The mods have a plot?

[Branco]

Hello!

Im new in this parts, and I dont know the best way to put my questions so Im asking here...
I played the Freelancer original game to the end and thougt that was it but a friend of mine told me about the link "Lancers REACTOR" and for what I understanded this is a link for download upgrades or something like that.
So I tried to download one mod of many that are here after I downloaded the Freelancer mod manager an the I aplied both and tried to play the game, I went directly to level 38 but the game doesnt have any history, I flyed in all the sistem and the only thing that I did was to acept normal missions to get some cash and thats all.

The mod that I downloaded was Discovery Mod v4.82

So my question is...

All the mods are like this one ?
Doesnt have any history like the original game?
Doesnt have caracters like Junko Zane(Juni) or something like that to gide us?

I would be thankful if someone could help me out it this questions

This mod is written by players, day by day. Other mods do similar things, but not as well as this one.

The 'story' in this mod isn't presented with as much special effects and famous voice-overs, but it is there.

The story needs only to be 'discovered.'

But i dont understand very much of mods or how how to play online.

what do i have to do?

I have the freelancer original game, th freelancer mod manager that I downloaded form lancer reactor and the mod discovery mod v4.82.

Is this ok or to i need anything else?

Ok, make sure you have the mod 'activated' in freelancer mod manager (select the 4.82 mod then click activate mod.) then close FLMM.

then start FL, on the main menu select multiplayer, select internet, then you get a list of servers. The servers highlighted in blue are the ones that are running the mod you have activated, double click to join.

And make sure you are ONLY running the Discovery mod. If you use any other mods on Discovery you will most likely get banned.

here is the thing,
Most mods do have plots, but they are player created. People simply write about characters, events and factions. People Role play certain characters ( like Trent and Juni) and can also join factions. Factions can include anything from pirate guilds to mining and trading clans. Every faction does different stuff and interacts with other factions and player created characters. Thus creating a world that is completely unique to the mod.

Does that help explain stuff???
