    for me the background is black and the text is a very dark grey :S but the gamma of my screen has been a bit funny lately so its probably just my screen :(

    When i played 1.8 i found that most of the rapid fire weapons had a new effect, all the same effect an annoying purple glow. I presumed it was a bug but as its in 1.9 too i am guessing its a feature, so far have have had to only use slow firing weapons but i am finding it quite annoying. I am guessing that editing the weapons directly to remove this would cause the anti-cheat to kick in, if so is there any other way i would be able to change this, replace its texture with a transparent one perhaps?
    Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.

    it might be just my screen but unless i put my brightness right up i cant see any of the text :/ i don't suppose there is a non black theme we can use? the way it is now i don't think i will be able to use the site much without straining my eyes to the point of blindness :/

    Nowhere, the download has temporally been taken down due to a few bugs that need fixing and a new installer that is being made. I would expect that the download will be back up in a few days :)

    I know, the amount of times I have had to move funds from one char to another when nobody else is on :/ I have been know to text a friend at 2 in the morning for help :P I am glad that banking is filially implemented, besides as far as I am concerned its advantages far out way its disadvantages :)

    well i just tested and my copy of 1.8 still works fine so i doubt its anything to do with 1.9. You might want to make sure you have admin rights while playing, and try turning of any antivirus (this sometimes helps). Finally as a last resort you could try reinstalling the whole thing.


    (also you might want to turn off caps lock, seriously there is no need to shout at us :()

    Thanks for the reply, and you were right about the cargo it kinda makes sense that some containers are bigger than others :) i do have a small suggestion though, would it be possible to add how many cargo units are taken up by each commodity in there description?

    "All of the jump gates and jump holes that story wise I should not have access to yet (e.g. X system, Sol) are still accessible (I am sure I remember a post saying they would only be available at the correct points during the new plot, but I could be wrong) :S"


    the announcement is correct... but does only work if you remove all savegames and start a new singleplayer game

    Ah then i have a bug to report, i started a new game (i completely wiped my game, and cleaned my registry before installing 1.9) and i can still access everything :S. I am not very far into the game so i will start another one later after wiping my save games again just to make sure its not a fluke or anything :|


    Thanks :)

    Well my thoughts from around 3 hour's in SP are thus:

    • Absolutely Love the new textures :D
    • Love the new inertia :D
    • not sure about the new way cargo space in managed :huh:
    • All of the jump gates and jump holes that story wise I should not have access to yet (e.g. X system, Sol) are still accessible (I am sure I remember a post saying they would only be available at the correct points during the new plot, but I could be wrong) :S
    • All of the multilayer content is still present, e.g. massive space rules and clan signs (again I am sure I saw a post saying they would be removed in SP, but again I might have been dreaming) :S
    • Didn't like the new HUD at first, but love it now :D
    • Spent most of my time freelancing about and leaving Juni behind in new York so I cant say much about the plot, other then the prison ship at the beginning kept blowing up before I was even told about it :/ changing the games difficulty to 0.75 fixed it though :)

    Overall my feelings are thus: AWESOME!!! :thumbsup:

    no offence but does it matter at all? if anything it should be in a different thread, on a maths forum :P


    Hopefully back to topic now, i for one cant wait for 1.9 and as it would seem more tests are under way the release is closer then ever :D

    and we the loving community are a little curios :P
    I presume its more testing as the release gets closer i would expect more tests are required.
    (I would add that a little advance warning would be nice, however knowing that its release is near makes up for that :) besides i do have a ton of other stuff i need to be doing :()


    I hope all the testing and such goes well :)

    I have just cleaned up my registry and now the ID changer is showing my FLID except the last number is missing, and trying that id on another computer results in the game saying it is invalid and my current id does still now show my chars on other PC's. I think this is because i tried using an ID from over a year ago (and possibly from a different game, it was just scrawled on a piece of paper with no info), when i next install the game i am going to get it to generate a new ID and see if OP will be able to change them to that one. I will probably wait until I next wipe my system or 1.9 whichever comes first, that way i can start fresh if OP in unable to move the chars.
    Thanks for all your help and advice guys :)

    weird, i have no idea what it is but i do vaguely remember somebody posting something similar, they were also in the devron system (at least thats were it looks like you are) i can only guess that what should be a station around the planet has not loaded correctly or something. Still its definitely something you don't see every day :S

    Thanks for sugesting the ID Changer it seems to have found what is wrong. :) Freelancers "examine my account ID" and my regestry are both showing a completly different ID to the one the ID Changer finds :/ does crossfire store the ID in a different place or something?
