The 10th and final chapter of the famous Crossfire Mod.
Stunning graphics, a large universe and 45 new singleplayer missions are waiting to be explored.
Prepare for the Last Stand!
Mankinds darkest hour...
We thought that the Coalition War was the biggest threat in the Human history, until we encountered an illusive alien species called the Nomads.
That moment changed everything.
Renegades and Freelancers became our biggest hope in an enduring fight for our existence.
The Houses of Sirius spread into the far regions of known space and encounted a threat bigger than the Coalition, bigger than the Nomads and bigger than the Nomads masters.
The fires of war shine through the distant, cold darkness in the heart of our galaxy.
Mankinds darkest hour... are you prepared for the Last Stand?
Does this require Freelancer? (Stupid question I know but still.)
Yes... and yes.
does this "include" Freelancer already in it, if not then where can i get it cause i searched the site and ll i can find are modes
This is a site for mods, not pirated games.
myabandonware.com has Freelancer.
I HAD TO FORMAT AND STILL HAVE THE ORIGINAL FREELANCER GAME 1.1 ON DISK, WHAT PATCH DO I NEED BEFORE ITS COMPATIBLE WITH CROSSFIRE2?
Mod need to be installed via mod installer (it will be installed into Freelancer mod manager (FLMM) mods folder) and then activated in FLMM (this will overwrite vanilla FL). If you will not do both steps in given order, you will still have only vanilla FL.
Once you unpack downloaded mod package, there is link to swat-portal FAQ with detailed instructions.
1. your caps is on
2. why the format?
3. no patch is required, it will work with any version of the game (eventhough it is higly adviced to use a clean installation -> v1.0)
4. installation instructions can be found as link inside the zip, once during the installation process, in the FLMM description window and inside the mods readme file.
Does it matter which version of Freelancer Mod Manager we use to install Crossfire? (i.e. FMM 1.31 or 1.5)
1.31 is required as it the last version which reliably handle the required installation scripts
This may sound silly, but I haven't played Freelancer since 2005 or 2006 and have never modded anything before.
If I install your mod package will I be able to continue my old saved game or is this essentially a whole other game and I should finish the original freelancer before I proceed?
you can continue your old SP game
Awesome update!!! Thanks! :)
Hi, I'm new here.
2.0 is just an update and includes all content from previous versions or it's separately mod?
it contains everything from previous versions
Wat version of Windows Will at work with ? Will it work with Windows *10
Thanks
All windows versions from xp to win10 will work.
hello!
I have launched crossfire 2.0 but i'm still starting from the original game campaign (freeport7 explosion, Juni e.t.c) should it be that way, or it should start with a new story ?
thanx
The new story starts right after mission 13 of the original campaign (its an extension to the original storyline).
can you create lan or internet server with this?,i was wondering since it would grow as a huge multiplayer and single player mod community,that would be great as there will be servers from most regions and wont have lag or ping issues
more servers would only devide the community
naa i dont think so,it would make it like discovery servers *sorry for mentioning other mods but* at least enable the lan only if you guys can,that would be amazing for ship testers since some account managers programs and such only works for servers only,and i dont think it will devide community,it will even help,if you can only think about it,not everyone can play on 1 server only since some will have lag issues and such in other regions,so if you are kind of to release the server files allot of peoples would be aprishiated
To my experience from the the past 13 years FL all mods which had regional servers (with the exception of disco) vanished. We are more interested to focus the community on one server where the players can play together and interact with each other.
Next to that there is a technical aspect: many Crossfire unique features require a synchronization of server and clients. Thats not possible in LAN plan or if there are multiple servers. Multiple servers would probably even cause risks for the stability of our main server. Finding a solution for such problems definitely is not easy and I am simply not sure if its even worth the work considering how small the whole FL community meanwhile is. Its not even clear if more than a handful of players would benefit from it while alot more players would benefit if we focus our work on the mod and the main server.
SWAT_OP-R8R thank you so much for your tireless hard work to bring production quality content to this now ancient yet excellent game.
Have been through the evolutions of TNG, Discovery, & now the best, most complete of them all: Crossfire 2.0.
Appreciation & gratitude abound from myself to you and your team's hard work.
Cheers
Im glad you like it.
I would pay for it :)
Man.. even after all this time.. Freelancer still Rocks...
Seems to me this download misses some files
i tried to instal it but the game wont start it just stops after the online Multiplayer update.
Brand new Freelancer install
clean PC
And the above download should work but it does not!!!
help is much appreciated
Im sure that all files are there. Try to select a different shader option.
Before activating Crossfire in modmanager i turned everything to standard and basic and low settings.
And its still not working
It updates
it says Crossfire is running
but 5 seconds after it says Crosfire has stopped working and if i want to find a solution online??
i love this game but i can imagine why you dont have as much people on the server as Discovery...
i really tried 10+ times on a Clean Windows
by the way i do not anyware see SHADER settings!!!!
the shader settings are directly on the launcher
and please dont compare us with discovery
fact is that this is mod by far more complex than discovery and fact is also that every user has a different hardware and software configuration
the mod is perfectly working but most likely your graphic card cant deal with the default shader option... thats why we a good amount of alternative shader options

Finally it works thanks for the info and suggestions.
final questions
Can i turn al the intro bloatware OFF?
Atm i have to ESC my way trough half a dozen intro movies
And
WTH does A Shader do ???
At the mom i have it on No selection
you can delete or rename the wmv files in the movies directory
that would disable the vids
shaders have multiple functions... they basically improve the look of the game (quality) or change the look to something different (different saturations or color settings)
While Freelancer is a DX8 game, the shaders add DX9 and DX10 render features via post processing.
is posible to play freelancer crossfire in single player i mean with no internet just play the story???
yes, thats possible
how can i play crossfire with original trent model (from original Freelancer) in singleplayer?
You can select the character appearance during the mod activation.
How much of the mods improvements appear in the Vanilla SP? Like graphics, AI, etc.
alot
I have a problem with the activation of Crossfire. When activation runs (with FMM
v1.3 it gives an error line i cant post here
Could anybody help me?
errors in FLMM indicate that there is no clean FL installation or write protected FL directoy
1st time since a long time ago i am excited again. I love this game and u guys made an unofficial sequel for it. To see that u guys are still supporting your mod in 2016 fills my heart with happyness. I never played the mod before and the download is about to be done. I am so excited to discover the Freelancer universe once again . YOU GUYS ARE EPIC !!!
I keep trying to download, and it says I don't have permission halfway through. Any idea why?
actually everything should work
Yeah I've weird things with this. I think I got it to fully download, though now I'm having different problems. Not really sure you can help. I'm running Freelancer inside a Wineskin on a mac and when I try to install Crossfire, the wrapper eats up my CPU at the step after deciding where to install the files (meaning the mods folder). Pretty sure this is just a problem with Crossover and Wine in general rather than with Crossfire, but if anyone else happens to have the same problem, I'd love to hear.
Ive no experience with mac... so... dunno
Run the exe file in SILENT MODE using the parameter /SILENT. Worked fine for me.
Just to clarify. :-)
"Run command" in Freelancer bottle: "PathtoSetupFile/Setup.exe" /SILENT
Will install the MOD files into the FLMM share - so that you can activate it afterwards. Nevertheless, I got fine graphics now, but sound's not working properly.
