what if ur using a mod to skip the story line? anyway to change the starting price?

Sorry changed the post because I thought you were talking about SP

Well, if you're going to host your own server for yourself to mess around with, go to your Freelancer directory and go to your EXE folder (example: c:\program files\microsoft games\freelancer\exe) and find the "mpnewcharacter.fl" file. Open it up with notepad and change

money = %%MONEY%% (or whatever it says)

and change it to

money = 999999999 or whatever you want.

It won't work on a public server, that's another file that I don't even know about so don't ask.

Thanks, what about for sp tho? i tried going into newchar and putting in 99999999999999 credits but its like "screw u" and the mod i use keeps me at 0.

I don't know if putting anything over 999,999,999 works or not.

As for SP... hmmm... well I'm not sure. I just prefer to host my own server whenever I want to fool around with a ton of money. Don't have to worry about any mods that remove the storyline that way.

yeah but the new mod manager doesnt like servers.

i still cant get the damn money.....

You could use a trick... If you edit the cargo in the file located at Freelancer\Data\Ships\loadouts.ini. Use Bini to decompress the file. Note, the new filename that you need to edit is: loadouts.ini.txt and after you have made your changes, you must do 'save as' and 'cut' the '.txt' extention from his name.

Ex:
----

[Loadout
nickname = msn_playerloadout
archetype = ge_fighter
equip = ge_gf1_engine_01
equip = shield01_mark01_lf, HpShield01
equip = ge_fighter_power01
equip = ge_s_scanner_01
equip = ge_s_tractor_01
equip = ge_s_thruster_01, HpThruster01
equip = li_gun01_mark01, HpWeapon01
equip = li_gun01_mark01, HpWeapon02
equip = LargeWhiteSpecial, HpHeadlight
equip = SlowSmallOrange, HpRunningLight01
equip = SlowSmallOrange, HpRunningLight02
equip = SlowSmallOrange, HpRunningLight05
equip = contrail01, HpContrail01
equip = contrail01, HpContrail02
equip = DockingLightRedSmall, HpDockLight01
equip = DockingLightRedSmall, HpDockLight02
cargo = ge_s_battery_01, 3
cargo = ge_s_repair_01, 3
cargo = commodity_cardamine, 20 ; <-- ADD THIS LINE HERE

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: Don't forget to hit the key 'SPACE' after the last edited line or if you just use 'copy'/'paste' you must include the space, too. 'Cut' this text: ' ; <-- ADD THIS LINE HERE'.

The number that follow 'commodity_cardamine, ##' is the max. cargo of your ship.
Next, all that you have to do is sell all the cargo at the local market.
If you start in Manhattan, cardamine = $1500 x 20 units = $30000 bucks!!!!!!!!
- 'Not bad for a start, rookie!'

....ill stick to simple moding...if i get anyfurther than that i mighjt end up killing the world....its happened before.
