A couple of systems just dont fit

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!

A couple of systems just dont fit

I've searched everywhere and I ve found that Microsoft screwed up a bit (surprise, surprise)

A) Since when do mines move? Ive tried to head back to alaska to check it out see if anythings there but it seems the path you originally took is no longer there, seems to have closed up. ( ive tried cruising through with uber shield. didnt work to well.)

Nomad Lair. I can't find that system anymore. I believe it was Omicron Minor could never find that jumphole again.

C) Toledo. If my mind serves me right I believe that system had a jumphole to Omicron Minor as well. Im pretty sure that system was Omicron Major (havent played SP in awhile)

D) Alien Jump Gate. That was in O. Major. leading to one of 3 unknown systems. but now im hearing that inside Dyson's sphere its an entirely new system. so 4 unknown systems.

None of these show up on any star charts ive poored through the Freelancer maps and throuhg the in-game maps and still nothing. Im gonna go play again and search some more.

One more thing are there any jumpholes out of Unknown 1 and Unknown 2? I think their sun is broken becasue when i set a course for it, I dont burn upI bounce off it.

All those systems you are missing have been locked by the game since they were campaign only systems. So you cant go back to them. There are mods that will let you go back there, like Sams Jump System mod. But there isn't much to see.

You can goto two unknown systems in the normal SP or MP. One is in Omicron Alpha, another in Gamma.

The path through the mines is there, you just haven't searched hard enough. if memory serves, it's a little way above the plane of the system as a whole.

The reason you can't find a way into the Minors and Majors is that there isn't one. The game simply puts you there when it comes to the right story mission

And don't forget that the jumphole to the nomad lair collapsed!

Post Sat Apr 10, 2004 10:30 am

It doesn't actually collapse, you just fail the mission if you run out of time. If you mod a hole back to that system it's there working fine

Yeah, Datastorm shows them as connected but only to each other.

that path through the mines is there, look directly at the jumpgate head on, (place yourself a little lower than it) and fly straight forward, you will find it, gradually ease your ship up to the centre of the gate as you move through the mine feild and you will get through.

As for the jump gates, they are actually there, I know this beciase some of the clan members decided to go and raid omicron major one day, So I unlocked the jump gate via the server and they went through and from there they went through some of the alien gates aswell.

but lets just say MS messed it up, its better that way!!

wait, say wha??? theres a Jumpgate into Major *opens DataStorm* DataStorm reads that there are Jumpgates into Major and Minor and that one extra Beta, they just arent connected to the rest of Sirius. I just thought of an Idea that would have ade Freelancer a helluv alot cooler make it so there are no boundries except on te edge of sirius. So in Unkknown 2 from Omicron Alpha, you would be able to go there not just from the Jumphole but from anywhere. Your in Leeds. "ooh what a pretty pink cloud wonder whats in it? *Go To* Just add another engine. i dont know Jump Engine. or that jump thingy from SL, that I only know from the demo. But Jumpgates would still have use as you cant see every system. You can only see Unknown 2 because it friggin pink.

another cool idea is a jump hole at edge of Alaska. which brings up another question though. what in the hell happened to those mines in Rheinland? were those Nomad mines?

The mines in the Frankfurt System are still there. Take the jump hole from Hamburg and you will run into the minefield and a bunch of Unioner ships. The shipyard is gone after the SP campaign.
