I was looking forward to join a smugglers clan, but when I saw the obligatory donation, I stayed away.
Not that I don't want to donate, but this obligation threw me away.

Hi guenni7.

Assuming you were talking about the "strongly encouraged" donation in IOC Member Program (link), it never was obligatory. I personally would have removed that line entirely because it always causes questions from new members. But this is clan leader's decision and, maybe, the line was kept for historic value. The clan info was written by our respected founder Centaurian and remains mostly unchanged since then.

Just like Tomigang, I have never heard of obligatory donations in CF.

Hope this comforts you a bit

one failure of this server is the multitude of GRs

Hello Anatta ,

I have been playing CF since 2010-11, and if any GR-tagged characters were online, there was mostly 1-2 at a time. With years even one GR became a rare sight, and today, due to clans' low activity, one can hardly ever meet serverpolice at all.

Here is the list of current GRs: Server Police - SWAT Portal

Only 3 of them are more or less active now, as far as I know.

I am saying all this just to inform you that the problem you are describing has long been solved or disappeared on its own.

Quote from Anatta

Can't I really commit suicide in a minefield or a planet because I immediately get banned or kicked?

You can, unless you do that intentionally to respawn at a far located base and have benefit from it (e.g. to trade faster or to escape from RP). Server rules are mostly just common sense. Also, nobody will kick or ban you unless you are continuously harming other players.

And believe me there are enough who want to give this server a chance but are hindered by some stupidities that cut off the pleasure of wasting time here

You could try to describe those stupidities here, and maybe a solution will be found.

Hello EzTrent and welcome!

Fix 1: start a new game It is totally worth replaying all missions with Crossfire mod.

Fix 2: Use pre-made savegames, for example the ones kindly uploaded by Iliyan here:

Fix 3: see the next post by OP-R8R.

Hope this helps!

Hello KILLerMONkeyZA,

make sure you didn't tick "OpenSP" in launcher options.

If you did, untick it and load the latest mission save (not autosave).

Thanks mates.

I am still here on SWAT and ready to help wherever I can.

Hello,

thank you very much for the effort and for making it public.

Coalition HQ in Vorkuta can be added to the list.

Also, Outpost Epsilon in Enyo should be dockable (same type as Fort Bush), and Sidewinder Station in Alaska.

Results of the Top Gun on May 29, 2020

There was notable disblanace between participating pilots' fighting skills, therefore we decided to make two Top Gun Tournaments in a sequence.

Tournament #1 between 5 gladiators:

|DP|DeadPool - event winner, 25 mill credits

(IOC)Fencer - 2nd prize winner, 15 mill credits

Lashan - participant, 5 mill credits

<C>H_Chronos - participant, 5 mill credits

Jack_Comet - participant, 5 mill credits

Tournament #2 between 3 gladiators:

<C>H_Chronos - event winner, 25 mill credits

Lashan - 2nd prize winner, 15 mill credits

Jack_Comet - participant, 5 mill credits

Also we had an honorable spectator watching both tournaments: Melty.

Thanks to all for coming and see you next time!

I see, good to know and glad you found the game!

Yes of course, you can post the link right here.

The default option during activation should be "Crossfire Standard" which you can hear in this video at 0:37: YouTube

In that case, I don't know where it comes from... Probably somebody else can help.

Hello CuzCuz and welcome here!

The contents of NEW_DEFEAT.wav file in game directory depends on your choice of menu music during mod activation. Do you remember which one was chosen?

Or, alternatively, can you find this music among .WAV files in Freelancer Mod Manager / mods / Crossfire folder?

Hello sokar2sokar and welcome here.

Try updating the game via launcher (answer "Yes" when starting single player) and see if graphics get back to normal afterwards.
