FLMM Compatible. Please note that FLMM does NOT allow activation of mods that will conflict with this. Please see the mod readme for indepth detail of what this mod does.

Download the 1.6 FLMM Version ---------- 1.6 Readme.txt

Download 1.6 RAR Version

The website is also now up but I am still working on it, slowly

Reynen Client / Server Mod Website

It is about 2.3 MB and I HIGHLY recommend NOT running any other mods with it as it changes over 110 files. I will try and include all the other mods for FLMM with this mod, assuming the authors don't have a problem with that.

Please see the readme for complete details, this mod is HUGE and completely revampes the Freelancer universe!

Enjoy! This is over a months worth of work so I hope you all really like it. Please post comments and feedback!

I will be hosting a server with this installed. Look for Reynen's Mod Server.

Battleships are included. Take a look again

Also to explain the reason why I did some of the number the way they are.

Lets use a saber with 10 Elinators vs a battleship.

With the power drain the way it is. They will be able to fire to 10 seconds before they need to stop and recharge. A single fighter *should* have a hard time taking out a battleship, I designed the system this way.

Dmg done by fighter in 10 sec = 250,000
Battleship at 250,000 Shields, 500K hull
10 sec goes by, battleship gains 100K to shields, total time = 20 sec
BS now at 350,000 shield and 500K hull

Fighter fires again for 10 sec = 250,000
Battleship at 100,000 Shields, 500K hull
10 sec goes by, battleship gains 100K to shields, total time = 40 sec
BS now at 200,000 shield and 500K hull

Fighter fires again for 10 sec = 250,000
Battleship at 0 Shields, 450K hull
10 sec goes by, No regen due to shield up time, total time = 60 sec
BS now at 0 shield and 450K hull

Fighter fires again for 10 sec = 250,000
Battleship at 0, 200K hull
10 sec goes by, No regen due to shield up time, total time = 80 sec
BS now at 0 shield and 200K hull

Fighter fires again for 10 sec = 250,000
Battleship Destroyed - Total time 90 seconds

This is assuming the battleship is just sitting there and doing nothing

So this will make it much more enteraining and rewarding for people playing MP

I can appreciate the fine work you've done here. But please stop making your topics bold.

Or making them italics, there's no need to make your topics "stick out." If they have good content, they stick out on their own, right?

Sorry

Guess I need a new way to make the title stick out.

Edit:

If your title isn't interesting or doesn't catch their eye they will never see your content

Hull Batteries = 100

IMHO, the amount is too small, since you have about 700k for a ship's hull
make it 500, maybe.

Fri Mar 28, 2003 5:47 am by reynen

Since it only takes 1 to completely recharge your shields or hull 500 is a bit excessive dont you think. I want them to be tough, not invunerable hehe.

With the BS using thier recharges it would take the defender using all its weapons (Defender is the middle of them all) at least 15 min to a half hour to take it down, depending on how good they are. That is if the BS doesn't kill them first.

I want the victory against a BS against someone in a fighter to be rewarding, not ho-hum, rack up another one.

Just wanted to clarify for all I'm not making uber fighters that can take out a BS in one hit. I am trying to make the mod challenging, exciting, and different from the orginal game.

Sure cheats and uber ships are great, but they really do take the fun out of the game after awhile. You also don't learn anything that way.

Ex ( One of my favorites manuvers is fire at an oncoming enemy and then blow past them, then kill my engine and spin around. Fire my missles and then hit my engine again and after burner and chase after em. )

This game has alot of potential for good piloting moves. You have to want to learn them and for that you need a reason.

Nope, it does not take only 1 nanobot to repair 700k hull, it takes more than 50 to do that. The more hull you have, the more nanobots u need.
Same thing as shield.
