The Genesis mod is an addon mod for Freelancer by Digital Anvil/Microsoft that works in Multiplayer, putting you into the game just after the original campaign has finished. Version 1.3 incorporates all the fixes from the previous versions
CHANGELOG 1.3 MP
- Firefly freighter reduced in size by 25%, was a bit on the porky side
- Encounters reduced mod wide as there were simply too many of them
- Commercial Armor now displaying stats correctly
- Ter Tholen infocard updated in Tortuga
- Cerberus Battleship infocard added
- Simian Cruiser infocard updated
- Resized all the Pachyderm 500 models so they are a 25% smaller, should make docking a lot easier. Still a pain at Freeport 9 but way better than before
- Fixed Nomad Gunboat Shield on the flyable version
- New Nomad ships and custom turrrets added with special FX
- New flyable Nomad ships added
- Scanning for Stolen Art by NPC's now works as it should
- Various other under the bonnet/hood fixes
- IPv6 issue fixed for multiplayer connections
One of the key improvements is connectivity to the multiplayer server running Genesis. On later copies of windows (7, 8, 10) IPv6 is a major issue with older games, no different with Freelancer. This has been fixed with the Genesis mod so hopefully, judging from my in game team of testers, we've not had any issues with people joining the server. The new mod will be uploaded very shortly for those interested. Look forward to seeing you on the server.
All instructions on how to add the mod are in the included README file in the download.
