I used to play there, I think I quit when an admin exploded my ship for saying "lol"
I saw a battleship run into an asteroid and flip around like a hunk of cardboard, and so laughed at the scene.
Laughing over the comms causes reactor breaches I guess. Those role players took themselves far too seriously. [ This Message was edited by: Fluttershy on 2012-03-27 05:10 ]

How did they do that? I mean, I know the AI capital ships couldn't be knocked around, but the player ones were flimsy due to some internal hard coded mechanic.
Did they crack the EXE?

I hear freeworld released a new patch lately, and in fact Discovery doesn't even go through mod manager it install its own seperate folder plus exe.

It's complicated, but Freeworlds and Freeworlds TOW is different. The second is almost a complete remake, which is coming out in a month or two.

has the source code been released?
The game has been abandoned and the host server is taken down, I see no reason for them to not make the game free.
Look at Free Allegiance, that was made open source quite a few years ago, and is active and developed to this very day.
