ok..... i got the Initialworld file emailed from Bakedpotato... so it should work now.... it toook a while to dl the attachment because apparently my internet explorer has been smoking too much crack, had to use Netscape.

AGRGGG!!!! Why!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this is getting annoying, i got the file, but the jumpgates weree still locked.... so i saved and went into my save game edtor to change my level....(thought that it might have something to do with it) but after when i tried to fly from west point.... they kinda forgot the open the door..... lol

Hmm - more likely that they are all locked in your save file instead.....which means they are probs done by hash codes. You will probs have to start a new game instead - and not use the save game in order to open them up.

If its in Singleplayer - alot of gates are locked/unlocked as you go along to prevent you from leaving sectors!!! That will be why those don't work - as it states in each missions file.

ok.... so im using SP... so basically im stuck? is there any mod that i can jus play without a story, and go anywhere?

If you really want to travel in game, use Ioncross char editor. the link is in another of your posts. It will let you travel around a bit.

Well, there is the "no story" mod and the "go anywhere" mod if they are still available here.
