have a mod to give

hello everyone,

i have not been around for some time, sorry for that .. but as some might know i have been working on a mod for long time.
now unluckily i both ran out of power (burnout) -and have real life need all the attention from me. i can`t finish .. but want to give it in good hands, so i`m looking for an experienced modder to make something really great out of it.


what is it?


4 new systems (2 unfinished)

planets orbiting the outer system

wormholes leading to predefined places by random

new guns using custom effects

new big tradelane

new shield components allowing variation (incl. icons)

all freelancer ships flyable (perfectly included, same for npcs)

commodities (incl. icons), armor upgrades, scanner / tractor beam, max. ammo depending on cargo hold, 2 base templates: prison / tekagis base, nomad bot (ship)

well, there`s a lot in it ..


what needs to be done:


setup market, finish systems, balance ships / equipment, names / infos (of course hehe), make new factions (i can assist on that), add a background; it`s up to you

of course i do not insist on everything to be as i wanted it, but it would be nice if some things remain ..


i will give any information you want, might even help finishing some things myself. i`m often online on msn/icq.
i will tell you some more ideas i have in mind .. and can send you some other goodies as well.


thx,
RimShot

EDIT:
here are some screenshots i found (for the visuals)

hyper tradelane
big station
tekagis base
nomad bots

Hi RimShot!

I probably cannot do exactly what you want, so that you might want to find someone else. But I have already made an own mod and I'm currently working on the next version of it (My mod is "The Monkeys 1.1".

When I saw the screenshots and read the post I thought that some of these things would be quite useful for my mod. As I also do not have so much time, I need very long to release new versions of my mod. Therefore it would be nice if I could use some of your new additions for my mod.

I have to say that my mod already has it's own story and therefore not all the things you made would fit into it. Besides I tried to keep the original FL style (no Starwars or Startrek ships, etc.). But as you said that for example all original FL ships are flyable and I also wanted to add some of these (I already added the CSV, Junis Defender, the Starblazer and the Blood Dragon of the Blood Dragons) this would be a great addition to my mod.

So, would you aggree if I have a look on your files and see if there are useful things for my mod. Of course you would get credit and we could also think together how to add some of your ideas to my mod.

I would be really thankfull, if you aggree with this!
