LAN freelancer

Me and 2 friends are going to be playing Freelancer over Hamachi soon, after having scraped the dust off the old game. However, we face a problem.

We've completed Vanilla Freelancer, and, to be honest, we're bored of it.

We need a new, original MOD with a general aim to it (like the campaign - not just getting the best ship there is) that will work across the LAN and keep us up until mornings. Sadly, a glance through mods doesn't reveal if the campaign-type-mods are SP only. Most of the time, they don't mention it at all.

I feel this has already been asked about 100 times, but, any reccommendations?

Many thanks, but can people please link to the mods they reccommend? My lick with googling and finding mods here is a little low, at best. Thanks again!

Edit: Thanks for Evil Empire Revolution, but when I see ships with 120 bots and bats, a badly textured tree of a ship, followed shotly by horrid spelling and grammar, I can only wonder how good that mod can get.

any other reccommendations?

(On a side note, anyone else notice people can't delete their own messages here, despite the fact "delete message" clearly states that the author may delete his own messages?)

You can't have campaign in MP, you guys will have to use your mind and roleplaying to get that.
Since triggers don't work in LAN or online your sort of out of luck in that area.
You'll just have to randomly pick a mod and try it out and use your opinon to the one you like.

Mr. Disaster,

I know this probably doesn't help you much at the moment and I can relate
with your desire to get into something a little more interesting such as a modded version of Freelancer. I've lost count of how many times I've played SP...unmodded and modded. I've played on several different servers at some time or another.
There are quite a few mods out there and I could not honestly tell you which mod to go try out. I've tried many of those mods out there and they all have their good points.
However, for my own personal reasons..I've been working on a mod with that purpose in mind. Loosely campaign driven based on rumors, it should lead a team of players to a final (but repeatable) encounter.
The objective is to defeat a nomad mother ship before it can destroy the star in a system.


Want to know more?

Yes please. This is the kind of thing we need. Can't do triggers? Put something huge somewhere. Maybe a really difficult new system. I love it.
