128meg ram on a 9800pro radeon (system has 2gig ram) I'm e-mailing those files now.

I'm for easier shopping. Loading and reloading to try to spawn items is more frustrating than a feature, if that makes sense. Feel free to make availability a mission reward, that is fine, but darn it all, don't just make it painful to try to find upgrades. On that topic, having bought...

Ok, I'm in the sequence with the good major (she hopes) running missions for the confeds at the beginning of RF. Having a devil of a time buying fusion cannon (they don't seem to spawn much). As I start my patrols of New Caledonia I get an error message and the game folds up on me. I'll...

When I suggested changing the lasers to a faster firing model (about three times faster), the original "gatling gun laser," one of my goals was to make things with the default laser more dangerous. ...

Neat, I'll be bookmarking it. Thanks!

We could use a thread on adding the WCU add-on to PR. Sounds like fun.

I actually like the asteroids the way that they are done in the Remake. When I had discussed a possible second add-on (like Righteous Fire was the first) with the guys at Origins, one of the possible equipment mods was a "slide field" that would have made collisions with other ships and with...

Good point. Lots of things are sometimes in stock, sometimes not.

Good, I'll just keep shopping until they show up. Got to admit, I liked the fact in RF that I didn't have to hunt and peck all over to find and buy things. On the other hand, I'm really enjoying this remake.

Which was a real bite.

I don't know what possessed me, but I didn't get out of the fleet (in Privateer I always ran away from the fleet to avoid stray shots), survived anyway. But, I made the mistake of taking a couple missions in Oxford afterwards, on reputation repair. 17 retros and 17 kilrathi ... how in heck...

Freelancer is, in many ways, what Roberts wanted to make Privateer into. It shows failings as well as some good ideas -- and it has on-line hooks for multiple players

I hit P and when I came back and hit it again, I'd taken a fair amount of damage, even though when I hit P there were no enemies in range. Hmm, I rarely hit P, must have been an artifact. Like using it with the Nav map.

Darn, you can't do what I used to do and build up a huge reserve of it by killing only retros as you work your way up to enough cash to begin the plot. I like to "save up" "goodness" to carry me through so I don't have to take a break from the plot.

Ah, thanks. I've been looking all over ;) I'm wondering if since energy seems to not be a problem I should switch to Ionic Pulse Cannon or not, but I'll hold off, since I'm enjoying the tachyons. Finally got the tractor beam to work. I'd had some situations where it seemed to work...

Ahh, that explains the trouble I was having repairing it after Palan ... I thought there was something wrong with my understanding of some ratios. Can it go over 100 as well? Big shock. Got the Steltek gun, Steltek Drone immediately appeared in same system. Also, it has been kind of fun...

New Detroit and in the starting system is where I've actually seen them for sale or bought one.

Just won Oxford on the third attempt. On the first I was surprised by the Demons being green targets. Arghh. On the second I realized that the enemies are persistant, so the first wave had the leftovers from the first attempt. I killed them all and then reloaded and made sure my second nav...

Great news, Oxford has more than enough Retro hunting missions available to fix any alignment problems. Which highlights an issue. Faction scores never go above 100 or below -100 (except on the e^etc. ones which are always temporary). It makes the plot work better, though it does prevent...
