"undock"-bug again ...

... I sport win 7 64bit and I had no probs, neither with download nor running the downloaded .exe .....

So you think it's good "just" because it is expensive ??

one of the oldest "tricks" of sales managers

As denne said : some shields are good against certain weapons, some not and the same counts for weapons.
You remember ?
Graviton shields are good against Laser and Photon weapons but bad against Particle and Plasma weapons
Positron shields are good against Neutron and Tachyon weapons but bad against Pulse and Laser/Photon weapons
and so on.

And NOW look WHAT weapons your proposed enemies sport and THINK again. (might spare you some money)

Therefor : for those going to Hiruga for the Adv. Champion H.F. Shield , look here : SMG - Hiruga System Rules PRIOR to entering Hiruga System !!!

As a side note it might be interesting, that SMG is a long standing CF-clan of very experienced former PIRATES . They might fall back into such habbits on seeing/sensing you have been there without permission.

NICE

Will wait until then for another installlation. ... more of interest might be the links to the new portal and server website services (CF-Stats, threads, etc.)

hmm, dll ed it 18 minutes ago, installed, "TV Channels" still there

edit :
- online Player Status : "Page not found"
- TV Channels : still there, they don't connect
- Games : don't work (link ??)
- Wather : works well
- Extra links : work
- CF Clan Forums Menu :
--- BG : links
--- CFPD : links (to your "old portals" site )
--- UR : links
--- SA : links
--- IOC : link not there
--- SMG : link not there
--- LP : links (but no activity last 2 years )
--- LC : link not there
--- FALLEN : link not there
- Other Clans :
--- PX : ok
--- CoP : ok
--- TRF : : link there (even activity there , but not in CF anymore as it seems)
--- GOP : same as above
- ASF/CSF section : links to old portal
- CF Stats : don't work
- SWAT Portal Chat : links to old portal
- the links for "threads" => old portal

that's what I did just 1/2 an hour ago

It is "installable" to the newest Firefox and works .... mainly.
Only the links to the server and the portal aka the reagrding functions don't work (since "moved" last year).

... or have you uploaded a new version there during the last 30 minutes ? ... will give it another try, testing every option there ...

..update would be nice

... esp. the links need to be redone (just tested ...)

It's back

try the savegame from the zip to be found here : Completed Crossfire 2.0 , post # 12

... in etwa wie Seething Fury, was "Agilität" angeht.

... and "can't undock" again ...

Doesn't seems so.
I could find only this : https://swat-portal.com/forum/…-Crossfire-Toolbar-26-12/ in the Filebase on a quick look. And this is the "CF 1.9" version. (Dunno if it works with current FireFox though ... )

May be ask @Michael who made it, if there is a "newer" version ? ... or planned

Antwort : JAIN
Seething Fury ist deutlich weniger "wende-freundlich", mehr wie der gute, alte Sabre oder Titan
Bullpup MK II ist dem Werewolf darin gleich, so wie in etwa der Eagle oder Black Eagle, wenn auch 'nen klein bißchen weniger "roll-freudig"

Was so eine "Liste der Wendigkeit" angeht .... Ich habe mal hier : ISIS Ships Informational Bulletin versucht so was aufzustellen, war aber 'ne frühere CF-Version und bei weitem nicht komplett.

Warum ich damit dann aufgehört habe :
Ich mußte feststellen, daß "berechnete" Wendigkeiten nicht unbedingt 1:1 ins Spiel zu übertragen sind, da die Form ebenfalls eine Rolle spielt, z.B. Längen-Breiten-Verhältniss, GRÖßE (sieht man leider erst, wenn man das Schiff gekauft hat), wie viele, wo und wie positionierte "Flügel", ....
Hilft nur andere Spieler fragen, die das gefragte Schiff fliegen oder schon mal geflogen sind ... oder hier im forum

Quote from SWAT_OP-R8R

The difficulty of these specific NPCs has to be hard... because of the MP.
The MP Community has learned to fight them... thats the point.... offering a real challenge to the people which love the hard fights.

... As a "convertite" from from dedicated SinglePlayer to (almost ..?) addicted OnlinePlayer let me tell you :
Once I lamented loudly about the "weird super-duper" abilities of NPCs on the server, then I started to "use" them as ... sparring for improving my SP abilities, now I go hunting them on the server, Ancient Drones, Inner Core Aliens, DK Gunboats - sometimes even alone ... for sparring against other MP players (sparring that I REALLY need ) and for what it is still not enough.
There are players who do these NPC hunting all alone even on a regular basis, trying to make an ingame fortune by selling their very interesting loot .

Just to tell and assure you : there IS a learning curve vastly improving your abilities to counter every NPC to be found. Now, the NPCs in SP are ... "easy peasy" and not much of a challange anymore, ... part of why I - nowadays - prefer playing it Online - beside the fun you can have with this great community here.

They used to invade sirius from time to time.(we will re-introduce this soon)

nope - for MP, but ... have you tried SINGLE PLAY option ?
