If you want to make a natural, logical, lore based Freelancer expansion i would love to help out in any way i can.

Voted, i hope they make it happen, they usually add goodies too.

You really are the magician everyone talks about. Thanks, i will try that when i get home and post the results here.

If it was to get widescreen, I would recommend JFLP - that adds your desktop resolution to the list and makes all the necessary changes to do it properly.

Yes i know, I’m a regular visitor of your site. I was asking about ways to reproduce that and maybe control it, it’s a shame we can’t see the helmets of pilots, they have a lot of detail and cool logos.

Why didn’t anybody tell me that cockpits can be made to look like this?

It’s a lot better if you ask me, you can see some detail inside your ship, the original view makes no sense.

Also, while messing around with the resolution i made the npcs talk to me like this

I have no idea how i did that, i would like to know if anyone can help me.

I am having problems opening the exe, mainly it opens and closes almost instantly. I am not sure if i am using it properly, i just unzip it. Using windows 7 x64 if that matters in any way.

Ah, nevermind, Kazinsal showed me, i’m stupid.

I need more details, how did you calculate those scale factors relevant to the pilot model?

Thank you very much for your answer Sizer. I hope i will finish this model soon and i will post it for some constructive criticism.

Similar question, i think.

Can i have some faces that pass through each other?
I’m working on a model and it needs to have elements from another ship, so i took the wings from there and i want to add mounts now, will this work?

Actually if you compare those window sizes (and for the Rheinland BS it’s weapon platforms) you see that Rheinland and Kusari Battleship should be scaled by factor 0.5. But then their hangars aren’t big enough anymore.

That might have been the reason why they scaled them up in vanilla, the hangars weren’t big enough and it caused problems with docking snubs.

From this discovery post here

I added all the capital ships in vanilla in one scene. I also added the Discovery Lib GB and the nom cruiser because they are of decent quality. The Kusary gb and cruiser are scaled 2x and the Rheinland, Nomad and Kusari battleships are scaled down 0.5x. Now we have a nice uniform picture.

I am sure there are better models for the Liberty GB and Nom cruiser. Kudos to Skotty for the idea of 2x scaling of the kusari caps.

Look at this for a list of the most active multi player servers. There are numerous single player mods, recommended one is Crossfire.

Is there anyone who knows more about interface editing? I played around with the beta files trying to copy them to a vanilla install and hopefully reenable the mesh viewer for the player ship. The files are very similar, beta has an aditional mesh entry to a .vms file in the hud_showinfo. I really hope that it’s not disabled definetly from the game engine.

I found a lot of good advice in this thread too. Before it derailed to crazy land.

Do you have another mirror for that last pdf?

I have been playing the first mission in the beta. I really love the way the ship handles, i never liked the absurd speeds and agility in vanilla. Is there any way to copy parts of the interface to a mod? Some of those things are really usefull.

Thank you for the advice and the tools, i downloaded big pack of them and sometimes i don’t know what is the best one to use.

What are some lessons you have learned from Freelancer while you have been modding and maintaing gaming communities all with Freelancer mods?

What advice would you give me if i wanted to make a mod that was pure vanilla but with enhanced online gameplay?

I’m still flirting with the idea and i tought it would be wise to ask the people who have been doing this for years, for advice before doing anything.

I am looking for a pack of all the discovery mods up to 4.84 I found a torrent named Legacy discovery with all of them but there are no seeds. Does anyone else have it?
