Help for [Mission 03 error] Freelancer Original Story

selene

@ Pascal05

I was able to talk to the bartender and he said that Juni is on California Minor and then I went to the launchpad.

After the taking-off cut scene, the mission briefing window pops-up showing the waypoints to go to the New York -> California jump gate.

And then the problem occurs when I am about to get out from the planet to space. Juni should be talking to me saying that she was sorry about not meeting with me. Just like in the video I provided before.

So here is the cut version to where my problem is occurring.

Video cut version

@ Pascal05

You need my save file? But for what I said from my previous post that I am using a mod that might crash or not able to load to yours.

The mods that I have are not affecting the vanilla mission files. Because it is all about ships and weapons.

Maybe the reason is that I used the FLchecker and FLscan to scan for any errors and might have deleted some of those false errors before. In which I never knew that it will cause an error later.

@ khayman ; @ Pascal05

So anyway, here is my save file before talking to the bartender.

I saw that, now it would have to be, What is the Mods title.
Then we can see what the problem is.

Also, it is important whether you are using Mod Manager, and what version. Most people, such as myself us 1.4 beta. If you are not using Mod Manager and have inserted the files, that may be the problem. If that is true, install the manager. Then, go to the FreeLancer directory and delete it. Don’t bother to uninstall it. Your save are kept elsewhere, so they are safe. Re-install FL and open Mod Manager. You will need to add your mod, but once done start it and try again.

Keep one thing in mind, if you are new to Mod Manager. The saves will be made to a separate folder (named for the mod) so you can play different mods without confusion.

After modifying the save game to work with vanilla/JFLP (replacing ship and loadout), it worked fine for me. I thought it might be a version conflict (internal mission numbers changed) but no, it worked with both versions of content.dll. I don’t know what else to suggest (other than the usual fresh install).

Do you guys know what is the name of the trigger when Juni will automatically talk to me when I go out the planet just like what I posted from my last post which is the cut version of the video?

adoxa

[Trigger]
nickname = tr_0100_juni
system = Li01
Cnd_True = no_params
Act_ActTrig = com_0100_juni
Act_EtherComm = Juni, 216301, Player, DX_M03_0100_JUNI, -1, pl_female4_head, li_hatcher_body

```That's where she says "… sorry I couldn't meet you as planned ...". It's triggered when the launch is complete ([c]lcp_to_ca[/c]), which is activated when you talk to the bartender ([c]chs_bart_bar[/c]). The mission briefing is activated at the talk, as well, so if you're seeing that (triggered on entering space), I don't know why you're not getting the message. There are two previous launch triggers, so it shouldn't be that, unless it's ship-related, if you've changed ship between Missions 2 & 3 (I used an Eagle). FWIW, I've attached my save, just before the launch.

@adoxa

Thank you for the info. I used your save file and even you change your ship the trigger still does not work. I checked the M03.ini file and they are all linked/connected to each other.

sigh… I think I will let it go and move on. It really doesn’t work. Thank you guys for the help. adoxa, Pascal05 and khayman

Heya Selene!

Did you use some limit breaking 101 values?

adoxa

One more try - here’s a save (with your ship & loadout) in front of the California jump gate. On entering California you should have a cutscene with Rowlett.

selene

@ wasabitoy

Yes, some of it. Why?

@ adoxa

Thanks for the save file again but still the cutscene that you were referring did not initiate/show up.

wasabitoy

I see… that is why it is called “limit breaking” because it breaks some other triggers, values or parameters that will change how the game works.

My guess is if you used the “manually launch from docking bay (part 1) & (part 2)” for common.dll and server.dll, it might be the reason why Juni unable to contact you because when you go out in space, the game will initiate to let you manually undock from the docking bay and it will be confused because the original game never did that before.

So revert all changed values to its original values using any programs for editing hex values.

Let me know if this helped you.

selene

HOLY CRAP! OMG!! It worked. Thank you wasabitoy!

You the man! You always make my game fixed from errors and other stuffs to flawlessly work in my game.

And of course, thanks to other people who also helped me -> adoxa, pascal05 and khayman.

I can play the campaign again with my own mod in it. OMG!

wasabitoy

That’s great. I am glad I was able to help you and you are welcome.

So next time if your game is behaving differently or breaks again, just don’t forget to go back to limit breaking 101 to check what are the changes that you made before because you said that you used “some” other values that still might affect the game’s gameplay.

So that’s it… Problem solved!!!
