    Freelancer installed who's up for MP

    in FreeLancer

    Posted · Edited by rtr~SPARTA~

    Hi Morgan,

     

    The main problem was that microsoft retired the Global server list last year so in MP no servers will show up. We tried the tool in the freelancer\exe folder (fldirectip.hta) but couldn't connect. Their are various workarounds but they seem just to show a limited number of servers and don't act like a true master server list.

     

    The only way we have got things working is through Xfire. (www.xfire.com). and adding it as a custom IP to your xfire favourites.

     

    Xfire is just really handy for joining servers or seeing if anyone is on a server without launching the game. Most of the chatting features are rarely used by the spartans

     

    You can try running the direct ip tool C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Freelancer\EXE\ fldirectip.hta next time we play but you'll need to jump on Teamspeak to get the server IP and password

     

    Floyd installed the 1.4 patch (unofficial) so have Dai and I. It seems client side so you don't need it - probably.

     

     

    just tested fldirectip.hta and it worked! for Dai-sans server get the IP and password on Spartans Teamspeak.

    Hello

     

    COD4 night needs a couple of extra maps which are quicker DLed before rather than during the game. Others know more than me about this, so they can point you in the right direction.

     

    Arma Gold edition is super cheap right around 18 bucks at amazon

    and includes Queen's Gambit expansion. You might find it even cheaper in a local bargain bin.

     

    Welcome and good hunting

    Hi,

    Last week on TS I mentioned I had a visit from the police re a blue BMW which was dumped outside my house on Thursday last. It was the getaway car for a robbery at a local bank, they attacked a Security Officer as he was delivering money and made off with the cash box.

    The demo and I assume the full game uses a data folder that take precedence over the main game folders. They just created a new pak file which they have you copy to the root directory (early versions of the mod involved copying the files into the afore mentioned data directory) the game reads the data in the new pak file, all the info was already in the demo but had been 'locked' they just made it available. They haven't hacked the exe just used ubi's own setup against them :darkvador:

     

    Their kung fu is strong....

    I grabbed it Tuesday and have had a couple of sessions which I really enjoyed. As long as you don't expect a flight sim and take your time to get use to the OFF view. The graphics are excellent and the Geoeye ground is sweet. I got to see it up close right before smacking into it . Even with multiple aircraft in the sky it runs really smoothly.

     

    Here's a hands-on MP at Gamespot
