Freelancer Full-HD (download on first page)

Hi, never really done much on the star port… well nothing actually, but I like this Mod. So I have a question, Halloween said he tried it with Disco but I didn’t really understand if he got it to work or not, he was very vague. I’m wanting to use this with Disco 4.84 for the SP campaign due to never really finishing it. I just don’t know if it will work or how to go about installing it. I did DL it and install it via the exe method which i believe is the normal way, then it worked right until I undocked from Manhatten. So is did i screw up or is there another way for this to work with Disco 4.84 SP. I’m not trying to play with it on a server, just for the campaign.

Hi there.
I have updated the Download-Section.
Just download the “Textures only” for using the
Textures with other Mod´s.You need to do for Discovery:
Fresh Freelancer-Instal -> instal the DiscoveryMod
-> go to X:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Freelancer\DATA and drop all files from the RARArhive-DATA-Folder, in there. Overwrite existing files.Hope i could help you.

indeed it is, i tested the new package again and it’s much better!(!!) The sunlight reflections are good now and all the details are also visible. Seen from the current package, ppl can see how much effort you was putting in all the details.
Just one bug or simply our mods settings idk yet - the planet rings are not visible.
I am sure that we will use your textures in the third planed sector of SoF.
Thanks a lot for your work, ofc. credits will be proper placed it’s great stuff and was for sure a lot of work.
Thanks again for sharing it

I’d like to post this here, I have used Hrimthur’s and other people’s content to make a graphical compilation.
It’s intended use is on Discovery (Hence the reason why some files could not be used, to maintain compatibility) but it can be used with Vanilla as well.
Once again big thanks to Hrimthur.

Hi Hrimthur,
I installed your file on my Win8 x64 machine but now freelancer crashes as soon as it tries to start. Also, is there a way to uninstall?
Can I send you a log file somehow so you can see why it crashed?

Hi Bojamijams, no sorry there is no way to unintall you nee to reinstal the game. Small tip: you can make a copy of the Freelancer-directory in X:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\ and using this copy as test-directory. So you still have an original everytime.
But try following: C:\Users\XXXXX\Documents\My Games.
Rename the “Freelancer” Forder there to “Freelancer_Original”
or somthing like that. And try to start again. If not helps, try to rename the “d3d8.dll” to “d3d8.dll.back” in X:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Freelancer\EXE.Hope that was helpfull, Regards
btw. you can copy yor savegames except for “restart.fl” later from renamed Freelancer-Folder to the new one and use it again.

renaming d3d8.dll fixed it!
Do I lose out on some effects because this is no longer loaded or does the d3d9 take over everything?
If I lose some stuff, what do you recommend to make d3d8 work?

Well this is interesting. Looks like me renaming d3d8.dll and the game launching was just a fluke because today it wouldn’t launch again. Same thing happens… I quickly see the Freelancer splash screen then back to desktop… then 5 seconds later a notice telling me it crashed.
But I KNEW it worked and I didn’t change anything. So I just kept launching it. And on the 4th try it ran just fine. I put in d3d8.dll and it ran again. Then after I quit and tried again it wouldn’t until I tried about 3 times.
Really weird. Never had this happened to me before but… I guess I have a workaround. I just hope this doesn’t suddenly stop working one day

Sorry for the necro, but how do I get rid of this god awful reticle? It’s highly annoying when it keeps swapping constantly when you target an enemy and untarget. It’s a massive eyesore.
Rest of the textures are great. Only gripe is that reticle.
