Freelancer Quickfix Patch V1.0c
Description:
The Freelancer QuickFix Patch is the ultimate unofficial patch available to the Freelancer community. All versions of the SDKs and other unofficial patches, by anyone, will be superceded by the QuickFix patch. With that being said, anyone who has a fix they would like included in this patch for future versions needs to contact me. Additionally, if you know of bugs in the latest version of this patch that cause crashes in Multiplayer games, let me know. One last important note about this project is that there will no longer be a Plus version because this confused many people. From now on server admins will have to install the Microsoft 1.1 Patch over their copy of Freelancer as they used to do before. This patch is meant for all players and especially people running unmodified (Vanilla) Freelancer servers.
Features:
* 3D Sound has been Disabled (Which fixes many sound problems for most people) * Advanced Graphics * Advanced Error Logging (Which makes troubleshooting problems easier) * Updated/Fixed freelancer.ini file * Updated video hardware support * Includes over 2000 code fixes from the Freelancer SDK v1.3b * Includes the battleship mismatched loadout crash fix (New!!) * Includes Freelancer Web Launcher v3.1.1.0 (see weblaunch.txt) (New!!) * The installer adds several new links to the Freelancer Web Links folder in your Start Menu (New!!)
Note: known issues:
1. There are errors in the ini files! Yes.. this version of the patch is based on the 1.3 S.D.K. 2. Battleship stations caused the client to crash if the client and server's loadouts_special.ini file were different. **Fixed March 13, 2007** 3. The installer can only apply the perfoptions.ini changes on the active user, so if there are multiple windows users who play the game they will need to run the install again for each. 4. You may need to reinstall the drivers for your video card, download newer ones, and/or reinstall the latest version of DirectX if your Video Card is not working properly. 5. GeForce 6600 GT owners: your card seems to have some problems with Freelancer. Make sure you are using updated drivers. 6. A very few people will experience severe problems if 3D Sound is disabled. If you are one of them, you can easily re-enable it in the game options.
If the game ever crashes and you get one of those famous error reports you should send it in because Microsoft does check these out and updates their F.A.Q. from time to time.
