer you up lol .**

@Roo:

😄 😄 😄

I have placed it on my forum 😉

Congrats! 😄

best way to cheak memory is either try it in anotehr pc or run memtest.

Its good to see. And with the Freelancer Community Network bar. Anybody who visits a site in the bar, will see it. Then start looking through the websites. Helps everybody. Its good to see Freelancer comeing back.

I think space combat won’t happen for a very long while, if at all. Biggest worry is, as OP said, inertia. More than anything, inertia will be troublesome. Engines? Eventually, we’ll get a reliable, fast and long-running engine. Weapons? Same thing. But fixing inertia would be like bending the laws of physics… It’s another kind of deal.

Which is why I believe the first space wars will be led by remote controlled machines which would not suffer from high Gs. The first “weapons” might even simply be spaceships ramming into eachother, just like when naval combat began. Isn’t a missile an airplane/spaceship with lots of explosives packed somewhere, after all? Manned ship-to-ship combat will take as long as needed to create technology to circumvent inertia issues.

you mean… you have running costs on your OS? lolwut.

and i DID buy my OS (sure, its the only thing i did legitimately buy…)
