New Freelancer Mod Commemorates Privateer 2 Anniversary Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

To celebrate the 16th anniversary of Privateer 2 (Dec '96), Charlie Perkins has prepared a Freelancer mod that transports the player to a bare-bones version of the Tri-System. Eight planets and nine flyable ships are provided, and some of the commodities should look familiar! The splashscreen image was created by NinjaLA. A wallpaper sized version of the graphic can be found here.

You'll need the Freelancer Mod Manager found here: https://download.wcnews.com/files/mods/flmminstaller1.31.exe

and the mod itself can be found here: https://download.wcnews.com/files/mods/Privateer2Ever.flmod

Create a clean install of Freelancer. Do NOT install the 1.1 patch; this is provided with the mod and installing it may lead to undesirable effects.

Download and install version 1,31 of the Freelancer Mod Manager. Do NOT download newer versions; they are known to be buggy and may corrupt your install.

Double-clicking on the mod file will then automatically install it. To play, launch Freelancer Mod Manager and activate the mod, then launch the game.

If the game crashes on launch, go into the Tools menu and delete the autosave.

WARNING
64-bit Windows editions have a known bug where rundll32.exe will continue to run after the game is closed. This will lead to errors during mod deactivation. At worst, this will leave mod files in your game folder. This may not have adverse effects - but then again, it might. To be safe, it is recommended to either back up your original installation or run the game from a seperate install.
