Access denied when trying to complete mission 9

badsandwich

Hi there
This is my first post here- thanks for this great resource.

I wonder if someone can help- I am currently playing through the vanilla FL campaign and have got as far as mission 9: Return The Proteus Tome.

I complete all the objectives, get to the Chugoku Jump Gate and am told to make the jump.

However, when I try to do this I am simply told “access denied”. I have unsuccessfully googled for a solution to this, as well as reinstalling FL, retrying the mission several times- it just won’t let me through.

Does anyone know of a way around this? Or does anyone have a save game from just after this point I can use?

Thanks

it’s been too long since i played all the way through to remember details

But can i ask are you using a mod
i vaguely remember a situation using one of the speed mods
that i would get there to fast and the leader or the one telling me to advance was to far behind that is not close enough to trigger the trigger but i assume if that where the case with your problem you would have tried to initiate again

but if your using a mod ……Sorry i can’t help
was just a thought

Hi thanks for the reply. No I don’t have any mods enabled. I’ve also tried doing everything as slowly as possible to ensure everything triggers in the correct order. Also I’ve noticed that if I get to the jump gate too early, it actually gives me a slightly different message if I try to dock (something like “gate is locked”).

Shoot Well this one’s in the hands of the profesionals then

Good luck and welcome aboard

If I remember Mission 9: Return the Proteus Tome correctly, you launch from Tekagi’s base, then fly towards the jump hole with Hakkera. Juni, some Dragon ships and a couple of Rheinland gunboats with KNF escort appear. Destroy the hostiles, then proceed to the jump hole.

Yes, that’s exactly what I’ve done- no dice.
I’ve attached the save game if anyone wants to take a look.

OK I hacked my save game together with bits of a save game on gamefront and retried the mission and was able to go through the jump hole.

If you have the SDK, goto the mission09.ini and look for the trigger called commcomplete_DX_M09_0690B_HAKKERA.

it will look like this…

[Trigger]
nickname = commcomplete_DX_M09_0690B_HAKKERA
Cnd_CommComplete = DX_M09_0690B_HAKKERA
Act_ActTrig = jumped_to_ku06
Act_SetNNObj = mlog_take_the_jumphole_back_to_ku06
Act_PlayerCanDock = false, Ku07_to_Ku06_hole
Act_ActTrig = syx_ku07
Act_NNIds = 30925, HISTORY

Now make it look like this…

[Trigger]
nickname = commcomplete_DX_M09_0690B_HAKKERA
Cnd_CommComplete = DX_M09_0690B_HAKKERA
Act_ActTrig = jumped_to_ku06
Act_SetNNObj = mlog_take_the_jumphole_back_to_ku06
Act_PlayerCanDock = true, Ku07_to_Ku06_hole
Act_PlayerCanDock = true
Act_LockDock = Player, Ku07_to_Ku06_hole, unlock
Act_ActTrig = syx_ku07
Act_NNIds = 30925, HISTORY

Now it has no choice but to let you thro,
enjoy.

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

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.
