I just started playing Freelancer again about a week ago and just joined the 24/7 USA RP server(hope this is the right forum) and I wanted to say thanks to all who have been so nice and helped out. I am truly addicted to playing now.
Everyone has been really helpful towards new players and I plan on recruiting some more people to play.
I will be donating to the server but also wanted to extend my services if needed. I am a indie game developer with skills from Web to 3d. PHP/Javascript/Ajax/CSS/.NET/Ruby/Lua/ ect.... Milkshape/Max/ect.. Torque/Unreal/Unity/ ect...
If anyone needs my help, building ships, writing, website, ect.. just let me know.
Once again thanks for a great server. Working on discovering some good trade routes to expand the freighter business, IDs are Halls and Latius so see you in game. (Pirates: I am poor)
I had not till now but just looked it up and wow, i was wondering if there was something like that out there.
I was wanting to build a interactive map via a webpage that would start out as a universal map then like in the game zoom into each system and place current player locations. It would be tied to a MySQL DB so that it dynamically could be edited and things added to it. Like faction control and such.
It would also record ship movement throughout the day and real faction lines could be drawn along with real trade lanes. Like paths really taken.
I also wanted to build a facebook type area for the site that would be for factions to run their members, faction loot, access, promoting, ect...
With FLHook I am wondering if a script could be made to actually have "ghost" accounts for factions that would hold faction loot and bases.
This may have already have been done. Just some silly ideas rolling around.
