Register a new accountUnfortunately I think IOC would have been needing a new SP in the near future anyway, since the original reason I got properly involved in S:R is that I can't connect to the server (I just time out before even being able to see my chars now). The ping also seems to now consistantly also be sitting around the 700+ mark whenever I check.
Put simply: CF is unplayable for me in MP, and I've done my best to solve the problem from my end.....
As I understand it, Ro9ue and ArchKaine have put that on a back-burner for the time being - Arch knows more about what's going on there than I do though.....
Hi all,
I know I haven't been around lately, and unfortunately that isn't likely to change in the near future. At the moment I simply have too poor a connection to the server (ie unable to stay connected for more than about 2 mins, or have 700+ ping no matter what I do....) 
There are supposed to be some line upgrades in my local area around the start of next year - which may change things - we shall see.................. [687]
Anyway, as a result I'm now working on the Sirius: Reborn mod, along with ArchKaine, (IOC)Cyb3r and Ro9ue. There's no release date for this mod (and nor will there be - we're not releasing it until we think it's ready) but you can vist the Sirius: Reborn forum here.
Hope to see some of you there [wink2]
DK have since vacated X-3043.... 
Hehe - thx guys - I will 
Btw - I have spoken to Doppleganger, and he's happy to run Twilight Madness whilst I'm away.
[size=+1][35]The Current Twilight Serial Killer: (Fallen)-Wie-Jetzt-GER [8][/size]
Second place: (Fallen)-FluffyPynSingr
Third place: (IOC)Eclipsya_S4
Overall Kill Count:
Rampage Bonuses:
(Fallen)-FluffyPynSingr --> x2
(Fallen)-Wie-Jetzt-GER --> x1
The match started small this week with only 4 showing initally - however, those present were keen to get fighting....
The ships list:
As an extra note: {UAC}Doppleganger will be taking over running the matches whilst I am away.
Notes:
- Suicides (ie flying into planet) will deduct 5 from your kill score each time.
- Self-Kills (ie killed by own munitions) will deduct 2 kills from your score each time.
- Anyone deliberately attacking the referee will lose 15 kills from their score (whether the referee is killed or not), and must wait 5 minutes before rejoining the match. If the same player attacks the referee again then they are disqualified for the remainder of that weeks' match.
- Accidental kills of the referee will result in a loss of 10 kills.

He came back after you left Ghost and he was not lagging at all
Interesting.....Thank you for that. I think this may be solved very quickly then if my suspicions are correct. We shall see...
Quote[size=1]Originally posted by =gk=supercars[/size]
btw Ghost I remember during the last Twilight Madness event, you asked me for my nick on the forums. You could tell me how to reduce my ping further. Please tell so that I can really pawn
Whoops! My bad....
Check ur PM's
Likewise I have noticed insane amounts of lag from Gigantula - especially at the Twilight Madness event, and just afterwards. I also spoke to him briefly about it, and he logged off with the intention of fixing it. It seems this hasn't worked, so I will talk to him again - most likely with the result of a temporary ban until the problem is sorted.
lance: My ping hasn't changed too much either m8, but I did go through a short period (close to a week all up) where I had sometimes had 500-650 ping, or else 900-1400 ping. I ended up solving it by raking my ISP over the coals, as well as giving my computer a complete defragment, anti-virus/spyware check, diskcheck etc.
I'm not sure which of them actually sorted it, but either way my ping was back to normal levels (for me) the next day...
Hope this helps m8.
P.S. Have you tried running a traceroute to the server?
Seems to me like this is a more sensible name since I'm not leaving for good....
Anyway, I will be away from Crossfire for about a month starting 26 Oct 06.
Take care, and happy hunting folks!
P.S. I will see what I can do about arranging someone else to run the Twilight Madness whilst I'm away....after all, it does seem to be a popular event!
Try deleting everything in the following directory:
\My Documents\My Games\Freelancer\
Then go to:
\My Documents\My Pictures\
and delete everything in there....
Once you've done that do a clean installed of a non-hacked version of Freelancer (ie use the original disk). Then activate the mod as usual (thru FLMM 1.31).
There is nothing wrong with the mod in singleplayer. The only things that cause crashes are (as OP has already said) savegames and screenshots. Oh - and if any savegames are present (not just CF ones) then that is why you have been having the crashes.

@Sands of Time why would I ban anyone for attacking you in X?it isnt a non -pvp zone and hasnt been for a very long time.
My guess would be that he is asking because they were reloading.
I think we should just add them to the F1 hall of shame - since the end result is the same (attempting to evade combat/not play fair), and that would get them hunted by people. The link to that thread is below:
[size=+1][35]The Current Twilight Serial Killer: {UAC}Dopp(Fleet_Cmdr.) [25][/size]
Second place went to: {LP}LuBu{X}
Third this week was: (Fallen)_FluffyPynSingr
Overall Kill Count:
Rampage Bonuses:
{LP}LuBu{X} --> x2
{UAC}Dopp(Fleet_Cmdr.) --> x2
It looks like things are on the up for those of the more ammo-happy variety - perhaps it's all the extra practice? 
The ships list:
Notes:

[size=+1][35]The Current Twilight Serial Killer: Destroyer-A [96][/size]
Coming in second: {UAC}Dopp(Fleet_Cmdr.)
And third was: BG_yoda[F]
Overall Kill Count:
Rampage Bonuses: Destroyer-A --> x3
It seems things weren't going well this week for our fighters, and it looks like munitions are becoming more and more of a liability in PvP matches....
I wonder if there's going to be the massive numbers of self-kills again next week?
Also - Thanks again to UAC Doppleganger for helping sponsor the event - without which the current prizes would not be possible
The ships list:
Good to see we had a few more people at this weeks' event - but this is definitely one of those events where the more people get involved, the more fun it is for everyone. Remember - there's no restrictions on weapons or ships that may be used for this event [8]
Notes:
- Suicides (ie flying into planet) will deduct 5 from your kill score each time.
- Self-Kills (ie killed by own munitions) will deduct 2 kills from your score each time.
- Anyone deliberately attacking the referee will lose 15 kills from their score (whether the referee is killed or not), and must wait 5 minutes before rejoining the match. If the same player attacks the referee again then they are disqualified for the remainder of that weeks' match.

Sorry folks - due to unexpected RL circumstances I was not able to run the event at its usual time/date - therefore I will delay it 24 hrs.
See you all there tomorrow (in theory :P)
F1 fining also occurs if you're taking radiation damage......
Disturbed - Fear
We already have such a thread actually (and several others like it :P)
Sorry folks - no event this week, as my ping to the server is about 900-1200 atm 
Currently working through possible solutions at the moment, but I have the feeling my ISP is the cause..... [3]
