Librelancer, M06 Decter race testing

Librelancer, M06 Decter race testing

Now almost mostly implemented, just some weapon platforms missing spawning there. :)

After some fixes, LL will be playable in story mode up to the finish of mission 6.

Mysterious Ice System | Freelancer Nomad Legacy

This is only prototype: need to add enemies (nomads or something like this), black box with real voices (playership's will play them) and integrate it to the main universe.

Wait for more insane Freelancer content in future release of Nomad Legacy: Ultimate explorer edition :-D

Notes: lightnings is already improved, also I did some color correction, innard debris of willard's explosion was reduced

What do you think ? Freelancer nostalgia

Quick extract of my 6th game since I learn doing some.

I completely finish 4 small ones but this one is on a different scale.

I was a big fan of Freelance 20 years ago and was thinking of doing the same one with web technologies (part of my job so it helps). So I'm on it for the last month part time.

What do you think ?

Will you play ?

The first step will be 10/12 playables systems and an end game.

Thanks for your feedbacks

Project Sirius: First Screenshots + Menu Showcase

Hello everyone! So as you remember, I develop a remaster of Freelancer with Vulkan, Librelancer and recently added UE for rendering, the project has progressed a little bit. These screenshots taken from New York system show the current WIP state: main menu and character creation flow, early flight scenes with the Starflier, planet Manhattan and station shots, early work on recreating the Freelancer atmosphere with modern visuals

This is still in development. Flight controls, combat, economy, missions, multiplayer, and lots of polish are still being worked on. I’m trying to preserve the feel of the original rather than turn it into a completely different space sim. Apart from full PBR support and ray tracing, I also have a nice night view on the dark side of Manhattan.

Nomad 80s-style system (experiment) | Freelancer Nomad Legacy

Example of another explorable location from future release of Nomad Legacy mod (you can call it "ultimate edition" instead of just "dlc"). This is "Work in progress" content and will be upgraded later. You also can check out test os Monkey system and prototype of second Nomad Lair. Main idea of gameplay: find nomad gates, open them by mini-game, enter strange locations, reach the end to push forward "meta-story". Or just collect access keys for bases with top-level equipment including infinite cloaking device and top-level ships. Main restrictions in such locations: you can not travel back. You always MUST reach the end. So, you can call it "extraction space shooter". Some locations have no enemies, just race tracks. So... it will be extraction don't-shooter

Question about the single Campaign

Hey guys a question, i played this game a long long time and i thought to replay it after i finished Starlancer. I remember and since confirm it that while playing the single player campaign a lot of systems are locked and they are subsequently unlocked after you finish the campaign.

My question, is there a way to unlock them without finishing the campaign? I currently have the vanilla version with the HD mods.

How do I change the resolution in HD?

Played FL back in the day, decided to come back to it again, but man this is such a killjoy. I give up. Help!

How do I change the resolution?! I installed it with the 0.7 setup with these selections:

  • Startup Screen Resolution: Remove Startup Screen
  • Logo Resolution: 1080p 16:9 - 1920x1080
  • Fix small text: No
  • Fix clipping with 16:9 planetscapes: Yes
  • Skip startup intros: No (wanted full immersion)
  • Apply Best Video Options: Yes
  • Display Mode: Borderless Windowed

None of the listed resolutions are relevant for me, so I picked the 1920 ones. I intended to play in either 1920x1080 or in 2500ish (Ultrawide) depending on what it looks like. But, my native resolution is 3840x1080 (yes, "super-ultrawide", like gluing two 1920 displays together without a bezel in the middle). And, it seems like I cannot change the resolution in any way. I tried using the options menu, I tried editing the config files like back in the day. Nothing works, it just keeps going back to my full native resolution no matter what I do.

How do I change the resolution around so I can figure out what looks best?

Bonus points:

When I launch, it's a phantom window (screenshot of my desktop with whatever I had open being visible in a frozen snapshot of the preview in Alt+Tab miniature view). I think I need to click into it and then hit ESC a few times, before the menu shows up. I'm assuming it's either related to the startup screen being disabled, and / or the videos trying to play... but not being able to play in the 3840 wide borderless window? Would that fix itself if I managed to launch it in 1920? Or is that a different issue?

Fonts seem to be all there and fine, correctly sized from what it seems like as well, but... they all just cut off before completing the words, like the "text fields" are too short. Is that also due to resolution, or what's going on there?

Here's what the menu looks like, with the text getting cut off... well, everywhere

Other space/sci fi games with RP servers/communities

I used to play in Discovery Freelancer on and off for like a decade but I don't really want to go back there because last summer, I wasn't able to find anyone on the server to RP with in-game.

But I'm getting the RP itch. Anybody have any recommendations?

I've heard space engineers, elite dangerous and star citizen have some RP communities (off of AI search) but I don't know much else.
