New Freelancer Mod

A New very cool mod is out in beta version 0.16e, you can download it here http://www.progamer.nu/filer/freelancer ... _0.16e.rar

I have tried it and its VERY nice, hopefully they will add the server file soon.

here is a snip of what changes is done to FL

- 15.000 in start money
- 6 New Systems with lots of suprises
- Several new ships including Anubis Mk2, Armored Transport, Dromedary Mk2
- Buyable and flyable Cruisers, Battleships, Cargo Trains
- New equipment, like different thrusters
- A "War" is taking place between 2 systems with invading forces, Cruisers, Battleships. All of them can be shot down.
- Lots of new "surprises"

****ATTENTION!****
This the he CLient side Mod, you also need the Server side Mod to play on your own server or if you are setting up one!!!

mmm, cant wait till evening. But how do these big things dock? Cruisers and the like dont fit through docking rings. If those in the mod do, you dont have to reply , )

Post Tue Mar 18, 2003 2:26 pm

if the modder did his/her homework, he/she allows bigger transports to dock at moors instead of in stations or on planets.

Now we need multiple ship ownership, Genesis torpedos, and planet ownership/production...what a disappointing game, without too much more work it would have been very easy to throw in so much more

Post Tue Mar 18, 2003 6:32 pm

We are working on those things, also a Nuklear Torpedo

You know it would really help if you would of posted the server side of it too. Whats the point if I can't try it out on my server, or let the people on my server/gaming center play it either.

It sounds cool, but again, it sucks that I can't try it out.

Post Thu Mar 20, 2003 12:24 am

Sounds cool, but why put it out before there is a server side addon for the mod ??? Kinda doesnt make sense imo...

Post Thu Mar 20, 2003 6:53 am

"why put it out"

to garner attention for the mod, perhaps build up some excitement, get feedback, gain interest, make sure they are not working in vain for something no one would like probably. He's just letting us know and he's given us a way to test it or play around with it.

Sounds great, keep up the great work.

Post Thu Mar 20, 2003 10:55 am

No matter what his plan is, it doesnt make any sense releasing the client side mod before the server side one. He says himself that it requires the server side mod to work....

Anyways it does sound cool, alltho I'd like some more infomation or atleast a star map to show where those new systems are placed...

Post Thu Mar 20, 2003 3:17 pm

are there *any* differences between a server side and a client side mod?

up to know i though not..o

so why not just open up a server with this "client side" mod?

id love to fly a train... 80000 of cargo, man, THAT would rock.
20 millions to buy the ship and 100 millions to fill it up *LOL*

EDIT:
but i cant get it work.
i tried setting up my own server - crash.
i downloaded the no-story-mod and started a new SP game - crash

without the mod its still working, yet not with it.
i can buy a new ship (armored transpot), but i cannot launch

EDIT2:
ok, it works now.
i just copied the inis into the data folder, set up a server and connected to my own server on the very same machine. works like a charm

now guys, someone set up a server, i wanna fly this ONLINE!

I've got a server running the ExoMod 0.16e now. It's an AMD 1700+ w/512 DDR and cable connection. Seems to work fine for me. Give it a shot...

Let me know if you have any problems: [email protected]

BTW: Have you tried to dock with the mooring instead of the docking station?
