    When I was checking for the jump hole I had just finished the vanilla campaign and had just started the first Crossfire mission. I'll go back and look again after I finish the crossfire campaign.

    Hi guys! I'm playing the singleplayer campaign and I've just finished the main story. I'm trying to find the Oasis jump hole in the Texas system but I am struggling to find it. According to the map it should be slightly northwest of the Prudhoe wreck but I'm scouring that area and can't find it. Has the hole been moved or is it just tricky to find?

    Hi guys! I recently decided to play Freelancer again and I wanted to play the Crossfire mod. Last time I played must have been like 10 years ago! I'm amazed it's still going! What version of Freelancer do I need to play Crossfire? I have the unofficial 1.4 patch and the jflip community patch to play in widescreen but I'm guessing those won't work with Crossfire so I will need to reinstall.


    Sorry if this is an obvious question, I checked the FAQ but I couldn't find an answer.


    Nice to be back!

    I'm not allowed to run a private server for Tekagi's (same story as CF)


    Not heard of Nightstalkers before. What is that like?

    Hi there guys, quick question.


    In the mod DB there are two versions of Freeworlds:


    Freeworlds TC Mod 18.31
    FREEWORLDS: FREELANCER TC MOD 1.67


    Which one is the latest version of the Freeworlds mod?

    • Datastorm (tho it doesn't get the stacked systems right)
    • FLEX (better make a dupe mod and un-stack the systems) [size=1][OP you've made a lot of problem for cheaters with all your stacked systems and shit :D][/size]
    • ini exploring (Notepad FTW!!)
    • Any crappy FL system editor
    • Any crappy FL trade helper
    • Any crappy [insert some more FL tools here]
    • EXPLORING VIA FL [blink](duh)[/blink]


    need more? :D


    Not sure what Datastorm or Flex are... but I guess they are database programs or something.

    I'm sure that OP has his reasons for not letting people play with server versions, possibly because they could find where all the hidden stuff is or something.


    The server is actually for a LAN I am running for my Birthday party, so maybe the birthday spirit could be passed on :P Happy birthday OP ^_^;


    But I understand why people don't allow it. I've posted on Tekagi's forums and they don't allow private servers either. I guess i'll try and search around still.


    Other then that, I guess I could just host a normal freelancer server... but that is kinda boring.

    so i would recomment TT or Freeworlds for the beginning but maybe you like chaos


    I'm thinking of TT, but it seems like TT servers you need permission for, so I may be in the same boat as I am here ^__^;


    However, Freeworlds looks like it could be the way to go. I like a nice structured mod, with some fun ships to fly around in. Of course, Crossfire is perfect, but you guys won't let me have my own server :P

    Well, even if CF was lannable, i'd say the topic is suitable :P

    I have not heard of those two, are they solely just based on exploration, or are they good combat mods as well? We would ideally like something like Crossfire that offers a good mix of new places (Dom Kavash space for instance) and awesome ships and weapons.


    The ones I have been looking at but not yet tested:


    Tekagi's Treasure
    Freeworlds
    WTS World

    my friend made it but to play 1.0 isn`t funny i think :P


    In my opinion FL 1.0 is quite boring, I'd like a mod that spices the game up a bit that I can lan

    Restoring backups does not seem to work for me, but I guess I can just have multiple installs for different mods. Thanks.

    Hi there guys.


    I'm kind of new here. I use to play Crossfire a few years ago, but left to do other things, now i'm back, but I've forgotten most of the stuff about the mod ^_^;


    Anyway, I'm looking to host a freelancer LAN at a party down the road, and I want to find a reccomended mod to run. I would like to use Crossfire, but I understand that you guys don't allow private crossfire servers, and I'm cool with that (Although the mod is brilliant :P)


    I would say to everyone at the lan to just join the Crossfire server, but we're from Australia, and my average ping is around 300 >_> so playing on the actual Crossfire server is hard.


    Anyway, who can reccomend a good mod to play on a lan, and who can reccomend good admin tools to use? I remember from a while ago I had a program that allowed me to edit players on the server, so I could bump up money and change equipment and such, and seeing as the guys on the LAN will want to get right into the action, I would be just adding money so everyone could buy good ships right away.


    If anybody has suggestions, they would be great.
    Thanks for the great work on the mod, and I'll see you online in the future :)


    -Mikey.


    P.S.
    Is there any way to change initial Crossfire options (Such as intro music and costumes) without uninstalling Freelancer completely? That does bug me >_>;
