  • exploration missions in other high-reward systems. That's a cool idea. I wonder if the mechanics of the online game allow this.

  • Yea, the engine is a very limiting factor and also this game needs some kind of "money sink" so people are needed to spend money. At the moment most players sit on 2 billion or more credits.


    - Maybe, with the game engine in mind, its possible to place special loot containers or wrecks at certain places to makes these more interesting to visit.

    - I dont know if its possible to have "changing" loots on wrecks, like the commodity items

    - create collectables (archivments) and each item is a piece of ammo (and make ammo not loosable on death)

    - when e. g. 10 "collectables" are found on one char, the server could "exchange" the items to a different one (money would be needed to, like 100 mio or something) (I think thats how the cloak device works).

    Only dead fish swim with the stream.
    Don't discuss with idiots. They only drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience there.

  • Hello,


    I started Freelancer Crossfire 5 minutes ago. As usual, the update followed (otherwise 42 now 150 files). When I try to start the game, I am now shown a field for a server setup that I cannot click away without being logged out of the login.


    The problem is that I FL -

    I have never played Crossfire using the multiplayer feature and have no intention of doing so.

  • Can you provide a screenshot, because I don't really know what field you mean.

    Probably you clicked on multi-player on the launcher.

  • Huor identified why there is a problem with the launcher switching from SP to MP.

    Based on that I just released a small patch to fix this issue.

  • I have just released a new version of the OpenGL renderer.

    Most of the issues of the old version have been fixed. A bunch of minor issues remain, but well, nothing critical. Performance should be better now and it will look better than the previous version.

    Its a major improvement over the last version. Some stuff in the DX version still looks a bit better but with the new version there at least is the possiblity to convert that stuff (once I have the time for that).


    With that update I also adjusted a wide set off lights to make them look closer to their dx counterparts.


    While the new launcher is being tested I did a few changes to the web components to fix some style mismatches. However, these changes will not be visible instantly since the content most likely is cached and will take some time to update.

  • Maybe my post doesn't belong here, but I have to emphasize that after the update, I can't start the game, neither SP nor MP. Throws an error about the shader.

  • Yesterday played in NO Shader and later in OpenGL....today switched to NO Shader again...cos NPC hunt in OpenGL is a bit heavy for my PC.

    Later decided to check those improvements in OpenGL and something went wrong....enter server , chose char , char docked at base but when launch it kicks me off.

    Two chars checked...result all the same.

    Switched back to NO Shader...game show the ship in space for a 1...2 seconds and kicks me off again....

    Any help appreciated...


    Checked another account and it worked with no problems...now the previous says its banned...

    Edited once, last by Tomigang: Checked another account ().

  • unbanned and probably unrelated to the update
