Trying to fix the Freelancer Graphics card bug

Fri Nov 12, 2004 4:26 pm by Zedicus

My brother has a Geforce FX 6800GT which he cant play freelancer with, I'm thinking of trying to make a mod so he can play it & could Use any input I can get.

I was thinking of simply changing the name in the flconfig file, but i havnt the fientest clue if that has been tried allready....

Well, we looked - we saw, we gave up

Doesn't mean its not something someone shouldn't look into - just means I got lost and didn't get it!

FLConfigdatabase.txt in the EXE Folder, HERE is an excerpt:
Interesting things to note - starting with my 9800 pro = error. Delete this file = no error. Add line for it without knowing what to do = still error (as in not as easy as i hoped), truth? This file aint the only one I am sure - something else.....but I don't have time to investigate all modding, whilst also living and learning new stuff too! Good luck, and let us know if you do make any headway!

The solution (or at least what works for my GeForce Ti4200 x8 which is not in the config file) is simply to add that config ID to the list.

nVidia device IDs from nVidia

ATI device ID table (up to 9700) from ATI Chart

Instructions for other ATI devices from ATI SoftUtils

With my card I can safely ignore FL's unrecognised hardware prompt but adding the relevant ID removes it. Hope these help

Dosnt have the 6 Seres in there...

Sorry, hadn't picked up on that... Found another way :

(This is for Windows XP but a similar approch should work fine for other versions)
Open Control Panel, then System and the Device manager button.
Click DIsplay Adapters from list, highlight your card and hit the properties button (or select from RMB menu).
Go to the Details tab and look at the long string. Near the start is DEV_xxxx where xxxx is your device id number to go in the config file.

My card is DEV_0281 so the line 0x0281 = "GeForce4 Ti 4200 with AGP8X" goes in the file. The string is just a description so put what you want there

Ok I spent about.. 4 hours updating the flconfig file and I need people to test and make sure it works. I have updated the ATI Radeon section and the nVidia GeForce section with most of the latest information available.

Enjoy! If this works out I will include this in my new SDK package.

Sweet! I'll check it out and test it when I get a chance. I haven't had any noticable problems with my GeForce 6600GT, but who knows- maybe my game will run even better

Wed Dec 22, 2004 9:19 pm by Louva-Deus

There shouldn't be any noticeable difference. This file just lets the game know about hardware/driver limitations with certain cards. Since the newest cards don't have any of those limitations it's pretty safe to just add the new device id's to the list.

Now, if only we could get FL to run at 1280x1024 and I'd be laughing.

Thu Dec 23, 2004 10:34 am by Louva-Deus

I think I heard someone who set it manually in their freelancer.ini file.

Zedicus,

I don’t know whether your brothers problem is solved already.
I had similar problems with my Ati Radeon X600XT card.
Getting the right name into the flconfigdatabase file is not going to solve anything. It will only take away the message from FL that it does not recognize the card. This file’s main purpose is to add additional parameters in case a card has some problems with FL’s 3D handling.
Here is a link to the technical issues forum to the thread I submitted to explain what I did to solve my problem.
http://www.lancersreactor.com/t/forum/t ... er&M=False
In the end it appeared that I did install FL with my virusscanner enabled, which affected the way the video drivers were connected.

Maybe your brother’s problem is of a similar nature.

So no more downloads/feedback? Can I remove the file from my server now?

Sun Dec 26, 2004 9:15 pm by Dark_Shadow2004

tahts strange you are having issues, i am using the PCI-Express equivilent of that card and it works just fine.
