Out of Money, need advise

Wed Jun 04, 2003 9:33 am by Sweeper

Hmmm 5$ is the cost of Scrap metal in some places.
Here is what you CAN do if you want to go from poor to millionare in a few seconds (God if it was that easy in real life

)
Allright you need hacker 2.0 http://vgstrategies.about.com/gi/dynami ... oft.com%2F then fire up Freelancer load your save.
Select search 4 bytes address and enter your cash reserves as values.
Press search and let it complete.
After that go into the game, sell something at a base and not the new cash reserves.

Then ALT-TAB back out and rescan the new value.
Voila, you should now see 2 values having your money sum on them.
Edit them to your new wanted amount, yes you have to modefy both else there will be no effect.
Then lock them if you want and go back into the game and purchase back what you sold, you should now have enough money to buy the entire universe if you wish.
Just remember there is a limit on 4 byte addresses so don't go crazy.

That was the cheaty way, if you desperatly wants it.

You can start by shipping scrap metal in New York area, it is cheap around there that should give you cash to grow on.

Thanks for all the great advise. I have started the game over. I currently have a StarTracker and have over 100 kills. Just finshed up the Sean Ashcroft mission. I use different fighting tactics now and I BEAM the fighters right after killing them. Get some pretty good weapons that way to sell. Out of all the battles so far, had to replace shield batteries only once. New tactics work pretty good.

I am having trouble finding jump holes and wrecks. I cannot get out of Liberty yet using Jump Gates and as I search for wrecks, I get jumped time after time. I will kill off one group and not 2 minutes later, I will get jumped again. I don't get time to search and give up.

Does any know where I can find detailed location map of jump holes and wrecks? I have see the information about where the wrecks are at in a section of space but like I said, I get jumped constantly.

Thanks,

Tonckawa,
Download LancerThing 1.07 on this web site. It's great.
If you want to wreck salvage, first go over to Detroit Munitions and kill Zenos. Lots of Zenos.
Not on missions, just on your own. Soon you will see Rogues go neutral.

Frobozz,

LancerThing is perfect. I will be traveling to the Detroit Munitions soon. I'm in California right now trying to make some money (not much) there. Thanks a million.

If you are truly desperate for money and you have a lot of nanos (or batts, if you're nuts) then you can sell them for a good price. Recommend selling the nanos first, since the shields are what takes the brunt of any attack.

If you're stuck in Liberty and can't use the jump holes, there's a fast trade route from Ft.Bush to Pittsburgh that can make a lot of money fast. Get pharmaceuticals at Ft. Bush($111) and sell at Pittsburgh($144), then get Boron at Pitt.($120) and sell at Ft. Bush($144). You'll make $4560 per round trip in a Rhino.

Good point Glitch,

Launch with a half full load of Nanobots or you will be forced to leave many of these $200
jewels behind after combat. Very good money source in early levels.

I have totally changed my strategy for making money right now. I bought a Rhino and I found out that H-Fuel is good to transfer from Fort Bush to San Diego Border control and then visit Plant LA and buy Luxury Consumer Goods and transport those to Planet Manhatten.

I can make an extra $114 for each H-Fuel and $984 for each Luxury Consumer Goods.

I will be rich in no time and go back to a fighter before meeting Juni at Cal Minor.

Thanks Again,

I'll recommend the one thing i always did in EV. You start pirating from the pirates or unwanted

If you end up broke in Liberty. fly to Colorado and shoot asteroids. Many of them contain silver ore and you can fill a Rhino fairly quickly. Then it's off to California Minor for a quick sale. You can cash up fairly quickly. If you are getting shot at too much while mining, move close to a planet so you can run for the planetary defenses for help.
