This is version 9 of the updated dsace.dll for testing. You do not need to install it to play on the server. This is for testing and it still has some bugs.
YOU WILL BE KICKED BY THE SERVER IF YOU ARE USING AN OLDER TEST VERSION. YOU MUST UPGRADE TO THIS ONE IF YOU ARE USING THE OLDER TEST VERSION.
Unzip it from inside your Freelancer directory so that the files are placed into the DATA\INTERFACE directory and the EXE directory. Alternatively move the files into place by hand.
Write better installation instructions and post them in this thread. Screenshots should be included.
Changes in version 9:
Alt-enter toggles between full screen and windowed modes.
The reliability issues related to changing the hud, zoom and other new commands appears to be fixed. In addition if the chat window is open, new key bindings are ignored in the same way as standard freelancer commands are.
Minor changes to the power plant charging logic. This should have no effect but I mention it here in case it does.
Changed font size for monitor aspects greater than or equal to 16/10. This might fix people's font issues.
Known faults:
The options->controls->multiplayer screen is a bit messed up - this is cosmetic and won't be fixed until 4.86.
Some people report the new/departing player text as being too big. I will take a look at it at some point.
Nothing new at the moment - report older ones if I've missed them.

I don't know whether is just me....but some text is just too small ( like weapons ) and some( like the chat text, new player,..) is just too big, covering the whole screen.
I don't know much about programming and such things, but isn't it possible that the text size would be the same as using the -dx command?
This looks fine to me, are you sure this is the right link? Did you use the -dx or -dHxW arguments to start the game with the new dll? What screen size are you using?

I don't know, if this problem only exist at my PC, but alt+tab to switch to the forum doesn't really work.
Shortly I see the windows task bar, but then I get a black screen. Alt+Tabbing back to the game also don't work, I get the sound, but still the black screen.

If you compare the two screenshots, you can see, or at least I can see that by using the new dll the text size is twice as much bigger as it was without it. Like as I have seen other people uploading their FL screenshots in other topics, I guess some people are just used to it. But when Im having such big text on a big monitor it looks just ugly to be honest.
Yes Im using the -dx and my resolution is 1920x1080
Not tested with this latest dll yet, but been meaning to QQ about two issues I've been having:
Presumably a bug with the dll is causing power plant to occasionally, seemingly randomly not drain when SNACing (and probably when doing other stuff too), leading to the power plant displaying as full while it is empty. Fixes itself once the power plant's recharged, but still annoying. Your power plant changes might've fixed it now though, no clue
After alt tabbing, FL sound will occasionally be extremely distorted for a few moments. I have no idea if this is the dll's fault or FL's fault, though.
