The Quest for a real SDK....

Anyone has any idea if there is a REAL SDK for Freelancer available somewhere?

The project currently labelled as 'Freelancer SDK' is only a pack of ini file to edit, I'm looking for a programming development kit.

Freelancer is a great game but there is so much missing that could easily be added if the fans had access to some of the source code...

We could always organize a commando strike team and go snatch the data *grin*

There is no "Source"code available. The SDK will let you mod a lot in the game, check the mods list of different things added from different system, planets, ships, stations, ect.

Awww crap.

Damn microcrap, Freelancer is just an other example of a great game wasted by the marketing division...

- Ok guys time out, give us the game!

- But but... it's not totally completed yet....

- Like we care, come on, spit out the good stuff, we have cash to do here

I believe the only thing not included with sdk is the dll's if you want you can decrypt them using ResHack. I'm pretty sure thats the only way to crack the hardcode without the sourcecode. and why does everybody hate microsoft for not releasing the sourcecode, it's not just microsoft, almost everbody refuses to release the sourcecode. If they do: everybody will deconstruct and reasemble the game, that means total chaos.

Chaos would not be the problem. It would planely be illegal. That would get you jail time. Modding though, is alowed and encouraged. Enjoy doing it, unless you know how to code, and then we await your new game design.

and lets face it if they gave us a fully functional SDK, how boring would that be , no challenge in making something new and maybe no community like we got here

If I could change one thing ONE THING. It would be the HUD. and maybe a jumpdrive which doesnt seem to exist right now *cough*shadow*cough*. Cause the HUD from some of the pictures is awesome, and so is the one from starlancer
