Thanks. Genesis started life as an updated version of Phoenix but took on a life of its own and became what it is now. There's obviously plenty to check out, if you get stuck with anything just post on here and we'll try to help you out

I just wanna say that this mod rocks . I decided to install and replay freelancer again but this time with some mod and im so glad i found this one. Congratz and thanks for all the hard work. I just dont understand how come more people dont play moded FL and why there are so little active servers? There are so many nice mods out there. Im thankful but also feel sorry for people that put in months/ years of work into this and then like not even 50 people play their mods . Ill start breaking into houses to install FL with this mod on peoples PC's xD. Btw im playing singleplayer for now because im still checking out the mod. What i wanted to ask is how many new ships are there in this mod ? I wont ask for locations ofc because i wanna find them myself but i would just like to know the number because i like the variety and like to test all ships for fun . p.s: I didnt wanted to open a new topic to say this so i posted in this one. I hope thats ok.

Hey unicomplex, anyone is welcome in FL. Hard to see people still playing this game. I suggest to you forget the OSP and enjoy the server, especially if you start as pirate. If no, well... its always one more target to toast... muahahahahaa
Also, I started a mini event with a good prize. Dont lose it!
See you in space.

I will download and install MP version of genesis later today because atm i have some stuff to do . And yes i would like to be a pirate but i must admit i never did RP on MP servers so if you are RP-ing on this server i will have to take some time to adjust myself to that style of playing. If anyone have some tips or advices for playing here please tell me so i dont mess something up in game

I have a general tip for you, unicomplex dude:
there's a lot of ways to "mess something". Being too careful could spoil your fun. Show respect as much as you would like to receive it - and you will have no problems.
RP is easy thing. Pretend you are like that character in your ship. Talk like him, work like him. Use your imagination. It brings more joy than just mute killing each other. But... If other guy is not in RP mood, that's his right as well. Show him some respect and than kill him. Kill him good. That's your right (if he's not on your side, hehehe).
And remember: killing someone repeatedly is not fair. Not fair at all. That's rude and rude people can't get bananas. They usually get sanctioned by admin.

Thanks Crassie ill make sure to read those rules @ Pepe Thanks for the tip. I know what RP is , its just , i think my lack of skill to improv in certain situations might annoy some serious RP-ers so thats what i was worried about . Other than that im kinda familiar with all those standard rules that almost all MP games have. I was a WoW player for a long time Btw can i ask you guys here about looting in this mod or should i open another topic for that ? I just wanted to ask how does that work in this mod when you are fighting a npc? Because, for example i played some other mods and i saw that no matter who attacks a certain npc ship , all people (players or other npc's) around can loot its cargo, while here i see thats not the case.I ran into couple of battles between criminals and the police and was hanging around to see if i can scoop something that they drop when destroyed but there was nothing.Do i need to start the fight with the ship so i could loot its cargo or what ?

That's your right (if he's not on your side, hehehe) If it's a non RP character then you cannot kill them, end of story. Only way an RP char can kill a non RP character is if they attacked you first, then you can shoot back. This is to protect non RP players so they can get used to the mod and fly around in peace. unicomplexWelcome aboard. Loot randomly drops from any fight, sometimes it's there, sometimes not. Help yourself to anything floating in space, just watch out for contraband

Glad to hear dude, I will gladly RP with you anyway. No cargo happens: - if your target is not virgin (some NPC fighted it before you or even kill it before you) - if some NPC or player tractors cargo before you - if cargo was blasted by that damned NPC torpedo spam (or by mines). Sometimes they even manage to blast mission cargo, OUCH! - if cargo get perished when left too long too far - if shows one kind in scan, but drops other kind or other quantity (rear, but happens. But it's not often, ya know... :

@ Gibbon Thanks for the info and thanks for the warm welcome But can you please tell me how many new ships are there in your mod ? Besides vanilla ones. Ships that players can fly. Usually mods have a list of features saying there is for example 20 new systems, 40 new ships etc etc. Btw vanilla ones that are redone in your mod realy look beautiful.Space looks amazing also.Im realy loving everything so far.

unicomplexI suggest you read the 'README' file in the mod folder. Has all the information you require andycIn MP you ask a nice admin and we can turn you into a Nomad In the OSP version this isn't possible sadly. When the new version comes out, the Nomad faction for players will work properly so have to wait till then for a new Nomad character

We will convert it for you but you need one of us around to do this. It will have to wait until 1.2 is out first anyway
