OK just discovered Freelancer so downloaded the MOD and started to play SP however when I start a new game I get to level 38 which is great , however I start with a ship that has a ADMIN shield installed which looks like it cannot be destroyed , and if I sell it is worth over 3m

So I can just purchase anything from the start , which ruined the game - is there a way to start without that shield - or start like you do in vanilla ?

Thanks

This. If you want to play single player, uninstall Discovery and play through the vanilla storyline. I highly recommend it--it's fun stuff.

Then install the Discovery mod and hop on the server for more fun.

It is indeed for multiplayer. That means, it would be much more funny for you, if you discover the mod in multiplayer.

Singleplayer is nice. I have wasted more than 100 hours on it I think. Just start on the server. Even if you are an SP-Ace, you would have to learn many new things, when you go into space the first time.

So, don't be shy and join today! You are welcome!

You could set up your own lan server and play as if it were SP, without the admin shield and such.
If you want a hand in doing that, throw me a PM, otherwise enjoy the Campaign.

Also, I have found this:


' Wrote:Type "help" without a forward slash in single player.

Never tried it myself, as said above: Multiplayer modus is more funny.

Welcome to Freelancer!

Playing through SP will get you up to speed with the background of the game, and reading up on the Wiki/forum/flying online will help you find out about what has happened in the 20 years since the Campaign.

Have fun, hope you enjoy RPing.
