HCI that is relly cool. I can't wait to get my hands on the full version. This mod process is moving along really quickly. I am amazed at how fast you guys work. I enjoyed your Mods for Starlancer and want to help you guys in what ever way I can with Freelancer. I'm not much of a programer but I can read Hex and Binary. I am a networking major and a webdesigner. Let me know how I can help. e-mail is [email protected]

Excellent work HCl! This is good news indeed. I can't wait to get my hands on it

same here... if i can't play MOO3 (cause of a damn direct x bug :/ ) i can at least play _with_ Freelancer =

great work, tia

Thank you, the masses are grateful.

Wow this is great news! Good work!

Kickass, HCl!! *applause*

Building the GUI version should be very quick work, as well as writing the document that describes the compression method. Unfortunately however, i haven't had the chance to even begin, since today was a very busy day Since i don't want to keep you waiting any longer either, i've uploaded the command line version as it is, so you can start playing with INI files imediately, with the promise of having a version with a Windows GUI by the weekend at most The link is for the command line app is:

download

Dragging a single INI file into the EXE should produce a txt file.. for example, file.ini -> file.ini.txt , if you rename file.ini.txt to file.ini the game loads the uncompressed version as well as your modifications

This allows you to edit a lot of the game, but not everything. Different formats are used in ships ("UTF" and "vers", iirc) and mission code (Lua scripts, as far as i've been able to determine). I've done some work on the UTF format, although not much... I'll let you know as things develop!
