    Hello All,


    I have posted in the support forum instructions on how to test


    the file you have downloaded, to see if it is corrupt.


    Anyone having problems, may


    want to have a look at it.


    See you out there,

    I was in Freeport7


    yesterday, just driving through, Id been trading all day, so needed some sport.




    These 2 LP guys asked over the comms if I was in trouble, needed help. I said thank


    you but no. We all went on our merry ways.


    Just wanted to say, not all pirates are


    bad all the time!


    And to the 2 LP guys, thanks for the offer, it was


    appreciated.

    OP,


    Can you host the PAR2 files, or do we effectivly download the mods from the


    LR site.


    If you dont host the files yourself, then posting the MD5 hash in the


    download area (with the link to the file) will enable people to check if they have a corrupt


    downlaod.


    They will just have to keep downloading it until they have an un-corrupted


    version.


    Ill wait till I know.


    Evilcaster, I have sent a PAR2 file to the


    email address you PM'd me. I have also included the link for the program. Any problems,


    just PM me or send an email.

    I think everyone has had problems downloading the mod.




    It is impossible to know if the file you have downloaded is complete and


    uncorrupted. I have seen posts where people have downloaded the mod 6 times, and are still


    not sure if they have the correct version.


    The only test at the moment is - does the


    mod work. For my mind not an elegant solution.


    I have started to do some work on an


    alternative method of checking if the file you have is complete and uncorrupted.


    My


    initial idea is to use an MD5 hash posted in the download area, so people can quickly check


    if the file is OK. If there is a problem then I would suggest using PAR2 files to correct


    this.


    If no one has a better idea, or if no one objects, I can start work on the


    draft user guide, including screen shots, and links to the programs. I will post it to the


    support section for suggestions/improvements.


    Evilcaster Have you ever come across


    PAR2 files before. If you would like I can send you a PAR2 file, and a link to the software


    download page. Just PM me your email address.


    Merry Xmas ALL!

    Hello ChiefRedCloud,


    Sorry I


    did not reply to your question earlier, your post slipped under my radrar.


    To answer


    your question about my nationalilty, I will give you a hint, look to the left of this text.


    :]


    Answers on a postcard to the usual address.....


    Have a good Xmas Chief,


    hope to see you soon.

    Hey ChiefRedCloud,


    I'm not a brand of Biscuits


    :)


    Sounds like you got the idea, and the sequence.


    You might want to stay


    away from those Nomards 'till your guns getter bigger.


    See you out


    there....


    JtaK

    Dear ChiefRedCloud,


    Good news, you will not have


    to start again, your chars should work fine with the mod, both in SP and MP.


    See you


    out there,


    JtaK

    Dear Gunny,


    I have done exactly as you suggested:


    I have un installed 1.54


    within flmm
    I have confirmed that not old files are in my flmm folder
    I have removed


    all saved games from my \Documents\My Games\Freelancer\Accts\Singleplayer folder
    I


    have downloaded ne copies of 1.53 and the 1.54 upgrade
    I have installed same.


    It


    might be helpful if people did a quick post saying "I have a clean install". So that we can


    see progress.


    I will be on the IRC channel - #SWAT-portal of se.quakenet.org, if


    anyone needs help.


    If you need help with IRC, post a quick note, and I will post


    instructions.


    If you need help with posting, you should be in bed by now


    :)

    Could not agree more Centaurian.


    Made it


    difficult to know if the jump hole you entered, led to a minefield, or you'd been


    "lagged".


    I rushed my first attempt at mapping, which made it useless. With my second


    map, I zoomed in to each cluster of jump holes and mapped position, ignoring color.




    I checked every jump hole in the system. Long winded perhaps, but helped when lag


    killed me.


    I could now get in and out, in about 10 minutes.


    My only comfort


    while spending nearly 4 hours in there, was a mental image of OP's frustration at designing


    and de-bugging it.


    Cruelty comes so easy to us all.

    Dear ChiefRedCloud,


    If you are having problems using


    your software, eg FL and Acrobat, it could be one of 2 problems.


    Either your user


    profile is damaged (common) or


    Your Registry is. (Also common).


    Set up a new


    user on your system, and try logging in as it, if your able to use Acrobat and FL -


    solution.


    If not, then your registry is probably the problem, in which case you may


    have to think about reinstalling your Operating System.


    If your system was working


    until recently, try to do a system restore from a recent stable date. Might


    work.


    Hope this helps!
