The FFED3D Thread

haven't read your suggestions until now, alien
will pick it up, but i guess FFED3D hasn't got so many models and listing on elite-games.ru changes sometimes, links of older versions have and i guess will also be in future, been deleted or moved, which makes it hard to keep the original links to the downloads in a actual state. on the other hand i can link it to ssc files repositorial.

i guess, yes the opening page will be edited like you mentioned.:)
 
please help

okay, i have found savegames. but what ever i do, i'm dead. i not need a laser, i'm dead. i'm not need a shild, i'm dead. when i see a enemy -> yes, i'm dead. 15 shilds, i'm dead again. sorry but i'm not the hard core space pilot. give it a cheat? or a trainer, or a undestroyable ship?

why ?
ok here's a unaltered one
BONGLEE._12
this works only for the original english version of FFE i guess.
if you need a hacked one tell me, i would have to make one.

i guess you will find some on elite-games.ru to, i downloadet once some (but lost it) :(


savegames of original FFE and FFED3D are the same,
personally i stick all into the same folder so i can play them with any of the FFE fellowers (JJFFE, GLFFE, FFED3D)

you might want to alter one yourself?
use FFE savegame editor

you need quick a super ship? maybe just to get out of a deadend?
use Buffet2

FFED3D f.a.q
forums.frontier.co.uk
www.spacesimcentral.com

mostly the same, but i haven't checked them since i don't know ;)
because pioneer spacesim using all of my time and attention by now.
you can discuss about pioneer here spacesimcentral.com/pioneer

further, a single FFED3D board
www.spacesimcentral.com

but really tell me what was the reason for you request, i'm very curious you must know.

don't edit old posts, that is confusing me (an hour or so is ok i need myself sometimes longer to get all the infos together).

anyway here you find all the missing stuff and old goodies for FFE also anisos mod for jjffe http://www.elite-games.ru/elite3/files.shtml

try also hoopers page he's got some starting ships for FFE (the same as on elite-games, just to give credits to the right person)
http://www.hooplatec.com/encounters/index.htm

and yes FFE is sometimes very hard, but fortunately you can try and try and try and try..........

please read the f.a.q it's worth the time, you find there most of the above links to, and also a link to hoopers starting
guide, which makes you rich in one month, with little danger.

When your proximilty alarm chimes, point your ship so that the enemy is just on screen in the far left or right side. Set your engines high enough that they will keep accellerating. The enemy will whizz by you and probably miss with most, if not all, shots. The first enemy run is the most dangerous, after that it is more of a dogfight, and you will not get his that hard as long as you keep on the move.

When you are close to the enemy, try to accellerate alongside him and then show and turn. You can do a lot of damage here, as you will be close enough that all your shots will count. When the enemy gets close to turning at you, accelerate off again and repeat.

When you get the hang of enemy behaviour and firing arcs it is easy to take any sort of ship on.
 
thank you yery much. very good. slowly i learn fight... again. :cool:

can i see the mission system coordinats after taking a mission? i can remember, by elite 2 you must note it bevore.
another thing. how can i lock a planet (like Inena 7a) into the auto pilot? i click on it in the starmap, but the autopilot dont take it.

minor version update

FFED3D (1.12b++)(26.03.2010)

you might have recognized it allready, i didn't, so i post that here, also they cleaned up their download section and it's now very neat arranged so you find everything needet for the game in the same place, good job.

Elite-Games.ru - FFED3D files

have you recognized how many times buffet2 was dowloadet allready?
235 times, that means at least 200 people that play JJFFE or any of the ports of it (outside russia at least).
not bad, imho, no masses, but not bad.

select a target in system map, press "T", then click on the desired target, works that way for any objects (stars, planets, ships, or starports, you will have to zoom close enough to make the port apearing). or for the lazy ones, buy the navigation aid, click on the newly appearing symbol for it in your HUD, and you got a list of all the starports in the system, other objects you still have to select in the above described way.

but, please be kind take your time and read Jades or Hoopers various guides to FFE, they cover all what you have to know about the controls and even more.

if you don't know where to find hoopers or jades site, refer to my f.a.q. i did especially for you newbe's you find it here (check aliens thread list) or on space sim central.
