This sounds great, one thing that has me asking questions is the docking to planets and stuff, you will need to make it so either the docking bays are MASSIVE or the ships dock to the outside

And for planets I don't think a starship entering the planet just to say hello is idea so maybe a Beam effect under the ship and or a SHuttle?

Also one thing that annoys me with freelancer is the planet and sun size, they are VERY VERY SMALL. I feel like I might accidently bump one out of the way sometimes, so it be REAL cool if you made the planets quite a big bigger, this would just add bundles to the realism and the fact you will have much more room to HIDE behind planets, dunno if you can make a upper amosphere but if you used a round layer of nebula gas or whatever it is you could make gas planets which you can fly in low orbit and use it for cover.. just a thought..

This mod is the best sounding so far, a total conversion with a LARGE selection of ships is just what Freelancer needs.. Warp will be cool if you add a warp effect

How about a Star Wars total conversion? That would be wicked.

Somebody else is already doing a Star Wars total conversion - as for other questions and suggestion, we are implementing warp ;-) and this will be a multiplayer only mod - right now anyway. We havnt looked into maknig SP missions, if you have any suggestions feel free to e-mail me ;-)

Will you include an Intrepid class?

If so the floating circles could be replaced with the landing strut/legs.

check out the forums for the very latest news here. But as an update, i will say, that we have put together a rather extensive ship list! and are experimenting with more and more ideas daily, we have also replace 30 or so existing sounds to that of star trek, and belive me, it sounds really star trek ! LoL.

Hehe, in case u didn't noticed (almost impossible, but telling anyway), some guy made a cloaking device, check the main page!

it would be sooo cool if Romulans and Klingons could cloak
If you where thinking about implementing this... would there be a way to let npc's cloak too? that would really rock!!

I'm looking forward to the mod, thank you guys for creating this, keep it up!!

the cloack he made is good, -but has not been perfected yet.

right now if ur cloacked, otehr cloacked people can see you, and it doesnt disable the weapons.

as soon as he can make it so firing is stopped, and no1 can see you, then i will be more than happy to use it.

I want Gorn Cruisers and Battleships.

Will this babe work with FLMM? Or if not, will it at least have some other "on/off switch" so you can change back and forth without totally screwing up Freelancer and half of your comp?

i think ur mod sounds great but the federation in star trek is gay, people are voilent and would kill all those gay aliens, so could u use some artistic interpretation and design some cool human battleships.

Guess what? When you use 'gay' as a derogatory term, people think you're stupid and ignore you.

well - as for the FLMM the FULL mod with all the music, sound effects, UI effects, new wepaon effects, new ships (theres nearly 100 of those or so) new systems...well u get the idea the FLMM just wasnt built to handle mods this extravigent.

So were goign to have different version of the mod to cater for peoples needs, a basic version that has just the well basic changes to the universe, witht he ships - tahts gonna be still alot larger than 99% of the mods around today - then theres the extra music pakcs, graphics pakcs e.t.c e.t.c

Were still working it out - but were going to use installers that overwrite and backup existing files for easy uniinstallation - but it will require a dedicated install...for the full version install :-) prepare for a big suprise
