Repeat this until it's in your head - Freelancer is not an RPG... Freelancer is not an RPG... Freelancer is not an RPG.

oww...ok .. Its done..*not a RPG*.....but is there a way to make it so in a mod?

these is, but if it was, you cant see the persons face, and their mouths wouldnt move, you wouldnt see their face cuz its covered by a flight helmet, and it would only last so long, because the "Avatars" are actually just clips of various characters pretending to talk and nodding their heads in front of a camera. Its only made to last a few seconds, and avatars sound really stupid in the fact that everyone has the same character skin, so it will always be the blue-nosed, blonde, tight-assed pilot talking to you on vid no matter who you talk to. Earth and Beyond has a feature where when you have a pilot targeted it shows live camera feed from his cockpit (which i must admit is really cool) but freelancer doesnt. The NPCs, generic cargo ships, stations, docking rings and story characters all have their own avatars when you click HAIL but other players do not, end of story.
