Dev's Limit Breaking 101 Techniques

I’m sure there was/is a plugin for this, damn my memory, maybe its scroll.dll.
An older version of my mod used it (I think), i’ll check my old pc over the weekend and let ya know if I find out.

bump…

would be really awesome to have a fix for this.

Hiya sorry for the late reply i totally forgot about this… i did look on my old pc and searched through the mods on it but never found it.
Although i’m sure it was a plugin that was meant for something else. (thats why i mentioned scroller.dll).
Sorry i havent been much help, i will keep looking.

I have a Scroller plugin, but that’s for the ship stats.

Is it possible to change the preview size of the ship?

As it turns out, Freelancer already has code to scale the ship preview, but it ignored it and used a fixed size. Of course, using the calculated scale will make smaller ships appear slightly bigger (presumably why it was made fixed - to preserve relative sizes), and it still doesn’t quite get it right for large ships, but it’s most definitely an improvement.

In searching for the scale, I also discovered the ability to rotate the preview. Rotating around X & Y works as expected, but rotating around Z just looks like a slightly different X.

freelancer.exe	0B7B85	0f = degrees to continuously rotate ship preview around X axis ~adoxa
freelancer.exe	0B7B90	0f = degrees to continuously rotate ship preview around Y axis ~adoxa
freelancer.exe	0B7B9B	0f = degrees to continuously rotate ship preview around Z axis ~adoxa
freelancer.exe	1855C0	74->EB = scale ship to fill the preview ~adoxa
freelancer.exe	0B8EFA	162.581f = initial degrees of ship preview around X axis ~adoxa
freelancer.exe	0B8F02	-71.6442f = initial degrees of ship preview around Y axis ~adoxa
freelancer.exe	0B8F0A	0f = initial degrees of ship preview around Z axis ~adoxa

In searching for the scale, I also discovered the ability to rotate the preview.

:lol: yes just left or right mouse click on the preview.

freelancer.exe 0B8BAB 01->00 = scale ship to fill the preview ~adoxa

works! thank you.

Works great. Thank u so much…. again !

:lol: yes just left or right mouse click on the preview.

:oops: Can’t believe I never tried that (or maybe I did long ago and forgot about it). Anyway, the rotation I found happens continuously, so I’ve updated it to make that clearer. I’ve also added the initial values.

Cool!

@adoxa “scale ship to fill the preview” not work for the preview playership

Updated.

Always advancing the cause, thanks adoxa

This is good, thank you

Thank you Adoxa!

Okay, here’s a fun one.

Does anyone have an idea of how to decrease the width of the blue lines drawn on the universe map between connected systems? We’ve got a bunch of systems in Broken Bonds that are fairly close together and as a result the big thick blue lines cover up our nice shiny universe map background.

Thanks,

freelancer.exe	0974C9	0.005f = width of system connection line ~adoxa
freelancer.exe	097501	00 = red component of system connection line ~adoxa
freelancer.exe	097506	40 = green component of system connection line ~adoxa
freelancer.exe	09750B	80 = blue component of system connection line ~adoxa
freelancer.exe	097510	FF = alpha component of system connection line ~adoxa

You’re my favouritest person ever, adoxa. I aspire to have FL disassembly/hacking skills like yours.

Broken Bonds thanks you for your awesomeness.

EDIT: Now if only I could get the “star” images to remain at full size….

freelancer.exe	0915F4	2000i = size range of universe map stars ~adoxa
freelancer.exe	091605	3000i = minimum size of universe map stars ~adoxa
freelancer.exe	0916F2	03C2C1F80F->B80i000000 = color of universe map stars (i=0-6 for RGBCMYW) ~adoxa
freelancer.exe	0916FE	8403->0000 = prevent universe map stars from pulsing PART 1 ~adoxa
freelancer.exe	09173A	C1F80F->83C8FF = prevent universe map stars from pulsing PART 2 ~adoxa
freelancer.exe	0A1727	D8642410->90909090 = prevent universe map stars from blinking ~adoxa

Where do I go about donating to your beer fund, man?

EDIT: Definitely don’t have 2000i or 3000i at those offsets – looks like 0i and 4096i respectively.

I believe adoxa uses the official No-CD for all of his offsets instead of the cracked one. Some of the offsets differ.
