Modding and computing asisstance

I have hacked JJFFE via advice by Geo Hooper. I find this very interesting, and was overwhelmed by Buffet. Where exactly could I find out about hacking, modding etc? Please bear in mind I am an 66 year old moron. Thanks a million!!:D

Jasiks,
Do you have any specifics in terms of what your trying to do?
(ie: I want to hack it so that I can _________ )

Hacking etc

Hi Deej, Thanks for your time. I want to learn to hack not for any nefarious purpose. What I want to do is alter games I own, and learn more about computing and modding in general. It's difficult to know where to start, if you could suggest any publications and where I can get advice I would be very grateful. Thanks a million!!:D

fixed this problem in win 7 64, it is a bit long winded but was worth it in the end,

1)Go to to device manager
2) open up keyboards
3) keyboards right click on the Microsoft ehome items ( repeat for each - there were 3 in my case),
4)click 'update driver software'
5)click 'browse computer for software'
6)click 'let me pick from a list of drivers'
7)select HID compliant device, (it dosent seem to work of HID compliant keyboard for some reason)
8)click next

once i had did this this to the three entries, the right shift key started working. Seemed to fix ht eright shift key issue in dosbox as well

Hope this helps

A new hope. Lua-build coming.. 2011-2012, i hope. DreamZzz took new programmers in project - mr. TehnoMag in the case.

Yeah, I saw some discussion of this on the Elite Russia FFED3D forum. I struggled to understand what is planned though; Google Translate doesn't work too well with Russian :(
Sounds promising though :)

1. DreamZzz brought the game code in order. Continues cleaning and debugging the code.
2. Source filled on site and accessed by several programmers, including mr. TehnoMag.
3. In the source code Anisotropic-mod found parsed and rewritten the logic of missions, trade, bulletin boards, pirates and bonuses. This will help bring the FFE D3D to lua.
4. TehnoMag engaged in improvement of the game. Added some things.
5. DreamZzz promises new builds, when going to fix the bugs. Gradually. Hardly worth waiting for, what with the first build of the game will change very much. But the work is, in my opinion.

In any case, DreamZzz has made available to few programmers our sources of the Elite.

Sorry my swahili.

Does sound good I hope they do some decent editors for the game and not have any of that scripting shenanigans that Pioneer insist on.

Before anything else, please please PLEASE fix the bug where the bombing/photo target doesn't appear. Drives me mad, switching between D3D and JJFFE :mad:

Hey this is great news! :D
I am soooooooooo glad the Russian guys are back and working again on FFE3D. Wonderful, and they are converting the game over to Lua too? Now this could be interesting indeed. Perhaps there could be some crossover development between Pioneer and FFE3D? Although I do hope both the games maintain their individuality from each other too.

Well think its time to try this out on my new 1920x1080 widescreen laptop :p

And get all the latest additions, might start again.

What's people recommendations for Frontier package/mod/addons for playability and looking soopa :cool: on the eyecandy side of things?

As there's lots of problems reading that Russian site. Is there a single download for the d3d with new models/sounds etc? as an installer or to extract over the existing ffe folder. It would make it easier.

Does anyone have the fourth startup location?

I'm sure there were 4,
1 - Ross - Eagle - Class1
2 - Sol - Eagle Interplanetary Drive
3 - Lave - Cobra MkIII
4 - Returns bad file name, and I'm sure there was a 4th location.

Help?
thanks

I'm sure that the 4th location was to load the last saved file.
