Alternative to Jump Holes/Gates

If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!

Alternative to Jump Holes/Gates

Hey All,
Was wondering if it's possible to actually "fly between systems" instead of using jump holes and jump gates...

Would it be possible to fly to a system that has no jump holes then?

I wonder, becuase the CD has 53 systems... I'm not a modder, but I'm just wondering if there's more easter egg systems out there.

Thanks!

On this site.. "Latest Q&A" - "Session 1"

"TLR: Is it possible to travel between systems without a jumphole or jumpgate?
Jörg: It's not possible. Don't even try. "

Hope this helps.

Personally I don't know first hand because I've never tried it myself. I've seen screen snapshots of people flying out beyond the map. Frankly I think the topic is somewhat moot. Why would you spend hours and hours in game time to try this when you can simply go through a jump gate in minutes?

Okay I'll settle the whole "flying to another system" thing once and for all.

When you enter a system, it's loaded like any other game level, and gates/holes transport you between these levels. As far as I can tell, each level is completely independant from each other, therefore flying directly to another system is IMPOSSIBLE.

I wouldn't say I'm disappointed with Freelancer, but there are so many things I was hoping to see/experience, which includes seamless system-to-system travel.

i put in the 3000 cruise mod and cruised to the eage and all it did is was(on the map, the ship keep on going in cruise) turn to a red arrow and stop moving
