A Thought PDF Print E-mail
Wednesday, 07 May 2008
I have sat here over the past few weeks and have read many of the posts, some had valids points, and gripes. Some were just ego's and alot of the past no one can seem to let go But nothing has in any way been constructive or in anyway helpful, not even the few shout outs from the peanut gallery about professionalism. I do not feel I waste my time on the site or idea of TLR, just on reading senseless post's. I do apologize for the few posts I put up, and I should have dealt with torch privately. I let my pride get the best of me, and it will not happen again.

I hope to have everything up and running very soon, as I am doing it by myself, I am looking for any ideas that were not posted directly to me or before I was here, as I hear there were alot of things suggested before I came here.

When I get a full blow layout of what is to come, I will post it hopefully in the next few days. I am messing around with some programming and software, as well as some ideas.

I am not going to post anymore, until I have something for the community.
It would just end up being white noise, and theres already enough of it.

I hope everyone will get over all the bs that has been going on here, and move on. If most of you feel that you are out of here, because of the flaming and bickering, I can understand.

I would like everyone to know that I do wish for TLR to continue and do appreciate all the help that has been offered, and for the ppl who have taken the time to talk to me, to find out whats been going on even though some blasted me for the way things are going. I know it wasn't directed at me but more at the site or staff in general. . . since I am the only one left, and ppl have moved on, I guess it comes down to me.

I am working on getting things going at another site because our site admin and I cannot communicate. If anyone here has anything constructive as far as suggestions and things they may like to have at the new site, please email me. I thought about putting up a thread but some have said that would be a bad idea as a lot of ideas would be thrown, then the bickering would start, so if you email them to me then there will be no insults flying or flaming.

I do appreciate Crazy hosting the site. It was very nice of him and many thanks go out. But our lack of communication brought this on, perhaps this is also partially my fault.

I do hope to see you all again,

MentalChaos

Monday, 05 May 2008
You ask, and you shall receive;

Uberlancer.com
The Unofficial Fansite and home to the 'Uberlancer Project'

What is Uberlancer?
UberLancer started as a Freelancer community wide project to build the ultimate Freelancer mod, or UberMod, incorporating as many community requests and suggestions as reasonably possible. But since opinions can vary greatly, the goal is not to create a mod that players want, the goal is to create a mod that players will play. But recently Uberlancer has grown into a community of Freelancer players and fans coming together to share thier passion about Freelancer.

The 'UberLancer Project' overview.
UberLancer is an open source "from the ground up" modification of the Freelancer game. The engine will be stripped bare, all ships and bases will be removed, all NPC factions will be removed (including NOMAD), the story will be thrown out, systems will be scrapped, and all game dynamics will be reset to zero.

After considerable community discussion, the mod will begin to be constructed from absolute nothing. Content from Vanilla that the community elects to preserve will be re-inserted, but for the most part ships will be all-new, there will be all new NPC's, all new bases, completely new and different systems, new commodities and equipment, and rewired game dynamics.

The 'base'story has been chosen and can be read in the following location; The Continuum. The story team have now begun work and are being followed by the rest of the modding teams.

The Uberlancer Community.
The Uberlancer Community Staff are happy to announce the latest version of our/your site. In an effort to keep the Freelancer community involved in this mammoth project we have undertaken, and since it's also the next logical step, we've decided to move a little toward making UberLancer into a Freelancer fan site. Don't worry, we're not intending to compete with any other Freelancer community sites, most other sites are either server forums, or are specialized in utilities, mods, and server operators.

This site is for you, the players.

The intent behind UberLancer is to have the community involved from start to finish in it's construction. There is no other way to call it a "community project". The best way to do that is to find a way to keep the community here, together. The new direction we are moving in will still be focused on the project, but we'll do things that will hopefully keep players interested and keep them coming back. Some of the things we've got planned to make this place a true community site is:
  • A Freelancer top gun tournament
  • Uber Arcade
  • Polls
  • Quizzes
  • Stories
  • Role play
  • Modeling competitions (ships! Keep your heads out the gutter!)
  • Server reports
  • Player rankings
  • And much, much more to follow.

Communication the Uberway!
Join us on Vent! UberLancer is running a Ventrilo server courtesy of Roo-Avery. If you're interested in live voice chat with Freelancer fans from around the world, then you're gonna love this. Log on now, there's no telling who you're going to meet. Click here for login and server info.

Don't have time for Vent? Want something fast and easy? While Ventrilo is the preferred method of communication, we also offer our very own IRC channel accessible from your forum. Simply click the "UberChat" link on the main menu and you're good to go.

