What is Parallels?
-
If you are friendly with the base faction owner, why should it be red? I guess your reputation is ok with them...

Yes - actually a day to hang out with friends (maybe a drink or two). And only because Christ had to go to heaven. So thanks to Christ

Everyone has a mum - so happy holidays to all the mums out there!

As I stumbled over one more tiny thing to remember after reinstalling Windows 10 to get Freelancer and Crossfire working, you can follow the next steps. Without direct play active, Crossfire will start, but will crash immediately — reporting a Crossfire Crash Exit — CODE ffffffffc000000005 [E000000E8] in the logs.
Guide to reinstalling Windows 10 and enabling DirectPlay
Introduction:
Reinstalling Windows 10 may be necessary to resolve issues with the operating system or create a clean environment for your computer. However, if you have games or applications that require DirectPlay (such as Freelancer), you may need to manually activate this feature as it is disabled by default in newer versions of Windows 10. This article will guide you through the steps to reinstall Windows 10, activate DirectPlay through the Control Panel, and also via the Command Prompt.
Part 1: Activating DirectPlay through Control Panel:
- Open Control Panel: Click on the Start menu and search for “Control Panel.” Open the Control Panel by clicking on the corresponding search result.
- Programs and Features: In the Control Panel, click on “Programs,” then click on “Programs and Features.”
- Turn Windows features on or off: On the left side of the window, click on “Turn Windows features on or off.”
- Activate DirectPlay: Scroll through the list of Windows features until you find “DirectPlay.” Check the box next to “DirectPlay” and click “OK.”
- DirectPlay Installation: Windows 10 will now install DirectPlay. This process may take a few minutes.
- [Optional] Restart: Restart your computer to apply the changes.
Part 2: Activating DirectPlay via Command Prompt:
- Open Command Prompt as Administrator: Right-click on the Start button and select “Command Prompt (Admin)” from the context menu.
- Run Command: In the Command Prompt window, type the following command and press Enter:
- Installation: The DirectPlay feature will now be installed. Wait for the process to complete.
- [Optional] Restart: Restart your computer to apply the changes.
Conclusion: After completing these steps, you should have DirectPlay activated to run older games and applications that require this feature.

I've been contemplating lately that aging can be a challenging part of life.
We all become “children” again as we grow older. Our loved ones are also growing old. Eventually, family assumes an increasingly critical role, particularly when it comes to caring for our aging parents or grandparents. They have raised us, and it is our responsibility to take care of them during their “second adolescence”. I understand how time-consuming and stressful it can be, as I have gone through a similar situation with my grandparents.
I wish you strength to get through it. It won't be easy, but you will get through it. I advise taking some time to relax, as it won't help anyone, and certainly won't improve the situation if you don't get some peace and quiet. Perhaps consider enjoying a game from time to time.
I think everyone in the community is immensely appreciative of your creation.

A rough guess - wrong or not complete installation. Try getting the latest launcher update here on the download section:

... Because they fell of the rim and have never been seen again 😂🤣

Facts are only facts, if one is in the same universe. For flat-earthers it is a fact that the earth is flat - for the others just the other. Just with the economic or political topics, it is not so simple to speak of the “facts”. If there are different teachings/theories to an economy, then the facts of the one theory are not necessarily also the facts of the other theory.
Mankind should have learned this already from the history of the whole religious wars.
The nice thing about this is actually when you can still peacefully agree on the different views. In the ideal, one must simply accept it that there can be different facts. If you don't come together, then it's just a realization, and you leave the subject and move on to the next one. Convincing someone else that my view of things is the ultimate right one is just wrong and also only leads to conflicts.
If you are bothered by someone else's thoughts, then maybe you should rather ignore it and deal with other issues. Sometimes you just can not agree on something the same. To close an entire thread (on discord) because of it is possibly a bit of overreaction – action in affect
Just my 2 cents... -
You shall always take a break after 2 hours of playing. Just a good idea to use the travel time for that break.

For me, it seems that freelancer was exited normally (internally or externally). Code 00000001 is no special crash case. If freelancer crashed, then we also would have another exit code.

Happy new year, may it just be better than the old 2022 one. That should be feasible.

Hello new, I am old

Ich denke, hier würde man eher den Modding-Aspekt der Frage beantworten und nicht, was man im Spiel irgendwo erwerben kann. Ich kann das später nochmal heraussuchen und hier beantworten.

ok, I can see it now
this can improve side way parking a lot

IMHO, we don't need any of the military powers at all - at least not like it is in the current state with east vs. west. There is nothing like that on a globe. For America, Russia is west
However, we have the UN - an institution that includes almost all the countries on this globe. Acts against any of the countries must be dealt with there. This institution needs an army - consisting of all partial armies of the member states. Disputes between countries must be settled before this institution. And if one country acts militarily against another, then it must reckon with the consequences that this institution enacts. If necessary, this would also be military actions, if the diplomatic means are not sufficient.
It is clear that this will not solve the conflicts of this world, but it enables other nations to act and intervene in the name of this globe. Who wants to take revenge, takes revenge on the community of this globe.
I can't understand this ideology about this is my country and this is your country. Borders exist only because people draw them or have drawn them. Nature has no drawn land borders, which then also divides peoples into West and East and North and South. If mankind does not manage to overcome this hurdle, then we will probably exterminate ourselves soon.

... And the instead time goes by with nothing. If no one will change the rules and regulations of these institutions then the wheel stops. No reforms, no changes.
This can be done while the UN still exist.
