It's not invalid XML, but it is an invalid unsigned number. Recall that hex numbers have one subtracted, so the conversion to 0 produces a value of -1, which is white.

I think it might be a bug. I take it you don't have "Mission 11: Osiris, Texas"? That tells me to meet Juni and King in space. You might have to replay from the previous save to get it.

Simple solution: reinstall. To discover what went wrong: install to a different directory, then compare the old and new to see what's different.

Did you look at the readme? "This is a command-line utility..." ... "Open up the command prompt..." (emphasis mine).

Works fine for me and if it was a problem I'm pretty sure I would have heard about it before now.

The download worked for me, but depending on your download software it may have an
archived_ prefix or be in the archived subdirectory.

Attached is a program to patch
Freelancer.exe to do system_string + system_name + ", "; you'll also have to change the resource string to remove the leading space and comma.

Quote: Thanks, adoxa. I think you're the creator of Jason's Patch, am I right? That's right. Quote: I will think if I change this line (Transporte Grande) and abbreviate it or not. I assume these descriptions are in nameresources.dll, under SHIP NAMEs section, 237001-237058. Bear in mind that will change the name of the ship itself (i.e. everywhere). The hook would abbreviate just the comm name, but it's not likely to happen. Quote: Besides, I assume that there is no a fast solution like change in hexa in freelancer.exe the 23 for 35 to accomodate this lines better. Nope, it's an array within a structure, so there's stuff after it (still possible, but definitely not feasible). Quote: I can change the "Waterloo Station" for "Estación Waterloo" (this is how is better seen in Spanish), but I can not change XXX Base for "Base XXX". This is in two parts: patch freelancer.exe at E85C3, FC->DC & E85DB, DC->FC; and modify string 1378 in resources.dll, placing the space at the end.

a) I'm afraid that's a hard limit (this counts as a player name, which is restricted to 23 characters). I could add a hook to use an abbreviated ship name, but it hardly seems worth it. Alternatively, edit strings 16154 & 16156 in
EXE\resources.dll (group 1010 in Resource Hacker) and put %s0 last (thus truncating the ship name, or even just leave it out).b) Every commodity has a base value, so I think what may be happening is you're purchasing below that value, but it uses the base value to calculate your worth, so that gives you enough for the next level. Internal mission numbers changed with the official patch (from Mission 3 I think), which prevents leveling up if you saved with one version and loaded with the other.

I think you have two options: modify the converter, treating an absent
trim as a trim of 0; or modify mpa2wav to write that empty trim. The former is the better choice.

Edit
DATA\MISSIONS\M01A\m01a.ini (install JFLP or use TINI to unpack it), find the second tm_releaseP1 (around line 1528), a couple lines down you'll see Cnd_Timer = 3, change that to 5 (or whatever). I think that's all you need, but if not, try changing the similar line a few lines back (below rh_cruiser_impact_cam).

It is read (
nickname is the only value) and stored (even if it doesn't exist) and there are multiple references to the storage, but that's as far as I went.
