Freeworlds: Tides of War is a fan built Star Wars total conversion mod for Digital Anvil's Freelancer game that was released several years ago. When fans began to make mods for Freelancer, one of the many things people were keen on seeing was a Freelancer mod based on the Star Wars universe developed by George Lucas. Freeworlds and Tides of War were the answer to this outcry. The development team of both mods have now joined forces to create an epic new Star Wars TC, Freeworlds: Tides of War.
The Freeworlds: Tides of War demonstration package.
Welcome to the Freeworlds: Tides of War demo! In this demonstration package you will be able to fly over 100 vessels, see firsthand the improvements to the Freelancer graphics engine, engage in combat with the non-playable characters (NPCs) and engage in player versus player (PvP) combat with other players. This demo does not contain full gameplay functionality that will be in the final release such as dockable capital ships, dynamic economy, player influence system or any of the final canon star systems.
In the demo, there are two systems where all of your interaction will take place: the combat prototype system and the capital prototype system.

Where i can get f*cking money?!
Please read the ReadMe that's available through the launcher. It explains everything.
Played 8 hours so far. Fantastic result (for a demo) and I look forward to the real thing.
Great to hear :) We have a great patch coming out fixing a number of concerns with the demo release thus far.
Mod was beautiful. Congratulations. However, I found two problems.
1. Unable to establish a LAN server. Freelancer Server 1.0 with version 2.0. (Version 1.0 when I solved the problem)
2. Capital ships do not have a problem with the LAN server. However, the purchase of small ships in the server disconnet say he cheats.
(The trick was done noticed that multiplayer file)
1. There's no server.exe for the mod. The demo only comes with the client program. You must have activated the vanilla freelancer flserver.exe (that's why it has different version numbers).
2. If you did switch the player number and tried to load your own server, the reason your getting disconnects is that it doesn't contain the numerous hacks we've put into the flserver.exe. So, I can't help you there.
crash after crash here. :\
Do you run XP?
This probably sounds like a moronic bloody question and Yeah, I am genuinely this thick, but... to install this, do I just need to install Freelancer and then run the tow_demo.exe?
Furthermore, is there a free-play mode in the Demo that lets players just pick any ship they wanna try and muck about with it?
Aaaah, got it installed but there are problems. Firt off, I HAVE to run it in safe mode because the mod itself won't recognise my Graphics card, a problem that Freelancer also has. Freelancer still allowed me to play with decent graphics, however (wierd, but true) while this mod simply refuses to start up on that basis. Is there anyway around this?
Also, I can't connect to the server. No idea why, it just says I can't, that it may be down to internet connection problems or the server going offline as I connect, but I've tried multiple times now to no avail.
Oh, and if it helps my basic specs are, I think.... an intel i7 Quad-core 2.93Ghz processor, 6GB of RAM, and a 4GB AMD Radeon HD6990 graphics card.
Go to our forums and post your problem, we can go through it there: Freeworldstidesofwar.com
Holy! Where did this come from! I love your video. Now let´s check out your game! Wow, wow, wow!!! Guys!!!!
We've been around for four years ;) But definitely check out the mod. You'll need Freelancer installed before you can play, though.
Will I still be able to play the original Freelancer after installing this?
Yes
i always get url not found error from gamefront
Hrm. Works fine here. I'm a bit unsure why it's not working for you.

Same problem.
Edit: Never mind, try picking one of the other mirrors. That fixed it for me at least.
