I would argue that many games within the FPS genre and a few other popular genres are all the same.. nothing really unique distinguishing one from another.

As title says, since I'm a cheap bastard, I've put it off for awhile. After space on my current drives got low, I convinced myself it was a good idea to get an SSD. After reading a few forums for installation tips, the installation went very smooth. After the first reboot to desktop, I was...

Thanks to everyone for the advice! I've decided to wait till the 660's are released then visit the issue again. Hopefully, I'll be able to have a larger budget. If not, the price will only be less. As I implied before... while I enjoy gaming immensely, I rarely get the opportunity to do so...

I've been out of the computer hardware "game" for awhile and in dire need of advice... I have a i7-930 with a GTX 260 video card. I was thinking of upgrading to a GTX 560 Ti. Unfortunately, where I live money doesn't grow on trees, therefore I need to keep this expenditure <250USD (closer...

Lately, I've been getting the urge to play a turn-based war game similar to Panzer General or People Tactics. Since time and money is limited, can anyone recommend a good one? I don't particularly care which time frame it is in--Civil War, WWI, WWII it all makes no difference to me. I've...

Thanks for all of the replies folks. We ended up going with the following dedicated server from ServerLoft: * Intel Xeon X3440 Quad-core Lynnfield 2.53GHz 8MB L3 Cache * RAM 4gb DDR3 * Hard Drive 500gb(x2) SATA2 RAID 1 * Uplink Port Speed 100mbps * Bandwidth 5000gb *...

Background My team and I are developers who create mods for Freelancer (yes there is still a large active community of Freelancer pilots. ;)). We are currently renting a dedicated server which hosts our multi-player server and our DevTeam SVN. Everything was fine and dandy till 3 days ago...

Ahh, thanks for pointing that out. I was unaware our Quickfix link is dead. I'll ask one of the staff to host it on our resources instead of relying on hosts elsewhere. :) In regards to the Hardware Update, you are correct. It is included with the Quickfix patch. That is the reason the...

Sorry to hear that you had difficulty installing the mod. TBH, I really don't know what to say... I mean thousands of players have successfully installed the mod and have characters on the server. I wish there was an easier way to implement the mod, however Microsoft refused to give us any...

Is there an option other than DD?

Excellent, if you see me on the server, let me know you're from [H] forums.

Cool thanks, I REALLY appreciate your votes, it means a lot for you to take the time to do this for me. Once you guys get on the Forums pm me. I go by the alias "Forsaken" I'll send you guys the widescreen fix currently under test by the DevTeam and answer any questions or discuss any...

Freelancer (mods are really nice and have added a lot but Freelancer 2 would be sweet) Privateer Wing Commander Tie Fighter X-Com

With the new version of the mod that is almost out... we've introduced a widescreen fix which is really easy to for users to set their resolution.

Thanks guys. I really appreciate the support. You can pick up FL on Amazon... I haven't checked the price tho. The last time I was at Target, they had several copies for like 10 bucks a piece.

Do you guys remember a game called "Freelancer"? It is a Chris Roberts game that is a successor to Elite and Privateer. Excellent game, all space genre people need to give it a shot. Anyways, several years ago, my friends and I began working on a little mod for Freelancer to use on a clan...

I have Windows XP on my pc. Everything was running peachy till I got a little malware on my pc. I tried using SpybotS&D and Adaware but it didn't work. I got this hair brained idea to attempt it in safe mode. So I opened up msconfig and enabled /safeboot rather than rebooting and pressing F8...

My EVGA 8800GTX just died this weekend. It lasted little over 2 years. I just got the RMA approved. Hopefully they can resolve this. I bought it for 600 bucks brand new. :(

If you like Freelancer, check this mod out. http://www.moddb.com/mods/shattered-worlds They basically overhauled the entire game, fixed multiplayer balance issues, added loads of new content, new FX and improved the graphics. Due to the game being an older game, we need new blood. Come join...

Another Freelancer vote here. The Shattered Worlds::War-Torn mod is the best Freelancer mod imho, but I'd be nice to have a sequel utilizing the latest technologies. Wing Commander X-Wing/Tie Fighter Baldurs Gate Vampires

I got it sorted, thanks for the reply!

Does anyone know of an app that is capable of searching files in a folder for a particular string then replacing them with a replacement string. I have folder with approximately 1500 ini files in it. In each file there are approximately 1 to2000+ "..\DATA\" entries which I want to be...

I had the exact thing happen. I could never find Strelok to fight him. :rolleyes: It has gotta be a bug. Here is what I done to end the game. Spoiler: When on the roof top, climb down ladder. There is an anomoly there that shocks you if you try to go through it. Shoot it with your...

Spore was fun while it lasted. I think it was worth the money spent entertainment wise. After 2 weeks of playing it got old and repetive. It was still pretty fun while I was interested.

I bought this game several weeks ago, and have yet to play it because it quite simply will not run. I tried everything suggested in the support forums. No dice. It is really frustrating, it looks like a game I'd love to play... there goes more money wasted. :rolleyes:

Where can you download the Tactical Realism mod? It sounds really good.

I enjoyed the heck out of Crysis. I really didnt care much for the whole "alien" theme at last part of the game. I really love the multiplayer. But it seems there are a bunch of hacks. But when you get on a server where noone is hacking, it is a ton of fun.

I loved Freespace2. I hate the fact that the genre is nearly dead. All of my best memories when I was younger were spent playing Wing Commander, Privateer and other space genre games. Right now my favorite time is spend playing Freelancer. Actually some friends and I made a mod for it...

I would love to play Mass Effect. I bought it when it first came out and have never been able to get it to work. It goes to the splash screen and hardlocks my pc up. I've tried the latest patch... still refuses to work. :( E6600 Oc'd to 3.2, 2GB Corsair Dominator, EVGA 8800GTX. XP...

Freelancer, I LOVE this game. Its a shame this genre has died somewhat. I remember as a kid playing Elite, the Wing Commander series, Privateer and TIE fighter. Unlike EVE, the twitch skill required in Freelancer makes the game much more enjoyable, and if you get into a good server that does...

About 2 years ago some friends and I decided to make a mod for Freelancer. We've managed to make alot of advancements taking the engine to its limits, improving graphics, adding lots of content and overhauling most of the game (balance improvements mostly). For those of you who have a copy...
