bc46/multiintro-updated

Plugin for the game Freelancer that allows more than three intro screens to be displayed. It will also pick one at random when returning to the intro screen instead of sticking to the one chosen at startup.

MultiIntro Updated

This project builds on the MultiIntro plugin for Freelancer (2003) by M0tah to provide several new features and fixes. The changelog lists all the changes that have been made on top of the original plugin.

Description

Allows more than three intro screens to be displayed. It will also pick one at random when returning to the intro screen instead of sticking to the one chosen at startup.

Installation instructions

Download the latest MultiIntro.zip from Releases. Extract both the dll and ini file and move them to the EXE folder of your Freelancer installation. Next, open the dacom.ini file and append MultiIntro.dll to the [Libraries] section.

Options

In the MultiIntro.ini config file, a few options with documentation are available to modify the plugin's behavior.

Build instructions

Build the project using the NMAKE tool from Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 (VC6 or Visual Studio 98) with the included makefile. This will output the MultiIntro.dll file in the bin folder. Building the project using other compilers may require the code to be modified.
