Elite / Frontier Hello to all

[Sir.Tj]

Hi, just registered and thought I'd say hello.

I have been playing the elite series of games on and off for years though Amigas (which I still own a few off) to the brilliant GL versions, and have always loved playing them.

After reading through a couple of past threads I have wondered about something.

I assume as the source code for Frontier & FFE has never been released by Frontier Developments, the option for people to create new missions like the Thargoid series in FFE is not a option. it would be nice to be able to insert something new into the games.

Sorry if this subject has been broached before.

P.S haven't mentioned anything about release dates

IIRC the Frontier games were written in assembler so there was never any source code to begin with.

it would be nice to be able to insert something new into the games.

Well, people do it though it requires hacking the code.

Cheers for the welcome, I'd like to become a active member (God help you all!)

Thanks for the head up on the coding of the games, never realised that people had already hacked the games. I'll have to have a look around the net and see whats out there.

Cheers again
