Offset question
-
Some help here…
Well, I’m messing around with the offset values, and I wanted to change some things…
In the offsets doc by Dev and other FL modders, it sometimes says about some values which I just can’t found in the DLL’s/FL.exe. In the place of e.g. 10000i, it appears something like (some large number)e-10. And yes, it’s the FLOAT value.
So, what I need to do?Also, I saw that in the document:
0x0f85->0x90e9 in freelancer.exe, 0xd5936 = remove cruise speed display limit of 300 (in other words, change 0x0f85 to 0x90e9; this hack was found by someone else)
0xd5936 = 1.1Okay-dokey, how I’ll change the hex codes? It’s talking just about the float values of these hex codes? If no, HOW I can change’em?
I think that’s it for now.

You need to make sure your using the correct Freelancer.exe, the one that installs from the game disk is of no use for hex editting, you need the “unwrapped” noCD exe that was made about 4 years ago. You’ll find a copy over on http://gamecopyworld.com/, it’s the one called “Freelancer v1.0 [ENGLISH] No-CD/Fixed EXE”.
In case anyone’s interested you’ll also find the official noCD exe from the budget releases on there, it’s the russian version but that means nothing as it’s identical to the german & english versions, it’s 700 Kb smaller than the regular exe as all of the CD protection has been removed.

I always used the GameCopyWorlds’ NO-CDs, including this one for Freelancer, so I’m already using this version…

So, what I need to do?The letter at the end of the number is i instead of f, so you should be interpreting the value as a word instead of a float.
