God, just had a nostalgia bomb, Freelancer was a great game and still holds a very powerful formula. If they would just remake the game but with this gen technology and somewhat improved multiplayer they'd have a real hit on their hands.


You make Sabin sad with your wistful thinking of a game that will never come to be Sad

God... I'd buy an updated Freelancer IN AN INSTANT! I wouldn't care if Activision were publishing it and charging $80, I'd STILL buy it. Freelancer with current gen technology would be.... Mmmmmmm.

Dude, I think I just filled the cup.

Ahh, Freelancer... Black Prophecy reminded me how much I love space sims and I decided to play through Freelancer again. I don't remember anything about it, not even if I finished it, so it's time to relive this glorious game. It's amazing how freaking good this game still is. The combat system so fluid, intuitive, fun and engaging...
Anyway, I downloaded two mods for it too: Crossfire (1.5GB size, WOW!) and Discovery, gonna have some fun with them after I finish main story.
BTW, anyone knows how to play it on widescreen (1440x900, to be exact)?

Hey guys, bumpy bump! It's time for my yearly replay ^_^ Which mod should I go for? Crossfire or Discovery? Also are there any recommendations for mods that you can play alongside the main story? CF/Dis radically alter the story, I want a full-on mod that lets me play the original story -- but with a fuckton of enhancements Very Happy

Thanks!

~edit~

Settled on Crossfire, apparently the new plot doesn't take place until after you finish the original story. Sweet! I do miss TNG though, I busted my ass to be able to afford the NCC 74656 capital ship Sad

Hi guys.

I'm about to replay this great game and I'm wondering should I use unofficial patches? I don't remember having any problems playing with official 1.1 patch.

Also, which patch should I use :

The next Crossfire release is coming out soon and it looks like this is the big one, the main total conversion that they've been working on for 2 years! Supposedly development finishes this month and then the release is happening.. and it sounds like it's going to be incredible! It's been 2 years since my last replay.. time for a new one Very Happy

~Crossfire 2.0, also known as "Freelancer 2: Crossfire" Information~

Quote:

The Crossfire Mod is by far the biggest and most complex Freelancer modification available. For many years this mod is known for highest quality and innovative ideas which we have introduced to the Freelancer modding scene.
With Crossfire we have build and extended an universe based on the original Freelancer game and its story. Realism and a logical development of the quest based storyline and the game environment such as the systems and the technological development is most important on this mod. Crossfire is not a static mod like most others, it is a dynamic developing environment with dynamic economy, dynamic universe, destructable solars and download content (DLC) which introduces new quests, new ships, new systems and new equipment.

Most important in this mod is the atmosphere.
High quality graphics, high quality music tracks, more than 150 very detailed systems, new voice samples, stunning effects, many challenging quests, ten thousands of small side stories and rumours, fantastic gameplay and hundreds of cool ships. That is the Crossfire mod.

Sorry for not replying before, I honestly didn't see it Sad I don't have any recommendations on patches either since I usually tend to stick to the TC mods which have their own updates/changes.

Well was going to try the older version of the mod, but with a clean install of the game, FLMM 1.3 and ofc having full rights i get this error when trying to activate:

Quote:
Error: problem activating 'Crossfire Mod 1.9 Client Edition'
Error: SHCopyFile failed ('C:\Program Files (x86)\Freelancer Mod Manager\mods\Crossfire1.9\DATA\SOLAR\STARSPHERE\sp1.cmp' to 'C:\Games\Freelancer\DATA\SOLAR\STARSPHERE\sp1.cmp')


Tried google a bit, but the only things that came out of that where surrounding folder permissions and admin rights etc.. but i have full rights everywhere..

I used to have the game files on an old external HD, and lost it. The game itself was small if I remember correctly, something like 700MB, no? Laughing

Going to have to try and find it.
