Lancer MD to Lancer Gameshark(): first of all u only need a hyperspace capable ship to sprint trough all those battles. But it's true they're a little to big...so I will probably remove the big battleships alltogether or leave only one per group. About the tradelanes..u're getting lazy now. All u need is a good hyperspace capable ship and u'll make the Earth Trip in no time....

ED, i'll look into those controls asap. About adding more battleships, i don't think so...i had to add those because i wanted to add them into random missions. I don't think a Battleship should be flown as a fighter. It's a command and control tactical center...i saw a preview for the X2:the Threat game and it said among other things that u'll get a multi-view screen for capital ships allowing u to view and control turrets, and even the launched fighters.
That's what i like to see in FL as well, so that's why i don't want to add BS's as flyable fighters...it's not the same.

Lazy? Haha. with tradelanes in EAF and the numbers of VHFs and BSes in the area, disruption chances of the tradelane is pretty high and also making is a very high death threat.

I love the HyperD-ing and all. Just wanted to see EAF with something new, not just planets and deep empty space.

Woot! I like your take on Battleships. I agree with it wholeheartedly. I was only curious since you DID make a few non-FL ships available for flight, starting way back when with the Whitestar. I'm still waiting for some mod to let me fly a cruiseliner.

I'm waiting for a game that does massive spaceships well. Probably the best I've personally seen is the Starfleet Command series, even with as bug-ridden as it was. I was honestly hoping for something in Freelancer when it came out, what with their talk of freighters, but "oh well."

Sorry for not replying in the past few days but my local net was down due to a powerfull thunderstorm and they only fixed it today. Version 2.11 of Rebalance is almost ready to launch. What else will it have: some new special house weapons for Liberty, Bretonia and Rheinland and the EMP Gun. The Freighter Liner from Paul (i love the idea and the design). Perhaps some new clases of weapons for pirate factions. also all improvements from the Lite version.

*whimper*
I came here to beg you not to put ANOTHER semi into the game, but it looks like it's already too late. Sigh. Welcome to "Rednecks in Space." Lets change the character model to Ashton Kutcher with his John Deere cap on, and all sing "Convoy."

Well i'll think about it but this model seems definely much better lookin' than the Fedex freighter. How bout replacing that one with the Fl 5400?

Post Tue Aug 19, 2003 8:28 am

That ship is so colorful! I wonder how can you avoid being a nice, juicy, colorful target! T_T Anyways, do you think that maybe try to get some schmucks to do some other models? New Star Wars, Star Trek models? Who knows, maybe some Transformers ships from Generation 01. Who knows. I'll be waiting.

Hey Mike
Please put in the new Enterprise model on the main page , it looks great.

Post Tue Aug 19, 2003 3:22 pm

I do think this ship would be a step up from the Fed-Ex. I hate slamming any ship, because I know someone spent time designing it. I never actually thought the ship was bad, just that it never fit into the Freelancer universe. I always thought it was designed more as a joke than for actual inclusion in a serious mod. I see the Freightliner the same way, but maybe I just need to lighten up.

In Kyushu, there is a Crash2Desktop bug there. Most happens at a Depot base after Battleship Nago. In the middle of the map with a purple planet with ring. Happens when it tries to load something near the base. I am suspecting it might be a Battleship.

I've to report a strange bug (see my post of 30 july): in FLRebalance 2.01 you can't dock with Leipzig Station. It seems that the station has been moved some 500m. I tried different ships, no chance for docking. (Description: function "docking" (F3) causes endless turns round the "docking point" which is far from the station hardly visible in the fog)
Why this repetition of the post here ?
Some days ago I installed Giskards Hostile Universe 8.0-Mod. And: you can't dock - you guess it - at Leipzig ...
Michael: is it possible that a (probably old) mistake has been copied and used by different modders ? I do not know the history of the material You, Reynen, Giskard and others worked with. But it is obvious that such a strange bug appearing in different mods must have ONE source.

MD, do you think it is possible to make a list of the ship locations? I think you made one before, do you think you can reupdate that list again?

Post Fri Aug 22, 2003 9:49 pm

Hello Micheal

Are you nearly done yet ! Can't wait to get new version.
I hope you have put in the new Enterprise model that was posted a couple a days back on the main page, it was lookin pretty good.
Of course your work will never be done if ship creators keep pumpin out good models, like the 29 Babylon ship pack that just apeared on the main page, I bet theres a few models in there worth throwing in.(hint-SHADOW SHIPS)
Anyway I leave it all in your good hands, us people with no skills all appreciate your hard work.

Michael,

One of the reasons your mod is so cool is the number of added ships you've put in the FL universe. I hope that you add the newer ships to echo what the last person wrote. I think that new starviper is really sweet. I want to see your mod have all the coolest ships, as many as you can stuff in there.

Cool
