Creating new aliens

[sukothai]

Is there a way to create new aliens for Freelancer and if so what program should I use?

Plenty of ways to create Nomad like factions, with different names and ships, as you never see them. If you want talkative ones then you’d have to create those, plus do the animation etc. Bit of a task tbh.

I made talking monkeys in my mod, pilots etc, not really new as the items were already in game but unused. Made a custom faction for them with custom ships, all good to go. Only thing i added was the ships really, and dug around in the code.

Totally new stuff takes time and effort, on the scale you’re talking about, time is your enemy and the will to complete it. Plus the game engine is ancient now
