Hi guys,

Just started playing Privateer again after a 10 year break and I must say thanks to all those who brought this game back.

Anyways I have a request/idea. Could you guys make a mod that lets you start out with a few million bucks?

PLEASE :!:

I know it's confusing with the two different forums, but *please* don't post twice about the same thing. It's impolite.

Many people probably will see your message, but they did not have the time to respond in only 30 minutes.

Anyway, you can change the number of credits. They are located in the "explore_universe.mission" file in the "missions" folder. Open it with a text editor (Notepad or Wordpad, but not Microsoft word), and look for a credits line, and add a few 0's to it.

Be careful not to touch anything other than the numeric digits. Otherwise it could cause the game not to start.

some of the games come with a New_Game savegame already made in your .vegastrike directory--if that's the case you have to go in there and edit the credits there manually as well

Well now that you have all that money you can try to buy the confederation off me, but you'll have to try to break my record of 10m credits for that. I played day and night to get that.
