Mount/dismount equipment in space
-
Here’s the thing about new functionality, too. It’s hard. There are a small number of us that are capable of doing things like that, and they all have limited time. Sometimes Adoxa swoops in with some magic, sometimes he doesn’t.
As FF says, it just comes off as a little… entitled. Especially when, for all intents and purposes, you ask for something, you get that thing, and then you ask for more. People like you (yes, sweeping generalization for newer modders) tend to be somewhat parasitic. The attitude doesn’t help matters much more.

I am sorry for the attitude that I have shown. My intentions were not like the other players that you two were saying.
In return I “thank” or “praise” the modders who made an awesome feature for the game and also who helped to solve (an) issue(s). I am not like the others who just downloaded it and did not leave a comment. I know it is not enough to say thank you but what else can I do? I am no professional on programming a game. I am just a player who also plays the game the same as like you and btw, I also do want to contribute in this community but tbh, I have no skills to prove. I am here just to support for the Freelancer fan community.
Again, I am sorry to make you guys feel that way.

Wooh! hold your horses… easy with the little girl guys… lol!
By the way, I am the one who asked about this feature and not selene. Well she also likes to enable it but things got worst eh…
Well selene if you want to enable it, you ask adoxa by emailing him if he will do it for you.
But I already did that last 3 weeks. adoxa told me that he has that feature somewhere in his hard drive but I am not sure about it. He said that if he got a new computer he will helped me to enable the “mount and dismount while in space” feature.
Just be patient like what I told you before. And wait for adoxa to return and read our messages. I hope that he got a new computer with extreme graphic card and awesome huge memory. FTW! hehe!

I did get a new computer (Core i7 3.4GHz 3770, 8GB RAM, but only Intel HD4000 gfx), so I’m getting used to Win7 and 64-bit. Working on CMDkey atm, then it’ll have to be ANSICON, then I’ll see about getting into some FL stuff (you just got lucky with Hail).
-
Damn man, you’re tempting me to ship you a proper GPU once and for all.
At least the other specs are awesome
-
Unless you’re bloody insane, that CPU is the best money can buy right now.
For a work computer, it’s top tier.
-
It was quite a bargain, as I was really only expecting to get an i5. I was going to upgrade to a Radeon HD7770, but lacking a credit card, eBay wouldn’t let me add it. Just means I should be able to wait a while and get a better card for the same price… Anyway, I shouldn’t really need a card until SC comes out…
-
This is a standard feature in GE, you can mount/unmount at any point either in a ship or as a character. I wish I had this ability when I used to play FL so I added it to my game… I wouldn’t be surprised if it simply turned out to be a ‘in space’ check that is blocking it.

@kosacid: Tried that briefly back when it was v2 I think, but didn’t really like it. At 100MB for the current version, I’m not bothered to try again, as Virtual PC 2007 supports DOS better (didn’t like Windows Virtual PC, either) and qemu loads the Win8 rescue disk (neither VPC did, nor did Bochs).
Only have a partial solution for (un)mounting in space. Getting the icon to work was trivial, but unfortunately actually making the equipment work is a whole other matter. So, atm, just save/load in SP, or reload your character in MP (provided your server allows that and applies the patch).
Freelancer.exe, 07F5B1, 75->EB, enable (un)mount in space PART 1 Freelancer.exe, 07FB0C, 29->00, enable (un)mount in space PART 2 server.dll, 037432, 75->EB, enable (un)mount in space PART 3 (server-side only) -
WOW! thx adoxa. it works but the equipment are not working when you mount/dismount it while you’re still in-game. it only works when you save then load the game just like what you just said.
maybe a plugin/.dll will fix it.
great job on finding it.

there was lots of stuff i worked on that didnt work for the same reason, the game needed a reload, i tryed a few things but didnt get them to work all it needs is to simulate a f1 or a jump into a new system basicly to make the reload but the same system if you know what i mean,
i tryed both but just got crashes
but basicly both reload`s the char and system
i tryed moving jump holes and planets bases live prob was the ones in that system didnt see the changes till f1 or jumped out in -
Bumping this old thread as I’d like this kind of feature for a mod I’m making.
Since the game doesn’t allow (un)mounting while in space because of some refresh dependency, here’s my crazy idea:
Make the game pause when the inventory window opens, and force it to autosave and reload once it’s closed.It’ll probably work only for SP, but is it feasible? Or is it really just a crazy idea?
