Freelancer: HD Edition is a mod that aims to improve every aspect of the game Freelancer (2003) while keeping the look and feel as close to vanilla as possible. It also serves as a customizable all-in-one package for players so they don't have to worry about installing countless patches and mods to create the perfect HD and bug-free install.
|
|
|
|
This mod was made possible with the help of the [Freelancer: Nomad Legacy](https://freelancer2.space/en/) developers. Thanks to them for providing us their station textures.
|
|
|
|
**N.B. Freelancer: HD Edition does not add additional content on top of Freelancer but rather enhances what the game already has to offer. Although minor gameplay changes were made, Freelancer: HD Edition will always be compatible with vanilla Freelancer. Therefore, players can use this mod to play on all vanilla servers as long as the server owners allow these changes.**

Due to the large file size of many textures used in this mod, some users may experience significantly longer load times during gameplay. Therefore, it is strongly recommended to install Freelancer: HD Edition on an (M.2) SSD.
