WHOOOAAAA! Blood Hunter.....Riddicks head will hardly fit into his helmet now....... Any more compliments and it will NEVER fit.

On a more serious note, I had absolutly no problem with the new installer of OP's. It put everything just where I needed it and then worked fine. Guess I'm lucky?

Read about it just before it came out in a gaming magazine and fell for it. Bought it when it first came out....then only got 2/3 through the story before I got stuck. Tried Multiplayer but there wasn't much of an interest then an I had no clue what to do (then). Layed the game aside for aboout a year, then took it back up. Started the SP from scratch again and still could not get through it. Layed it aside for another year. Finally I took it up again and finally finished the stupid (I really did like it) story and then went on to look at some mods. I didn't try any except for Open Sigle Player. Then I found CF and thought I'd give it a try. And so here I am.

If you like challeng so well why not go take on the DK fleet single handed a few times....that might give you some excitment.

Someone said to connect using all the above but choose lan server....and supposidly it connected fastwer....have not tried this though so can't say.

Seems to be an appropriate thread so let me say that this latest installer of yours OP is great. It makes life so much easier. Thanks to you and all who contributed to it.

Probably has no barring on your situation but the last time I uninstalled/reinstalled I had this problem and had to reinstall all over again. Hope you have better luck.

Whoever is succeful with their reinstall and are NOT haveing problems should post here also so that all can maybe campare notes. Just an idea....I'm still at work so that wont be me for awhile...but I'll post as soon as I know myself.

Make sure you use BULK shipping Op.....less expensive with that many disks..... :]

To put an image on here you have to have an account with a free file upload service like PUTFILe.com and then upload your picture to it. Then put a link to it in your posts.

As for the error....can't say...don't know.

No....they're washing their undies at the same time we trying to Wup them.....causes a lot of Lag...doing both at once....lol

@ Fitter55 ....Your thoughts and ideas are well noted....thank YOU for contributing.....

I agree. Let's get those pesky vermon.

Maybe it can be made available via password, in turns, to prevent everyone from dl'ing at once. Since money is an issue, perhaps clans could go first, then other players. (Clans pay rent on a monthly basis and could kick in an extra month's rent per clan or maybe an extra month's rent for each five members). That would help offset the bandwidth usage.

Then once the clans have all downloaded the goods, the rest could go, based on character level; Characters at lvl 60 and above one week, then 50, then 40, and so on.
This could spread out the downloading over a few weeks and get us into next month, which might help preserve Op's account so that the forum doesn't shut down.

I doubt it would work because everybody wants to get at the goodies NOW, but if neither LR nor OP can afford to make it freely available to the entire CF community at once, what are the options?

Display More

Or OP could just turn out a lot of little elfs to burn upteen number of Cd disks to mail to ALL players that have the proper coins to pay for the publication of same.

In other words.......There is no clear solution at the moment......enjoy V1.61.

J, you have to get out of bed before you even qualitfy as slow......lol

flyin_si stated "one small point if it ok to f1 in to the game in order to set an ambush

then surley it should be ok to f1 out and swap chars to counter "

This is kind of a tuff one Si. But it has to do a lot with integrity of the train driver. And for that matter the Pirate too. We all know that we can have up to 5 characters in the game. and we know that most all of use have or do use characters spread out over the systems.

As you stated, if it's ok for a Pirate to switch out and jump from say NY to Sol to tax someone then why not F1 and leave sol back to NY. I honestly, thought when I started writing this message that I could answer that. But I don't think I can. Since we all do it whether it's on a simple routine level or under pressure of an attack, then then there isn't much difference.

It doesn't seem quite fair to the Pirate to F1 out to avoid tax, but may not be much different to F1 out to seek revenge or retribution. I do agree that the preverbial shot over the bow should be one shot to the hull. Just don't forget to take your finger off the fire button ok.

I think I'll have to say for me and me alone, If I can't outrun, hide or fight, I'll pay up if I'm in my train. But as carbine, I think said, If I'm in my fighter, then it's PvP time (Player V Pirate). But just remember I'm only talking for myself, not others.

Perhaps it should not be titled, "Revenge", but rather a personal contract. And an explination should also follow as to why the person is being singled out. I.e. For shooting so in so....or for taxing so in so or what ever. This way the action willnot be misunderstood and turninto a blood fuid. I may be odd man out here but if i do something to someone else then I get waxed WITH and explination, I'll probably let it go. but one without, well then that opens a different can of worms.

You are doing what your suppose to. There is some mixed ideas as to whether you should have a Pirate licence mounted......your Clan ARE pirates......this is not an unknown fact if someone reads the FORUMS. If you observe the newbie rules then everyone else should be fair game. Then we all have the choice.....heel to if a round is fired across our bow, or fight and see who wins....or try to out run the Pirate....fat chance of that....Oh yea...trains hire or get and escort.....all part of role playing.....am I right. Not F1 out like a pansey, no ofences to any pansies out there.

Not to pat myself on the back, but we had lag so bad one night that as this one fellow tried to tax me...I could have easily escaped. But what the heck....it's part of role play and we all get cought up with the LAG monster. I think he even gave me a discount....Which I appreciated.

I'm sorry...but who's arguing? Looks to me like a heavy discussion....and nothing more...

@OP...artistic licenses like anything else allows a person to add what ever they want....even if it doesn't make sense. Sci Fi is more art, like your mod, than fact. Work, Bils, Debt, personal problems are all part of reality. We're not really playing FL/CF for the reality sake but the emersion and the chance to get away somewhere we can't in REAL life. So My idea was just an idea...but not a bad one if I do say so......

And for any who miss my point i was refering to the idea of death sound like being added to the death of the DK.
