Hi all,
Somehow I have got the idea that there are 3 GMG wrecks in the Inner Core systems. I have found 2 (both without black boxes, but with cargo and guns). Someone put my mind to rest, please. Are there 2 or 3 ??

Many thanks.

Yes, Aleks, I know that, but I want to determine by how much for each grade of armour so I can optimise my performance

Hi all,
Can someone please pm me with the performance/manouverability reduction factors of the Armour Upgrades. Trying to fine tune my ship

Many thanks.

FD

Have a good one !!

Server crashed and not reappeared

Ok, do you have the Swat Icon on your desktop ?
If not, look in your Swat .Exe folder, look for the Crossfire icon, right click on it, create shortcut, cut and paste to desktop. Double click to start Crossfire.

FD

I guess, but may be wrong, that you mean the launcher icon that goes on the desktop. Mine is in C:/Program Files/Swat/Exe - in there is the Swat launcher icon, I created shortcut, then cut and pasted to desktop - all works.

I can understand 3D sound crashing my game to desktop, but not the whole server. I'll turn 3D off and then try the jump gates again.
Tested in and out - no problems. Thank you darkjedi

Congratulations to Retribution on the birth of a son (10lb 1oz) - hope all are doing well

Hi all,
Not sure if it was coincidence or not, but tonight going into Vega the server crashed as I exited jumpgate, thought nothing of it, but when the same happened exiting the jumpgate into X3043 I thought there might be a problem.

FD

Happy New Year to all. I Hope it is a better one than 2010 !!
FD

Thank you
I will try that.

Hi all,
Does anyone on here use this card, and if so, what is the best way to set it up for this mod ?
At the moment I am using "My preferences", but I am not sure if this will get the best out of the card/mod graphics. Should I use "Let the application decide" or "Use advanced 3D settings" ?
If it is the latter - a bit of guidance would be much appreciated
Thanks !

FD

Thanks, I'll try that.
Now I don't know if this is connected or not, but last night I was in Jormdar killing Savage. I killed three wings and as I killed the last ship all, or virtually all, NPC's disappeared. Went back to Weth and docked. Loaded a new char in New York - no NPC's. I flew the starter ship to Earth from New York encountering virtually no NPC's the whole journey.

Hi all,
There may a couple of problems/bugs/issues with Inner core systems.
Firstly - Myself and other players have problems with lag in these systems, even though we are not getting it in other systems.
Secondly- On Battlestation Mirtrrak, changing from room to room is extremely fragmented and voices can be heard as if the room change video(?) is mixed in with another. I haven't yet worked out exactly what is being said, but I'm sure Freeport 7 is mentioned.
As I intend to spend quite a time up in the Inner Core area, it would be fantastic if this could be resolved.

p.s. Merry Christmas to the amazing modding team !!

FD

Hoping you all enjoy a Yule that is right for you and yours, whatever that may mean

FD

Hi all,
Two questions :-
1)None of my chars, or Retributions, can F1 unless we are docked, yet we see other players being fined for F1 in combat. F1 can be a very useful tool, if used legally. Any ideas why ours does not work ?

2)I normally play with multiple accounts as this facilitates credit and equipment transfers between chars. I get error message E5 if I try to load Swat on another account when one is running. Again, any ideas ?

Regards,
FD

Hmm, well, if you cannot up Order rep, then I shall have to demand my 1.5 mill back
I've been conned, lol.
As I have only been on the server for about 3 days and just been joined by another clan member, I haven't posted an intro yet. I will do that in the next few days, but so far - we like the mod. Things are quite different to the other mods we have played on, which will take getting used to, but I want to kill Nomads and Dom Kavash for money !!!!

Hi all,
I bought Order Rep from Wheel of Sirius and went happily to Planet Toledo to do missions - no joy, not friendly enough, and no Order Rep showing in my rep list.
I guess the rep is for a different Order faction, but where are they hiding ?
TOD - (The Order of Dragons) are an Order based clan so would like to be able to dock and do mission for The Order.
Advice needed, please

Thanks,
FD
