well, it should be possible (though it would likely be adoxa's console or another sp hack plugin rather than flhook). problem is, that with our modern cloak the npc's scanners still detect you. as sometimes npc's scan you or hail you in any other way you are not entirely irrecognizable even to other players. likely the game is used to see your starship and i think this would be a problem to work around this. on the other hand, if our gentlemen from the additional programming section do not work around it, it would be senseless to cloak yourself in an ambience, where every starship and base around (as there cannot be players around) can actually detect you. the visual effect and disappearance of the own ship onscreen is possible, im convinced of that.

In the same way as a kplol you'll be invisible on loading game & leaving planets/bases, but not limited by timers and be just free from heavy threaded code.

Set secondary control to Tractor Beam(All Items) to some valid char along with Ctrl (Ctrl+C, Ctrl+U etc). Get a ship with a cloak_fighter onboard. True SP.

Earlier made a mistake and was activating left light like it was a blinker in cars, and that's a just for fun idea lol.

Happy New Year All,
When StarLancer was out, I seem to remember cloaks. So the fact that FreeLancer is a continuation of that story, the entire Sirius systems should know of cloaks. Liberty had experimented with the technology.
I support cloaking technology, but also believe it has limitations and weaknesses. For example, the Klingon or Romulan ships can't fire while cloaked. Also, there exist ways to detect cloaked ships.
Anyway, I have heard Adoxa specifically say he won't work on it. His comment in this article does make me wonder about the FreeLancer coding. Does the games support it? Or is it just cut-scene gibberish to bolster a weak storyline? If the game does not support cloaking is some type of scanner interference possible?
My approach to playing FreeLancer is essentially purist, in that I see the way ships progress through the game play. Start with weak ships and work your way up. That requires a better degree of skill. This is why even in my own little mod I use to play, I just teak a few things that don't make much sense. My initial example is that I give Trent a fully equipped Starflier. I keep the games locks on gates and jump holes, but they are visible on the map. My thinking is why have a guy fight for you and disadvantage them from the start. Obviously a good pilot can make due, but it makes no sense. Imagine flying an F-16 with just machine guns. Another thing I do is place the entire universe in the map. Here on earth, I can buy a map to anywhere long before I go there. An the very best argument is that Trent has flown Bretonia and why should he go exploring?
Anyway, cloaks don't exist so I make do with skill, just as if my cloak were damaged. But it is a curiosity.

Again, Happy New Year,
