Hey Spawn;

The splash screen looks good! The only problem I have with it is that it doesn't look like Juni (face).

Ya... nice, but too dominatrix. I'm gonna have to go with Rey on this one. We don't want angry parents climbing down our throats... so to speak...

Still, tho, nice modelling.

And teh weird Freelancer coding conventions strike again!

I'm working on a new main menu background for the Rebalance mod... I'm putting in the new ships and stuff.... anyway... the thing is, I can't tell it to give each ship an engine, because the main menu is practically outside of Freelancer... it's all in lua code. anyhoo, that means I have to script and attach EACH engine fire for every ship... that means one on the liberty dreadnought, and somewhere around 9 for the Correlian Corvette... and there's over 30 ships to do 0_o

ehehehe... but it'll be worth it.... you'll see when the R mod is out.


On another note:

Things are progressing well on the mod as a whole.. bugs are being squishied... and the new docking system sounds cool, props to Duriel_LOP for that one.


And finally:

A while back, I mentioned thinking about doing a MegaMan Music replacement Pak, but It's not gonna happen. The sound files are just too big. I got the thing zipped up and it's like 70 meg.... besides... I don't nescessarily want to tangle with Capcom on legal rights and stuff...

Ahhh... legalities......

I have done a loading screen for my mod. (the one between the main menu and movies) it basically is the freelancer pic with my mods name underneath . I could do one for your mod if you guys would like.

Thx, but spawn has the art job allready.



Ok, guys, here's a link to my .thn scripting tutorial if anyone is intersted:

here

and a tutorial for weapon effect creation:

here

tell me what ya think. The weapon one is short, because I figured there were so many others out there, but I had written that to help another guy so I thought why not add it to the tutorial list.

Reynen: Found the server that has caused people to email you. It wasn't mine, but I found one called 'reynen's mod 2 server' which I hadnt seen before.

--------------------------------------------
Server Name: " Squalls Server (Reynen Mod)"
Server IP: 81.174.136.235:2302
Players: 10

For those of you who are having problems with the weapon platforms on missions 8, do the following.

Search the file M08.ini and find the following.

Cnd_WatchTrigger = platform2, on

Change this value to OFF

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you run 1.1 server patch and try to play mods they WILL NOT WORK. MS has made it so once you patch the game it can no longer be modified.

Fair warning. If you upgrade forget playing any mods.

And Microsoft scores again...

rant:

Ya sometimes have to wonder... why let Microsoft have ANYTHING to do with a game? They killed Dungeon Siege by never releasing a stable editor, and only ever had one patch. Now, they've come and eaten Freelancer. Do you realize, the game was supposed to have:

Buyable Engines, Powersuppies, Scanners, Weapon Cooling Devices (Which therefore points to a weapon overheating system) BS encounters, weapon upgrades, selectable MP characters, etc.

But no, Microsoft canme and said: "Is it playable? good. We ship it tomorrow."

All hail the almighty $

/rant

sometimes (sometimes?!) I hate Microsoft...

hahahah nice rant bob, nothing compared to one of mine, many of which have gotten me banned from message boards. WOuld like to post up the new start screen but im trying to overclokc my vid card (Radeon 9500 pro.) hope i dont fry the sonbitch

Post Sun Jun 08, 2003 2:34 am

Luckily, i already have Reynen's Mod installed when I ran the patch, so now my config is forever to be Reynen's Mod - and if there's an update - or I decide to switch to this other prject - then I'll just clean install each time - its not like Im a busy man.

be careful with the overclocking, spawn. ya can fry the board or hardlock or who knows what.

I'm gonna take a look at the patch... I'll see if I can find a workaround for the mods...

Allright, kiddies, heres a list of what the new Freelancer 1.1 patch changes/replaces:

Freelancer\DLLS\BIN\Content.dll
Freelancer\EXE\CheatMessages.txt
Freelancer\EXE\Common.dll
Freelancer\EXE\DALib.dll
Freelancer\EXE\FLServer.exe
Freelancer\EXE\ReadmePatch.htm
Freelancer\EXE\RemoteClient.dll
Freelancer\EXE\Server.dll

The .txt and .htm files are the ones that were added. I can't tell with ResHacker what was changed, since most of the stuff in the dll's is not in the range of reshacker.

Thanks for the concern bob, i upped the core speed by 25, 275 to 300mhz. so far no breakdown. HAHAH now they have a skit on tv, Lord Of the Bling, the two ta-tas

Post Sun Jun 08, 2003 6:19 am

lol!

Ya, 25 shouldn't be too hard on it. just make sure it isn't getting too hot. Look for Motherboard Monitor online. It interfaces with your motherboard to check heat levels of the cpu and stuff. won't neccessarilly be able to check the video card, but you can get an idea of your overall heat inside your box.

Squall:

I didn't notice you said this. As I said earlier if you patch with a mod already installed the mod should work just fine. It's just patching the original files then running a mod that causes problems. Go ahead and disregard my email

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Bob:

Are you sure that is all it modifies? Anyway it seems like I was right when I said it looked liked it was checking against the resources. I too looked through the files and can't find exactly what was changed. I wish I knew what they exactly did.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm sure someone will figure it out eventaully.
