Asteroid Fields

Hey folks,
I was wondering, is there a way to have asteroid fields more than 130K from the system centre show up correctly and not just as small asteroids? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yep. That’s been cracked for a few months thanks to W0dk4.

It’s the last entry under system editing in the hacking wiki: http://the-starport.net/freelancer/wiki/index.php/Limit_Breaking_101#Credits

Thanks a lot for the quick help! Just one question: what should i replace the 1.74 with? Is 5.0 enough?

Thats the wrong hack, check this post:

Okay, open up common.dll (v1.1), jump to offset 0x460a9, change 7 to 8, same at 0x460af. That should increase it to ~260k (x and z, respectively; y remains at ~65k), presumably at the expense of removing them further from the center, from 256 to 512 (big deal). As you may have guessed by now, use 9 instead of 8 to increase to ~520k (1024 from the center).

Thanks very much! Could the 07 at 0x460ac be the value for y ?

Indeed it is.

Thank you for your information, but the existing hack doesn’t work for us.

Has anybody found a working solution other than the one posted?
