If wanting to find more active servers look at the following then google their forums

Microsoft Global Server in offline for good.

Some of the mods have autoupdaters for direct connect so this list may also help by showing current activity <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.cryosphere.f2s.com/Freelancer/server-activity.php">http://www.cryosphere.f2s.com/Freelance ... tivity.php</a><!-- m --> and you can easily get the homepages from it.

Open FLserver.exe and FL.exe with ResHacker (or similar program), change the version details the same in both files.

A version 2.5 would look like

1 VERSIONINFO
FILEVERSION 2,50,1254,11
PRODUCTVERSION 2,50,1254,11
FILEOS 0x40004
FILETYPE 0x2
{

{
BLOCK "040904B0"
{
VALUE "Comments", ""
VALUE "CompanyName", "Microsoft Corporation"
VALUE "FileDescription", "Freelancer"
VALUE "FileVersion", "2, 50, 0, 0"
VALUE "InternalName", ""
VALUE "LegalCopyright", "© 2003 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved."

}
}

Interesting, how exactly have you achieved this?

Or get Drizzt4.0s_Ship_Creating_Tutorial_V1.5.pdf from <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://files.filefront.com/Drizzt40s+Ship+Creating+Tutorial+v15/;9545916;/fileinfo.html">http://files.filefront.com/Drizzt40s+Sh ... einfo.html</a><!-- m --> and go to page 22 on

You could hunt out the "shipscripter" utility by Crabtree CNN, just place shipscripter in download search box and link will appear.

This will create the files for you, or you could do it manually just copy the files and entries the sscripter and do your own from then on.

You also nit a ,mat file in addition to the cmp and sur.

In shiparch.ini

The following example will mount up to level 10 gun (first entry after the =). In this instance that gun will mount on any of 5 hard points. HpWeapon01 to 05

hp_type = hp_gun_special_10, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05
hp_type = hp_gun_special_9, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05
hp_type = hp_gun_special_8, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05
hp_type = hp_gun_special_7, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05
hp_type = hp_gun_special_6, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05
hp_type = hp_gun_special_5, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05
hp_type = hp_gun_special_4, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05
hp_type = hp_gun_special_3, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05
hp_type = hp_gun_special_2, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05
hp_type = hp_gun_special_1, HpWeapon01, HpWeapon02, HpWeapon03, HpWeapon04, HpWeapon05

And the reps match in \ Data \ initialworld.ini?

Have you looked at the how-to-build-your-own-factions pdf in the downloads section?

<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.eredivine.net/FLDev_1.001b01.zip">http://www.eredivine.net/FLDev_1.001b01.zip</a><!-- m -->

Cruise speed change

data\constants.ini

entry clearly shown.

Will affect all crusing speeds.

Individual thrust etc. find the thruster in
data\equipment\st_engine.ini and play with the force, you may also wish to play with the ship mass in shiparch.ini to fine tune.

Stick 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Freelancer\data\MISSIONS\M01A\m01a.ini into search, there are 4 hits, do any of these help?

GOI changed to Aussiefreelancers but is now defunct together with the forums etc.

Some mods also use a direct autoupdater and may not appear on this for example North Quadrant and Monkey Universe do this (I think).

Try the downloads section it has 3 tutorials regarding this and using FLExplorer

flexplorertutorial.zip
flexplorertutorialvolume2.zip
tutorialvolume3.zip

As long as you are careful at the end and remove the extraneous stuff it leaves in (check against and unmodded file) you should be ok.

What are you using
FL-ids? make sure that the dll is not read only and also you do not have programmes like FLStat open.
