I can't seem to find any npc's when I create my own server. What can I do?

Post Sat Jul 08, 2006 1:54 pm

The Ioncross datafiles for Frontierspace (or any other mods) should be copied into the:
Program Files\IONCROSS Freelancer Server Operator mk.V.1folder.
You will need to delete any other multiplayer server details and start flserver before running Ioncross. Then it should work fine.
(edit)
When you get the server up and running, feel free to post on the Frontierspace developers thread. All of the servers running the mod are listed in the thread topic.

do u have to make a new charachter for each server u go on?

Post Tue Aug 01, 2006 4:41 pm

Yep, each server keeps a list of players and Character names for THAT server only.. So theoretically, if you have a common name in mind there could be several servers with a character by that name already, none by the same player..

Yep,my name's so common on servers i struggle to use it lol

@Corsair_Starkiller:

Copy the folder called Multiplayer in My Documents\My Games\Freelancer\Accts from the old computer to the new one.

This transfers all multiplayer data from the old server to the new server and is transparent to anyone who plays on your server.

Have you got two firewalls running? If so, get rid of the windows one (turn it off) and trust your main one.

If it kind of "freezes" at the server listing, saying they're available but not listing any - then it's your firewall, as FL can't connect to the net.

Try re-permissioning your Freelancer.exe file once more, or alt-tabbing out an see if a warning about internet access is up.
