    Despite all rumours... such a randomize does not exist


    Hi




    randomizer / Drop chance ?


    Whats changed ? the Ancients used to drop a pair on guns for each ship killed, now you can kill 10 and get nothing apart from an expensive repair bill, an ass whopping and a short stay in Hospital in Omega 41 while your ships being repaired !


    All the wrecks are empty. Something must have been changed ?


    It used to be fun to get Alien tec now it's impossible and not worth the time and effort.


    I really really really love this mod and it hurts me to say these things, and I really appreciate all OP's hard work, time, effort and expense running the server, but it's not really any fun anymore except for the Great events watching i.e. Picard evade 15 hunters in the smuggler hunt and PVP in the Arena. IMHO


    I think this should be the number 1 priority to be fixed before working on 1.9 (that is unless it will be fixed in 1.9 )


    All the Noobs ask where did you get those guns / missiles and how can we get them, and I have to say you need a time machine to go back a few months to when the NCP's and wrecks dropped stuff.


    There was a time when I had lots of these guns and would give a noob a pair and tell them / sometimes take them (if I had time) to where they could get the guns for themselves. This is what happen to me when I was 1st taken to the Inner Core and i've been hooked on this MOD ever since.




    See you in Space.

    HI All


    I don't know if this is possible, or if it would be to time consuming for OP to do ?


    But I would like to see the randomizer for Wrecks and NCP Gun drops turned off until it's fixed, as there's no point or fun going all the way to wrecks to find them empty or killing NCP's that don't drop anything at the moment.
    Even if the price for the guns was dropped a bit it's still fun going on expeditions collecting them and a good way to make some credits. (IMHO)


    See you in Space

  • Another Video by GALACTUS

    Quote from Bond

    In that game we can organize some epic formation,made of Battle ships, destroyers and good looking fighters!This will represent the CF mod, in the first place, as well as our community and our unity, people likes to see things like that. :) Also would be cool to have some wets around, so u can put the year of registration above or under their names in this movie!Imagine this 8o


    Greets from
    Bond, Mellon, Lonely ranger...etc :thumbup:



    Hi Great video i Love the screen changes etc.



    I agree we should get a load of ships (battle ships gunboats and fighters) all in one place, not fighting just flying slowly together and then do a fly past and film it.


    Then you could work your magic and edit it (in HD if possible) and post it.



    I'm sure the clans will help out with this, (I will myself) we could even do it at the next Inner Core event on the 10 of October ?



    Thanks for the video...

  • CROSSFIRE VACATION VIDEO

    Great work Mate.
    Should attract some new players if enough people see it ?
    I agree it would be better in HD if possible to show off the details in the ships, systems and the effects, and then you can watch it in full screen.
    But great work all the same mate, well done.

  • Operation Hephaestus

    Hi
    This is Captian Crookey, Just letting you know you have my full support for this important mission.


    My VHF is at your service Sirs.


    Captian Crookey out .......




    (ooc It's about time we had another raid in the I/C, There always great events. I recommend them to everybody, especially Noobs who wouldn't last a second in there by themselves. This is by far the best way to visit the Inner Core and map the systems i.e in numbers and with heavily armed Clans by your side LOL)

  • cfwd.exe error

    Hi
    This happens to me after a server crash and I re-start FL. It's nothing to do with the server. When I close FL down the cfwd.exe stays open and stops me from re-starting FL.
    All you need to do is
    "Ctrl - Alt & delete"
    and start "Task manager"
    then click on "Processes"
    then select or highlight cfwd.exe and then "End task"
    Now you should be able to start FL again.


    By the way I use XP to play FL but this should work for Vista, Not sure about Win 7.


    Hope this helps :)

  • Crossfire 1.82

    Hi
    I sent a Email to AVG tech support and up loaded the EXE file and a DLL file AVG suspects and all I got back was an automated response says the alert is correct.


    I sent them another Email saying they are wrong but never got anything back. I don't think the AV company's care unless it cost them money in lack of sales.


    On another FL mod I used to play on we had a AV and Firewall Blacklist of programs not to use.

  • Hello SWAT and WOW!!

    Welcome mate.
    MP is definitely the way to go. :)


    We have just started a war between the ASF and the CSF factions.


    Also we have events where we go on mass to the Inner Core to fight some of the new Alien races and onto the Dom'k home world.
    You will get lots of people offering help with advice and credits to get you started.
    Contact me in game and I will help you get started :)

  • Silver Arrows Expedition #0475

    Hi This is Captain Crookey Reporting in.


    Just got back from the InnerCore
    Just for the record:-
    I am very sad to report that SA Arrow's ship was destroyed and his escape pod was tractor beamed in to an Alien Cruiser.


    We managed to to take out the Cruiser and re-take SA Arrow escape pod into my hold.
    We then proceeded to take out the Alien Fleet, there was only 4 of us now so it took a long time.
    Once all the ships where taken out we attacked a nearby Alien base which took forever.
    The Aliens where calling in reinforcements but we prevailed.


    We managed to take out the Fleet and also the Alien base with only 4 Fighters.


    We then fell back to a Dom'k base in Weth where we made emergency repairs for the long journey back.


    Myself and Escort Rampage now had to get SA Arrow back to a Human base for emergency Medical treatment.
    Two Pilots stayed behind and guarded the gate from Ryssk to make sure we wasn't followed.
    These brave pilots where (Fallen) Mercenaro= and [UR]Psyclone.
    They did there job well and we never encountered any more hostiles until we got to Gurm.


    We made are way to Sovetskaya and now SA Arrow is recovering in the sickbay on the Gorlowka Carrier.


    Over and out.

  • Smuggler Convoy Hunt

    Hi
    Another great event thanks Shockwave.


    Everybody said how much then enjoyed the event.
    Good timing to as we had 2 new players who'd joined the server today, who were really impressed with the event.
    And thanks to Catch 22 and DC Blade who had us all running around in circles trying to catch them (which we didn't).


    Thanks again
