Dev's Limit Breaking 101 Techniques

thx, but anyway I cant see objects on a greater distance then before…

I had assumed you’d already applied the maximum range patch.

freelancer.exe    1C8910    20000f = same offset as below, max distance at which ships can be seen (even if lodranges specify a higher distance) ~Dev
freelancer.exe    1C8910    20000f = same offset as above, poly flipping distance - raising this value stops graphical glitches on big CMPs, but raising it too high introduces flickering issues with SPH-based models (like planets) ~FriendlyFire

```This can be customized per system by using **space_farclip** in [SystemInfo].

freelancer.exe    0A8004    05->1A = show current worth in multiplayer ~adoxa

Works like a charm, thanks adoxa!

And what difference between 1C8910 and 1C8910?

None. The same offset addresses two issues.

Just to give some extra info, this is essentially the far clipping plane, as adoxa also found an ini var with the same name.

If you raise the far clipping plane too much, you will get flickering issues because of z-fighting. The z-buffer loses precision quickly in the distance, therefore the larger the area covered by your clip planes, the more z-fighting (-> flickering) you will get.

I wonder, is there any possibility to prevent ships from automatically re-orienting themselves after you’ve vanilla FL’s x-y plane?

This what you want?

Thanks alot, made my day Completely other topic, but would it be possible to override the turret/weapon/torpedo limit?

I’m not sure what you’re asking. If you want more weapons, you have to modify the ship’s cmp file and its shiparch.ini entry to add hardpoints. If you want more ammo, use [Constants] MAX_PLAYER_AMMO in constants.ini. If you want separate limits for each ammo type, use this.

Thanks for the reply What I mean is that there is a limitation for the maximal number of turrets/guns/torpedoes/mines/countermeasures you can fire simultaneously. If you go over 32 guns, the game will crash to desktop. Is there any hack that could do the trick?

freelancer.exe	11D072	8C->CC = allow 64 simultaneous firings PART 1 ~adoxa
freelancer.exe	11D7C2	8C->CC = allow 64 simultaneous firings PART 2 ~adoxa

Man, you really are a genius! I’ve been looking for a fix to that problem for nearly three years now and you don’t even need a single day to find one. Thank you very, very much!

a sorley needed & long sort after hack… thanks a zillion again AdoXa 8-)

Is there any way to prevent scanners from being transferable? So that you could have scanners being visible but not buy/transfer them from one ship to another?

Sorry - not smart to give you an answer and again sorry for hijack it!
1. But similar, I made new scanner which only one ship has it (nomad fighter) and is available trough /restart command. Also it suppose to be used for rep-fixer which through playercontrol plugin I can set it as item that cant be lost/seen.
This doesn’t work! Any hint why?

2. While I’m at this thread please give me next info.

What this suppose to show me? What worth? Where?
In contact list? Cash amount?

I did make a change to file but is it correct way?

A picture (or two) is worth a thousand words.

@Aigle: A little tricky. Simple enough to test scanner instead of engine.

freelancer.exe	0808AC	0C->14 = prevent transfer of scanner (but allows engine) ~adoxa
freelancer.exe	080941	0C->14 = prevent selling of scanner (but allows engine) ~adoxa

```EngClass bypasses this test altogether, though.

@sumanuti: It shows your current worth in the reputation window, like in single player. That is the correct way.

@DwnUnder: Not very helpful when you have to register first.

Thanks
