Just thot I'd mention that the Galaxy model is a bit small in relation to the Orion and Centurion...The Galaxy was definitely larger than both as a freighter

Post Tue May 25, 2004 9:33 pm

I agree, and I've asked BoH_Havoc to enlarge it.

Watch your 6!

tja, how is BoH_Havoc doing these days? I need to get some screencaps from him.

Post Wed May 26, 2004 12:04 am

Havoc.. the FTP site is run by tolwyn.. send him or bob or someone an email for the login information.

Which of these models gets the wallpapering? The Galaxy's textures are already on tolwyn's FTP, but I am not sure how they will look. I need screencaps of the model in-game to see what needs to be done.

Also, requesting in-game screencaps of New Const, Perry, Paradigm, and whatnot.

I am ready to resume texturing as soon as I get the orders what to do

I seem to be having problems with this MOD.

I only downloaded it from this site yesterday so I have the right version.

I only play the game in Open SP using the OpenSp V 1.1.

Everything is fine except for the Battleship Missouri to Texas Trade lane. Every time I go to enter the trade lane at the point when the ship is about to enter I get CTD. This does not happen if I enter the trade lane using the second gate just the first gate next to Battleship Missouri. This happens regardless of which ship I use.

Also when I try to enter the New York to Texas jump gate I get the same CTD as above this also happens with all ships.

Like I said I only had the Privateer: The Reckoning Mod V2.5 and Open SP V1.1 running at the time.

I have deleted my Freelancer game directory and all saved games and re-installed the game with a fresh install of the SDK 1.3 files as well and I still get the same problem with the Battleship Missouri to Texas trade lane and the New York to Texas jump gate.

Thanx in advance.

well....all privateer 2 ships need textures, as far as i know.
what do u mean with in-game screencaps ? all i got are the snaps of the original priv2 ships. If you want pics of the ships flying in fl, i can give u some, but i don't know why you could need them, because they have no textures atm...well maybe i'm just totally misunderstanding you

A somewhat known bugg suposedly it has something to do with ships. Oh btw Privateer: The Reckoning Mod V2.5 is open ended so Open SP V1.1 is not needed with this mod.

Running OpenSP, and v2.5 together, might be causing that problem.


Watch your 6!

Post Wed May 26, 2004 7:37 pm

Thanx guys for the replys. This leads me then to ask the question that if Open SP V1.1 causes the problem how do I play without having to go and do the story line yet again. You see I play most MODS which come out and use Open SP V1.1 so I don`t have to do the story line each time.

You see I would prefer to sit here and explore rather then sit here and have to waste 2 to 3 hours with ever MOD doing the story line.

Hope someone has an answer for me.

As said many times before-- you dont need the open SP mod to play this beta release. You can start right away without talking to juni.

Post Thu May 27, 2004 2:18 am

Right I started the MOD this time without the OpenSP V1.1 running and set out from Manhatten without doing a single thing to the start ship or without buying anything and headed for the Battleship Missouri to Texas trade lane.

This time I entered the trade lane with no problems what so ever and traveled the full length of the trade lane without a problem.

I then when to dock with the Texas jump gate of which my ship entered the gate got to point were it comes up with the Loading box as it is loading the next system and I got the CTD again I have tryed this several times wiyh the same result each time.

This is really starting to annoy me as I really want to play and explore this MOD to the full but can`t as I cannot get out of the New York system to the Texas system.

I have also tryed all the other jump gates from the New York system (except the one to Alaska) and there is no problem with them its just the Texas one.

BoH_Havoc, are all the privateer 2 ships going into this mod? I thought it was a pure wing commander universe mod.. correct me if I am wrong. And the screencaps I was requesting are for those models that are "finished" in case I need to make further texture adjustments.. namely the Galaxy.

Also Airport.. re-install freelancer.. wipe it completely off your hard disk and re install.. then only load the privateer mod. I think that should fix your problems. You probably understand why. It might be due to a number of reasons--corrupt ini files, leftovers from other mods, and what not. You do not need to run that Open SP mod at all! I imagine doing that might cause un-wanted results!

Thanx lvxoccvlta for your reply, the bad news is that already tryed your suggestion and I still get the CTD when entering the Texas jump gate from the New York side.

I have taken the jump hole in the Badlands to Texas with no problems and returned via the jump gate into New York. It just seem like I can`t go to Texas via the jump gate.

Also one last thing I started the game a fresh without OpenSP running and did`nt talk to Juni in bar but when I access the jobs board it say I already have a mission, but when I check the Nav map nothing shows up. So I then talked to Juni and did the first mission and I now have access to the jobs on the jod board, but Juni keeps asking me to return to Manhatten and after every job I take the nav map set Manhatten as a way point.

So how do I start a fresh game without having to do the first mission to get access to the jobs board and not have Juni keep asking me to return to Manhatten. Also my profile say that to progress to the next level I need to do the next mission, but I don`t want to do the story line to progress.
