    All of that ambience you speak of is in Freelancer. Battleships, Stations, Cruisers, transports, all docking/undocking/launching escort ships, CSV's picking up scrap, repair ships making repairs, tugs hauling ships, miners mining asteroids, patrols, smugglers, etc. I've had as many as 80 ships...

    Problem with New game after installing WCU

    It's the Delphinus. It IS quite nice looking.

    When I was in the USAF, most pilots chose common names that were easy to remember. Most were either car names like; Mustang, 'Cuda, Camaro, or of aircraft, such as; Warthog, Crusader, Phantom, Eagle, etc. Other names used, included card games, Poker, Spades, Ace, King, etc. The main reason...

    A few bugs related to the latest version: I went into Kilrathi territory, and landed on a couple bases, a planet, and a carrier. 1) Whenever I purchased a Kilrathi ship, the "for sale" count never changed. 2) There were 2 versions of the "Cloaking Device." a) One under...

    Flyable ships?

    If I may interject something in regards to the Tarsus? While working on "The Reckoning" we discovered that the "Lowly" Tarsus is THE MOST POPULAR ship in Privateer. It took us ages to get anyone to model a Galaxy, we eventually got two rather poor models, and went with the better of the two...

    Download v4.65

    Freelancer uses UTF files to store several hundred sound bites in one file, for each of it's 20 or so voices. We've tried creating new UTF files, and editing the related INI files, to no avail. We also tried editing the existing files, but with no luck there, either. Version 3.0, which is...

    Important Announcement

    I love the new version! Been playin' it for the last few hours. Especially the new jump points! That Delphinus was/is an eye popper!!! Not sure if it's my imagination, or what, but the Retros & Pirates seem more aggressive in this version. Great work!

    Minor bug... The Demon's and Talon's are the only ones I've seen so far that have it. Their Engine Enhancement's and Reactor's are messed up. They show them as being: Engine/Engine_Enhancements and Reactor/Light Reactor/Medium Reactor/Heavy While the ones you can purchase are...

    Like the Hawk, and the Interface, but most of the other ships I don't recognize. (I assume that one ship is a new "Flying Asteroid?")

    Where to get WCU files

    Well, I WAS looking for what's been implemented. I read in another thread that the goal is to eventually have everything in, but that's a way's off. A printable map allows one to plan missions ahead, and to decide which missions will lead you to where you want to go. (It's always more fun to...

    Where to get WCU files

    Sounds great! BTW-I ran it with the files I have, and it's not bad! I like the Higher frame rates I'm getting. (75-115 compared to the 25-37 with the Remake.) I also love the increased size of the landing zones. (Refineries are hard to land at in Remake.) I did some hacking, and...

    Where to get WCU files

    Hmmm... I downloaded the zip files on the 21st, but there are rar files from the 22nd up, now. Any difference between them?

    A nosey person's questions

    Hellcatv: Thanx for the info. Most of the data is pretty straight-forward. In fact, I recognized several files as being almost exactly the same as files I used in "The Reckoning." (Files like the Cargo.CSV are Privateer data files that are constants in every Privateer version.)

    Where to get WCU files

    spiritplumber: What exactly do those 3 files do? That "bz2lan.exe" file is a bit large for my DUN. Are all 3 files required to run WCU? And what EXACTLY is WCU? (I've heard that it's similar to the Freelancer mod, "Privateer: The Reckoning," in that it adds more Wing Commander ships into...

    A nosey person's questions

    I'm curious as to where ship and base data are stored. IE: What ships are at what bases. What ships are in the game. I've discovered where individual ship models/textures are. I've discovered where bases are placed into systems. And I'm wondering what the various ship models are. I've...

    Privateer Remake 1.0 - Bugs

    F9 "Match Speed" problems... Matched speed with a Kilrathi ship, and it continued to pull away at top speed. Matched speed with a Kilrathi ship, and I kept flying up it's butt. (Very common problem.) Matched speed with a Kilrathi ship, blew it up, and THEN my speed jumped to 1000.

    Privateer Remake 1.0 - Bugs

    Annoying one, for me. Afterburner sound when hitting "Tab" key, even when no afterburner is onboard. AND... If speed is set to "0," hitting "Tab" will bring you to cruise speed, without afterburners. And has anyone noticed how big the ejection seat is? I flew it back to New...

    Which Capital Ships can be bought?

    We tried the "free adaptation" route in our "Privateer: The Reckoning" mod for Freelancer. With a very few exceptions, most people, who were fans of Privateer, pretty much stuck with the ships from Privateer. But, having ships from all of the Wing Commander games definately put you in a Wing...

    Pitched battle with one *HELL* of a payout!

    PR 1.0: Talking turrets

    Sounds a lot like "Moose" from Starlancer... Useful, but a pain in the rear, sometimes.
