If the cargo that comes out was, for example, silver in a silver mining field, it is already integrated in-game.

If it is something you never saw appear from there, like guns, then it's a cheat and I think no one will really help you on this one.

It's not a cheat!
(It's a debris field.)

All you need do, is shoot at the scrap (If it's targetable), and you'll get the cargo, too.
Usually only works with the small stuff that flies by.
And it won't show up everytime.

If you're making your own mod, the asteroid field's ini file needs a section like:
[LootableZone
asteroid_loot_container = lootcrate_ast_loot_metal
asteroid_loot_commodity = commodity_scrap_metal
dynamic_loot_container = lootcrate_ast_loot_metal
dynamic_loot_commodity = commodity_scrap_metal
asteroid_loot_count = 0, 0
dynamic_loot_count = 1, 1
asteroid_loot_difficulty = 40
dynamic_loot_difficulty = 4

The last 4 lines determine how much, and how often you'll get the "commodity_scrap_metal."
Any commodity can be placed there, if you're making your own mod.
BTW-The "lootcrate_ast_loot_metal" determines what it looks like after it's been shot free.

Edit:
Almost forgot...
In the system's ini file, the zone MUST have an entry:
pop_type = lootable_field
(If not, you can't loot it.)

Watch your 6!

Thanx whitedog

Oh do i have to install SDK v1.3 into the game folder or can it run alone on the hard drive to make changes to ini files?

the original location it called for was microsoftgames\freelancer\data

do i leave it there or change it???
