Aquatayne, if you don't know what a .sur is then why do you want to make one...?

Anyway, this thread should answer your questions.

Ok, what I would like to do is A) allow players to join factions, (like the Liberty Navy or the Outcasts.) classify some weapons and shields as military gear, requiring member ship in a faction to keep police from trying to kill you, and C) create new shield ranks, so that not all shields are the same, (like a class 1 graviton and a mark II class 1 graviton shield.) Can these be done? I know they are far beyond my ability, but if they can be done, they give me something to work for. If not, back to the drawing board.

I take it your looking for the God Mode.

"My Documents\My Games\Freelancer" is where you'll find it and yes you are invincable in singleplayer but it doesn't work if your playing online.

You need the Milkshape CMP importer plug-in, it's in the download section of this site.

Im using BiniQDU to edit shiparch.ini but I cant make it save correctly. It always saves it as shiparch.ini.txt and the game doesnt recognize the .txt format. All I want to do is edit the Sabre fighter to have as much cargo capacity as possible and all level 10 gun mounts as opposed to the current setup of 4 9's 4 10's and 1 10 turret. Thanks! And sorry if this has been asked/answered before but 47 pages of information is way the hell to much to look through.
