The Handy Bendy SAVEGAME feature...
Here on this section of the disk, kindly provided by the sweat and
toil of one of our local club members Rob, (Ta v. much!) are two
very interesting and potentially useful 'save-game' files for
Frontier..
(Also a bit of work put in on MAJORTOM by myself lately..)
The first one of these MAJORTOM gives you a very useful leg-up
into this game, with a much bigger ship (A Tiger Trader) which is
tooled-up with a non-wimpy 4MW Beam laser, eight shield units, a
hull auto-repair system (!) auto-pilot, radar mapper, scanner,
atmospheric shielding, fuel/cargo scoop etc..
Additionally you now have an 'Elite' rating of 'Competent', a
Federal military rank of corporal, loadsa cash, four crew members,
and some medals or awards and permits.. not bad eh!! Up to you
what to do with it from there..
The second 'save-game', IMPERIAL, gives you an identical ship to
MAJORTOM but puts you right in the middle of a mission you are
carrying out on behalf of the Federation, that is to destroy an
Imperial courier ship.. You are already in the solar system and
targeted and should just click on autopilot to get to that ship..
Successful destruction tends to result in all his friends coming
to take out their frustrations on you, and you are involved in a
HUGE pitched battle, which if you survive, would suggest that any
accolades are well earned.. I actually did manage to complete the
mission and fight my way out of the aftermath, but got a busted
hyperdrive as a result.. The shipyard at the local spaceport was
unable to help, so I was left with a useless ship.. Such is life..
It may be a good idea to pause the game and have a quick fiddle
with the options menu as the joystick may be off (If you are a
joystick user) and that infernal "music" has a habit of cropping up
at the worst times....
Yes these are useable on Falcon as well...
Happy playing!!