UberNews!
For all the news that's fit to print. UberNews is your source for what's going on with the Freelancer community. If you'd like to submit your news story, please visit your forums at Uberlancer.com.

The team that are proud to bring you Uberlancer;

  • Roo-Avery

News from Fire_Wolf_br PDF Print E-mail
Saturday, 03 May 2008
Greetings!


I'm Fire_Wolf_br, and I'd like to show here about one of the newest SWAT Projects, which I'm the leader. The name of the mod is Freelancer: Expanded Universe, and it's based on the dream of many Freelancers around here: a mod which includes all the eight sleeperships in its story.

So, you'll ask me: "Who are the 'other three'"?

The other three sleeperships are based in the real world and Starlancer story: The ASF-SS Gallia and the ASF-SS Praetoria are from the other two Alliance nations which didn't had their sleeperships in the canon: France and Italy. The third sleepership is the ASF-SS Amazonia, from the Brazil. Well, according to its size, world importance and history with the Alliance nations, it could be the 8th country.

The first release of FL:EU will be open to the public soon. For now, I'd like to release here the first screenshots of this mod. Keep tuned to view the other screenshots which will be uploaded soon. Later I'll upload stuff more related with the Amazonian space and its ships, as soon as I fix some bugs.

http://www.lancersreactor.com/index....p?t=505&page=2

Last, but definetely not least, I want show to EVERYBODY here a nice homage which I created. Please visit it and comment it

Hamburg City Freelancer Server News PDF Print E-mail
Tuesday, 22 April 2008
Freelancer and our gameserver may be old, but we're still alive.
We want to present you a brief summary of what we did in the last 2 years

- Cloaking Device
We introduced Cloaking on special Rheinland ships that are available on a secret base in the New Berlin system.

- New Ingame Commands & Gameplay Features
Escort Command: Escorts in a convoy are now automatically paid by the server in case of a successful trade-run.
Tax Command: Server-supported taxing gets rid of the F1 problem regarding traders.
Universe Chat Channel: A Universe Chat that you can turn on or off.

- Extended AntiCheat & Graphical Improvements
The client mod now includes a clientside AntiCheat system, an external tool, like the old FLCD, is no longer required.
Because of this we now are one of the most secure Freelancer servers.
Apart from that, "high details" can now be turned on in the mod options, so the newest hardware does not have to get bored

- Dynamic Economy
The server now runs with a dynamic economy, that means boring trading of the same routes has now an end.
This works ingame without interruption, the prices change in realtime!
A true challenge for both sides: Traders and pirates.

- Brand-new Hardware & Hamburg City League
To deliver the best PvP experience possible, we always need high-end hardware. At the moment our server runs on an E8400 CPU (overclocked at 3.33 GHz) and with an eSport capable network connection, ideal conditions for PvP on the highest level!
The Hamburg City League, arguably one of the most active leagues in the Freelancer community at the moment, is now integrated into the Charmanager and therefore very userfriendly.
Register today and show the newbies how a veteran fights

Come check us out and have some fun
http://www.freelancerserver.de

Server-IP: 193.192.58.150:2302

Our server is completely compatible to 1.0 standard Freelancer clients.

ASF vs. CSF Faction PvP Event Returns to Crossfire! PDF Print E-mail
Saturday, 19 April 2008
During the last full week of each month, a unique PvP event is hosted on the Crossfire Freelancer Server, with two factions vying for control of territory in Sirius. Once reserved exclusively for server clans, this competition has now been opened to freelancers, as well.

Made up of the lawful clans, the Alliance Star Fleet struggles to contain the growing threat posed by the outlaws of the Confederate Strike Force. Combat moves from sector to sector, across multiple systems, as each side tries to gain a strategic advantage over the other. Massive battles with mixed fleets of fighters and capital ships are common, sometimes lasting for hours! Scoring is done automatically by the Robotic Referee System (RRS), coded specifically for Crossfire by Master Coder DC_Haegar, using faction-specific roleplay licenses.

The next ASF/CSF event is about to begin Sunday morning, 20 April, 2008, at 0000 hours, GMT. This competition has experienced considerable evolution in the past 2 years, and some of this history is seen amidst the following links.

For roleplay & server rules, see: www.crossfire.swat-portal.de/rprules.htm

For ASF/CSF event rules, see: http://www.swat-portal.com/php/wbboa...246c6e03247872

For freelancer qualifications & signup, see: http://www.swat-portal.com/php/wbboa...ee4b32a34987e7

Join the action at Crossfire, and see the fireworks first-hand!
