ok Spawn....lol since you have started skinning the ships i thik u mightbe able to help me. I have PSP7 and i have the UTF editor i know to a point what im doing since i have never really had a chance to do this its a good knock in the head to learn.Anyhow they way i have been coloring the ships seems tedious but i guess that is how it has to be done.....what i do is go in and edit the 256 by hand and color in the spots...lame i know but i cant figure out how else to do it....if you know something a little faster let me know...next would be i save the DDS. file back to the MIPS and when i go back into the game it shows up as a normal ship not the edited file that i made and took all that time to work on.WHAT FOR THE LOVE OF PETE AM I DONG WRONG!!!!...lmao

THe onlyquestion i have are you saving using the DT3 (explicitalpha) format and are you generating the Kip maps using the DDS plugin, for a 256 square it should be 6.

Cmdr. Hall:

Ok, but you have to start a new char or is doesn't work.


Rey:

The newcharacter.ini is set to make you only start with $20,000 again. did ya mean to do this?

ya spawn..im using the DTX3 alpha and the plug ins ... and the 256 i think it was on 5.... see i grabed a copy of the ship tut here on lancers i guess i miss read it or something.. but when u go to transfer it bact or "import" it asks to save as file type.... do i save it as a DDS. or MAT. or what?

Ok Bob...so just plug in the new file and create a new player or do i have to totally remove the whole server files?.

uh.... you shouldn't have to player wipe, but you DO have to make a new char for it to take effect. and the files have to be on both client and server. make sure ya put them in the right folders. I outlined it in teh email.

I will add the initialworld.ini I forgot to add that and that should fix the encounters. Really sorry about that everyone.

I am uploading version BETA 6b, just so there would be no confusion....it will be finishing uploading soon, please download the new version and let me know how things go with the encounters.

Bob, that is EXACTLY why I say there should be a player wipe, existing players WILL NOT see the new stuff, or they will get errors. So that will cut the complains of "I don't see this, that, and the other thing...."

Also yes the 20K start thing is indeed intentional. With LOTS of people knowing the 1.2 mill route, there will be alot of rich people very soon.

some bugs/oddities:

I destroyed trenton outpost, then died, and the station came back. But it's hostile towards me. But it doesn't shoot me. and the docking ring likes me...

also: I shot 2 antimatter torps at the Rheinland BS and not only did they make the Liberty navy hate me, it shot almost all the guns off of the Rheinlanders. Gotta make their guns almost invincible I guess...

Just a little bug I found, When I went through the gate to Texas in my cruiser the game crashed!

Hmm, could anyone explain exactly what the encounters gimmick does? And where in librety they are most common? I know I should find out for myself, but I'm lazy. Surely thats something almost all of you can relate with!

Ok i replaced the files...i have to try them now... so rey u say i should just give the server a clean slate huh...OUCH!...lol *sigh* ok..

Greetings, I got the original version 6 to work and was still using my one and only older char. All of the stuff from the read me was there. I was using a Liberty DB and went to test the encounters. They worked great plenty of enemies to fight. Both fleets came in but by that time I had to leave or buy the farm. I did this several times and saw both fleets each time but it looked to me like I was the only target.

I went and traded ships for a tie intercepter and when I returned the only hostile ships were the ties. I never saw any bigger ships. The Green NPC ships did not try to shoot at the ties and they swarmed me, pretty good.

I tried the new anti matter gun and I love the effect when it hits the ships.

Great job to all on developing the mod

Ok released new version fixing some of the bugs, especially with the encounters.

Since this modified initialworld.ini.....yep you guess it,....clean slate. Better sooner then later right. Don't flame me too bad please.

Think of it this way...your players won't ever get bored LOL.

Please download the newest version from the links above.

I'm aware of teh darn file problem I have no idea what is causing it and I am starting to get really annoyed!! Everything works on my end.

After extensive testing with Cmd Hall we can't seem to find a solution for the CRC, so people are just doing to have to do this using the RAR version. Really sorry, no other choice.

TO install manually.

Unrar Reynenmod206b.rar
There will be a directory with the same name.
Find where you installed FLMM
something like c:\program files\freelancer mod manager
goto mods DIR, this is where all your mods are kept.
put Reynenmod206b directory into there.
You will then have a directory like this
C:\program files\freelancer mod manager\mods\reynenmod206b

Assuming you done the above correctly, run FLMM and activate the mod.

seems the rared did not work ether.

! D:\=freelancer=\Reynenmod206b.rar: CRC failed in data\Interface\Intro\Images\1280screen.bmp. The file is corrupt
! D:\=freelancer=\Reynenmod206b.rar: CRC failed in data\Interface\Intro\Images\startupscreen.tga. The file is corrupt


and for my speed and question about the location was just cus i think you Reynen is located somewhere in us and me are located in north europe in sweden.


and for the crc problem

for the rar version what program and version you use to make that ?

for the flmm version what program and version you use to make that ?
and how flmm do when it extract that file ? is it a build in 'zip' or it use the system to extract ?

I lurve the new antimatter guns! They lag my game if I dont turn down some settings, but they still rock!

As of 10:19 am EST Thursday the rar version from the above link has the above mentioned 2 CRC errored files. The FLMOD version doesn't even exist there at this time. I don't doubt that your local copy is good and has no errors, but your seeing errors in the upload. Wipe all caches before uploading and see what happens.
