Discovery 4.78 Third Patch

[Igiss]

Due to swarm missile bug just found by Daedalus and Nesa, I had to release a new 4.78 patch. It's not even a patch, I've just modified one line in the only ini file included into the 1st patch and uploaded the updated version of complete 4.78 and the previous patch.

This time you needn't download anything. Go to your Freelancer game folder, browse to \DATA\Equipment\, find the file called weapon_equip.ini. Open this file in notepad or whatever you use for basic text editing, scroll to the very bottom of the file. There you should see the very last section titled

[Gun]
nickname = dsy_swarm01

Inside of this section find and remove the line

hp_gun_type = hp_gun_special_1

If you don't want to edit, these are download links:

http://www.discoverygc.com/files/weapon_equip.zip - the needed ini file alone, just download, unzip and overwrite weapon_equip.ini in your Freelancer game folder, located in \DATA\Equipment\.

http://www.discoverygc.com/files/Discove....zip.flmod - cumulative patch.

http://www.discoverygc.com/files/Discovery478.zip.flmod - complete version with all patches.

I recommend to edit file manually or download the weapon_equip.zip.

If you do the editting method, you also need to modify the one in the FLMM mod directory, correct?

Not essential, but you may if you don't want to reedit the file when you activate Discovery next time.

I found a bug.... When you launch in the RH Bomber, after rebuying it, it kicks you off and says, "possible cheating detected" I think....

But I do know that it kicks you off the server when trying to launch the new RH Bomber.

Did you fix this?

I haven't tried yet today... I'll update in a moment when I do.

EDIT: Problem still exists.

EDIT 2: Aren't BS Flak Turrets supposed to "seek"? Cause they aren't doing that it seems.

Virus, the server will kick *ME* off if i try to rebuy the Defender. I don't think this is a thing we can fix. Sell your RH Bomber for a smaller ship or something ELSE, dock with another planet, station or whatever

Then go back and rebuy it. That's the only known workaround I know

Seeing that I'm going to be installing the game fresh with no mods installed yet, I'll want to install the Discovery478.zip.flmod, correct?

Yes, as long as you have downloaded in the last 6 hours or so and have freelancer mod manager 1.31 installed. Enjoy!

This is not Discovery-specific, deactivate the mod, launch the server and try to do the same (rebuy the same ship) in 1.0 Freelancer. Result will be exactly the same - kick, cheating detected.

It sometimes helps to sell your shield before you rebuy, and anything else you might end up with multiples of, e.g. forward guns.
