Dev's Limit Breaking 101 Techniques

1.1 content.dll c2946 5000 longint = distance from the player below wich npc spawning at tradelane ring is rejected(spawning is transfered to the next ring)~Vital

@Fox: Here’s a reprint of a few you haven’t indexed. I haven’t included the wireframe equipment one.

common.dll	0E698E	7C->EB = some planets keep on spinning ~adoxa

freelancer.exe	1D8D08	1500f = maximum distance to initiate trade ~adoxa

common.dll	0D670F	C644243001->E947FFFFFF = suns will honor visit flag ~adoxa

Thanks, I’ll put those in. I was bookmarking posts containing offsets for a while, but now that bookmark tab is huge and needs to be cleaned, so I lose track pretty easily.

Edit: Done. Now to resist heating up pizza instead of going to sleep; it’s almost 5AM after all…

[adoxa]

Yeah, I’ve started keeping them myself, so I don’t have to go searching before you index.

Heh, your almost 5am is my almost 7pm. It’s now just shy of 2am here, and I’m off to bed.

For those who don’t use FLHook, I think this should be added to the list:

server.dll 3A068 8b = maximum group size PART 1  ~Unknown

server.dll 3A46E 8b = maximum group size PART 2 ~Unknown

I found the offsets in FLHook’s hook.h.

I have a friend over in Melbourne I communicate with fairly regularly. YOU’RE FROM THE FUTURE.

And, uhh, right, I’ll get those group offsets in the list.

Is there a way to aktivate the collisiondetection on Server for NPCs and Loot and so on?

Well, I don’t know about the veracity of this method, but here’s a patch that disables turning collision detection off (for everything). If it works (or even if it doesn’t), I’ll at least have a starting point, but it’ll be quite some time before I have a proper look.

common.dll	0258EB	8B4C24086A0151->6A016A01909090 = always enable collisions ~adoxa

[Syd]

doesn’t work for me
But its not important any more, the soccer Worldcup is over^^

btw. the FPS hack works for me, but I would not recommend it for SP. (It speed up FL)

[adoxa]

Well, I’m still curious, so if you’d like to try a couple more tests… Note: apply these separately, to see which one (if any) has the effect.

common.dll	021542	C4->00 = enable_collisions always true

common.dll	04D558	8A442438->B0019090 = enable_collisions_r always true
common.dll	04D6A6	8B7C2444->31FF4790 = part of above

```(The first patch was for SetCollisionState.)

Huhu in newest hhc mod they added the roll feature with your hack.
But now their is a bug that sometimes after you login or undock you have to press the key to activate roll or you are not able to fly in proper mouseflight. Maybe you know a way to fix it, my first idea was to make a hack to turn roll always on so I ask for such an hack

Those two are missing: http://the-starport.net/freelancer/forum/viewtopic.php?post_id=17618#forumpost17618

I also am looking for the dockpoint radius of tradelanes, since it is way too small for bigger ships.

[Guest]

I’m after this one as well

[foxUnit01]

Thanks guys, I’ll get the missing Waypoint ones in. Sorry I haven’t been around much, just been busy.

Edit: I’ve added adoxa’s turret view steering fix and the waypoint offsets to the list.

Do we know why in some mods the ship exit speed from jumpgates is zero?

Can it be fixed?

common.dll	13E678	2000f = how far behind a jumpgate a player will be spawned - from this point, the player will be thrown forward at exceptional speed until he/she has reached the gate ~fox
