MOD: New Australia

Fri May 30, 2003 9:37 am by Hobbie

Beta 1 to be released soon!

I am planning to do a Mod for the Australian players of the game. It's a new house, of which the people are Australian.

Here's a list of all the things I want to add:
- 7 new systems, New South Wales, Western Australia, Southern Australia, New Queensland, New Victoria, Northern Territory and Tasmania
- 3 new ships, a Light Fighter, a Heavy Fighter and a Freighter
- 3 new factions, New Australian Police, New Australian Armed Forces and Namatjirans (pirates)
- Patrols
- Trade Lanes, Jump Gates and Jump Holes
- Wrecks AND loots

NOTE: The New Australian Police and Armed Forces will have Bretonian voices, and the Namatjirans will have Liberty Rogue voices.

At the minute I am a one-man team, so if you want to help, by all means tell me.

Many thanks to shsan, who without his exeptional Freelancer Explorer this would have taken me months to do, possibly years.

Updates as they come

By Australians, For Everyone Else....

People, bring shotguns, to UFO sightings. Kinda gives a new meaning to the term "You ain't from 'round here are yeh boy?"

Australians do NOT have American accents. Steve Irwin is American, it might surprise you.

Bull****. Steve Irwin was born in Queensland - Australia. His Dad taught him how to wrestle Crocs, in Queensland. You could'nt learn how to wrestle Crocs by practising on Aligators. Aligators are pussys compared to Crocodiles.

Dolphins, eskimos. Who cares, its all just a bunch of tree huggin hippie cr*p.

New Austrailia occupies SEVEN star systems? Why is that when all the other Houses have less?

Australia has 7 states/territories so it would make sense to make 7 systems or else ppl would argue for not including Tasmania or Victoria or whatever.
Or instead you could make it one GIANT system... but that would suck.

and anyway, who cares if it has more or less than other houses, it doesnt mean its better or worse or anything, just more systems to explore

Sat May 31, 2003 3:34 pm by 666heretic

America has 50 states

Japan has more than 50 provences and islands

Britian has more than 5 parts

Germany has about 20 or so "states"

see what i'm getting at? make it 4 or something dude, australia shouldnt be "uber-russia" sized

I'd love to help if you need any. I'm new to modding, but can create new systems, and have started playing with ship modelling (so not much help there, yet).

I'm also working on a bigger mod, and would love to include this when you finish.

Oh, and keep the 7 systems. If you have to loose anything, knock out NT and ACT (the territories), or they could be "border systems" instead.

P.S. I'm another Aussie here, and happy to work on NSW for you (thats my home state). Oh, and maybe we can add beer as a commodity?
