Rebalance MP player start questions

  • Just checked, and the Rebalance I downloaded for him is version 3.4, with a patch upgrade 2.1. Would he be better off with v.3.5? Or maybe an older version? redgab

  • Hey redgab, Yeah, the start loadout and location stunk in 3.4. They were not very .. conducive to success (or fun) as a starting player, to say the least. Rebalance v3.5 is going to start with a better ship in a less hostile location. You´ll have a little cash to maybe give your rig a minor lift right from the start, or you can save and work towards the better stuff right off the bat. I´m sorry that your son´s first experience with Rebal (MP, at least) was less than what you had in mind (I felt the same way before I started modding to fix things). But like I said, we´ve made sure things are in order for 3.5, so stay tuned for some future fun and balance <img src=smilies/icon_smile_wink.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Ro9ue __________________________________________________________ &quot;Do you see the slightest evidence anywhere out there that man was the climax towards which creation had been straining from the beginning?

  • Hi red, if ur son wants to give 3.5 a try, heres a site you can dl it from http://www.zodsworld.us/Downloads.htm he has the REBAL 3.5 beta 3 avilable for down load, and also there are 2 good servers for ur son (and your self ) to jion, the servers are BLACK SABBATHS BETA TEST SERVER and ZODS WORLD. Both run rebal 3.5 and as soon as its ready for release, they will be running the final version of rebalance. Hope you and ur son enjoy the rebalance experiance all of my questions are answers to my sins.and all of my endings are waiting to begin

  • Thanks, y´all! Will now go and DL the Rebalance 3.5 beta for him to try out. Anything to tricky to watch for in installation, or does it install with FLMM? redgab

  • there should be no probs with the install, use flmm and you should be flying ok, if you do get any probs, just deactivate the mod, and do a clean install of freelancer, and you should be ok, you may also want to dl the offical 1.1 patch from microsoft, and either the 1.3 sdk files on lancers or the unoffical 1.4 patch, which is also on zods site all of my questions are answers to my sins.and all of my endings are waiting to begin

  • Yeah, there should not be any problem if you just activate the mod from FLMM with no other mods activated (do a <b>Restore Backups </b> from the Options menu - or maybe it´s the Tools menu - one of those). If there are any problems, though (you are, after all, overwriting and deleting a <i>lot </i> of files), do as Sabb said and do clean installs of both FL and the mod. I tihnk the latest version of the FLMM is 1.31, and SDK isn´t mandatory but can´t hurt. By the way, the final version of 3.5 is nearly ready - about one more week is all goes as planned <img src=smilies/icon_smile_wink.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> All I can say is w00t w00t <img src=smilies/icon_smile_cool.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Later Ro9ue __________________________________________________________ &quot;Do or do not.
