    well all the equipment is stored in a .fl file, all that would be needed is a program that makes sure all players stay with in that limit, say 80 then issue a warning to the player that he/she is at the limit, but if they go over say 90 then this program kicks in and deletes say 20 odd equipment from the files. EDIT: just thinking this would be a good addon for ioncross Edited by - NightHound on 6/12/2005 4:26:58 PM

    <font size=1 face="trebuchet ms"><BLOCKQUOTE><hr size=1 noshade>I´m not sure. I´m currently working on my well EXE/DLL research and would love to hear other people´s ideas on new features etc etc. Btw, should I post some screenshots/video/whatever in the mean time to wet people´s appetites? Hmm...maybe I should... <hr size=1 noshade></BLOCKQUOTE></font><font face=´trebuchet ms, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica´ size=2> hmmm so many choices wet appetite or wet appetite.... hmmm new feature, well i´m not sure if you´d call this a cheat or not but i´d love to have a signitre system where a active camo make you into a incomplete object that´s near you, when you move/shoot/ect the signitre becomes more...ect i can think of new &quot;things&quot; but new features are hard <img src=smilies/icon_smile_tongue.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>, what having control of multipal ships ? like in x2 , or a command option where you control multipal ships for missions/ect..... that´s all for now <img src=smilies/icon_smile_wink.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

    <font size=1 face="trebuchet ms"><BLOCKQUOTE><hr size=1 noshade> I have thought of this too but the amount of bandwidth which would be consumed sending all the ini´s etc etc for every player would be daunting. But perhaps something could be done. But I´d also like to know people´s opinions on cheating - is it still a really big issue, doesn´t IONCROSS eliminate most cheating problems? <hr size=1 noshade></BLOCKQUOTE></font><font face=´trebuchet ms, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica´ size=2> coulden´t a xml type thing be done where only the changed info is sent ? you´d have to hide the file other wise cheaters could change it.... Ioncross only stops cheaters once they start cheating, like i could have a mod active eg WTS and be on manhatten every thing would be fine till i either launched/looked at inventory/looking at ships to buy/or equipment, i´ve done it before and ioncross hasen´t kicked a spaz but there´s a posibility that i´ll qtd or be deteched as cheating..... correct me if i´m wrong <img src=smilies/icon_smile_wink.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

    with the source code of Allegiance it would be posible to add the items inquestion, it´s just <b>alot </b> of hard work.... after looking at the videos of it, id say all it needs is a sound and graphic mod then the modded source code and we have a freelancer 2 <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> ps i make it sound easy but it´s not, it will be very hard, and alot of time will have togo into it Edited by - NightHound on 6/8/2005 4:18:42 PM

    to me it seems that some one should ask ms what we´d be able todo with the exe and dll´s, not if we can have the source. to me if these new features work, then ms would make more money becuase FL would become better, then once the new features get circalting then happy for all. but insaying that ms would also have to change the licence of FL puplicly allowing these new features.... P.S maybe a petition should be made on weather these new features could be legel NightHound

    I agree with FriendlyFire what are you...... <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> It will be interesting to see if microsoft step in.....hope not Well done Alcander my hat off to you..... <img src=smilies/icon_smile_tongue.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> <img src=smilies/icon_smile_wink.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>
