Hello Freelancers!

I am Louva-Deus from the =EOA= Players Consortium.

I have been playing Freelancer and developing software and mods for it since August of 2003, so pretty much 5 years. Some of my contributions have been: the Freelancer SDK, which has become a staple of the mod maker’s arsenal; the Freelancer QuickFix Patch, which has become an essential game update for a better gaming experience and includes new video hardware support for the game; the Freelancer Web Launcher, which is included in the QuickFix Patch and creates a new freelancer:// link protocol that allows players to click on a link on a webpage and load the game to a specified server; the HardCMP Editor, which I conceptualized and designed and my good friend Colin Sanby coded that makes hardpointing Freelancer models quick and easy; and many more.

I have also been involved in administrating several Freelancer communities as well as being an administrative consultant to many others, including The Starport. I am the founder and project manager of the =EOA= Players Consortium, which is an organization of talented Freelancer community members who have dedicated their best efforts to making quality software, mods, and more for Freelancer and various other games.

Despite my many contributions to the Freelancer community I also have a bad reputation, mostly due to my seeming talent for being misconstrued and being the target of wild presumption. For the sake of not sounding arrogant, though, I will say that I certainly started the process by not being clear enough to get my points across. To any who may still hold a grudge against me, I apologize for my lack of clarity. I have never tried to cause anyone problems.

And I will stop there. All you need to know is that I don’t bite, I’m friendly to pretty much everyone, I’m always looking for new talent to put to good use, and I will always stand up for what is right and protect those under my care.

LouvaDeus
