Any balanced vanilla mods?
-
I’d argue that it’s not because the vanilla stuff can be balanced that this should make you restrict your choices to just that. I doubt you’ll find much; most modders would find making such a mod desperately boring at best.

Because the vanilla game got boring to mod

As for a completely rebalanced FL game. Flubyus FLAD v.075 has not added anything other than all ships can mount any weapons providing you can buy them. Cost effectivd. Shipyard are your access to them. The game play is fast and furious. Additions are;
Shield Generators
Armor and Power generators
Many tweaked weapons for better game play
Lootable items with many new wrecks
Increased AI
New thrusters added that weren’t accessible in the standard Story line
Better ship control as well
Increased impulse speed and cruise speed than just poking along @ 300kps.
A better economy for trade and a rebalanced of cargo holds so all items aren’t the same size.
No systems changes other than added jhs to get around in easier.I’m not sure if he still has the download but, I have permission to
upload it. Only the client side because I am the only one that was
given permission to run it server side. It comes with and SP version as well. All Vanilla jgs and jhs have been opened.He has created many since but to me, this is the best and smoothest mod ever for pure Freelancer balancing. No new ships, all original Freelancer storyline. No added systems just opened all the nomads systems that were locked after the story.
I can make this mod available if you which to use it and see if you like it or not.
I don’t not, however, have the right I add it here in the download section.
If you like a challenge, then this is a mod for you.
There’s is not a server set up for it so, there’s no reason to look for one. If one pops up then is not a legal server if my name and/or forum is not attached to it. The access to the mod will only be available from my forum.
I’ve been a beta tester for every mod he has created and they are some of the best mods on there today. He’s been creating mods since Freelancer first hit the markets and is not a n00bie at making them. His mods are used in various mod today.Pm me and let me know.

His latest version is still in testing and not sure when it will be released because, he doesn’t like to put out something that isn’t finished other than for his beta testers to view for inconsistencies.

I said to mod, not to play. Big difference there. I don’t mind playing vanilla.

By the way, I have over 400 (32gigs) of Freelancer downloads/videos in my archive files and many cannot be found anymore. However, I cannot find any of the original creators because they have moved on and many of their forums no longer exist. I haven’t the right to place them on any forum that permits downloading of such material. I have also noticed that, someone called anonymous has placed in the download section, many downloads that are not his or whoever it is that claims them as such. They don’t have that right to just download others work without permission to do so. I have been asked over and over for the Plasmafire mod because I have both, the server side and client side and with respect of CC and Bas and Crazy, I will not give it out to anyone without express permission from them of which, I have been asked not to do so.
I’ve been involved in Freelancer since May 2008, and have been a server operator/owner on many server since, however, not buy this name. Even some of those server have come and gone, I know many of you from them but, there are now unknowns showing up here without a server or even a forum to be review asking for info about how to change this or that in Freelancer and it has been freely given without even finding out who these people really are.
This is The Starport and I have no control what-so-ever as to how you manage it. I’ve even lost access to the ServerOps and Admin section and I’ve never done any harm here at all. I can’t even edit my servers post do I just deleted it altogether. Have been a member here since the very beginning of the start of Starport.
Idk FF, FS, things have definitly changed here.

This “Anonymous” person you speak of is just the old TLR archive which we’ve always had hosted here for over a year. That you hadn’t noticed previously is none of my concern. TLR is gone, we’ve picked up their data and put it back online. We’ve repeatedly said that if you don’t want your download available here, you can contact us and we’ll pull them. We’ve never been contacted. If they aren’t happy with it, either email us or shut up. Seriously.
I prefer having this archive available than not just because we haven’t been given specific permissions from all the authors, many of whom have left FL and are unreachable. It’s a simple matter of community service. I don’t think we’re doing anything wrong here: we’re giving free bandwidth and hosting for mods which otherwise would’ve disappeared from circulation, all while letting people pull downloads they don’t want to see on.
As for your last paragraph, I am seriously tired of you repeating the same thing over and over. The groups were reset because they were not transferable from SMF to Xoops/CBB (a technicality, nothing more!), and not (as I told you thirty times already) because of anything to do with you. We’ve asked people to resubmit their application, we’ve added everyone who still run a server again. I see you should have access. You’ve told me you did not; I looked about and tried fixing things, but ever since you haven’t told me anything about it so I assumed it was working. That you still can’t access it is something I could not know about. Or have you even tried recently? We’ve fixed a lot of things since the last PM I sent you. I’ve also made fixes for the old posts specifically for you and it was all fixed, but naah, you prefer complaining about it again.
Yes, things have changed, but not just on our end. I’ve been doing my best to help you but you always respond negatively, what’s up with that?
