    Crossfire has a widescreen feature built in, but it is not currently working. Someday the launcher will download an update that will make it work for you.

    (If you want to hurry things along, then unzip the attached file and put the jflp.dll in your EXE folder (\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Freelancer\EXE). Overwrite the existing file. When you restart Crossfire, you should be able to choose a widescreen resolution.)

    EDIT: I tested this file before I posted, and I thought that it worked. After further testing, I see that the launcher overwrites the fixed jflp.dll.


    So, unfortunately, it means that you will probably have to wait for the official update.

    Regarding being booted as soon as you connect to the server, a common reason for that is a bad saved game file. You said that you just installed Freelancer, but has Freelancer ever been installed before?. If it has, then you may have saved game files. Delete (or rename) the Freelancer folder under My Documents\My Games then try again.


    If you still have problems, then give us a more complete explanation of the steps you have taken and exactly how and when you get booted.

  • I have a widescreen laptop, but what i did to ''fill the screen'' was to adjust the resolution myself. There`s a tutorial around here on the forums: http://www.swat-portal.com/php/forum/index.php?page=Thread&postID=163270&highlight=Widescreen#post163270']FL on widescreen

    Assumption is the mother of all fuckups.
