FL Rheinland Cruiser and audio mod UPDATED V 1.1
 

Here is my newest creation. The Rheinland Cruiser from Freelancer together with audio mod.

Features:

1 A massive Rheinland Cruiser :-) armed with 6 weapons 2 of them being the upgraded Mass Drivers from Sith Decimator mod. 4 System slots enable a good upgradeability. The ship has 8 cargo holds. A thing you will notice is the very high movement spped and the slow turning. The ship is not capable of ramming but with a good shield and a cloaker it will kill a corvette or two because of its high speed. The audio mod makes sound more intence in battles and replaces the bridge ambience (not the other extra radio sounds and beeps and crew sppech) with a theme from Freelancer (the Liberty music when cruising without hostile around. The combat music comes from the Rheinland combat theme. And there are some other small music themes updated (find them yourself). The mod wheighs 2.7MB so download time should be short. On a last note the ship replaces all terran ship in ship selection screen so you can play the mission you like with that excellent ship.

Too bad you don't have a mac version...

Use Stuffit Expander.
Just drop the .exe file onto it, and it'll expand it for you.
I've just tried it on my PowerBook, and it works!
Never knew it could do that.

Just a word of warning when you install this mod...

I encountered a problem with installation. When I installed it, the Rheinland Cruiser mod didn't appear in the list of available mods on the Weird Worlds launch screen.

It turns out that the .exe file is trying to extract to the wrong directory. The default for the .exe file is to extract to \program files\shARpnel games\..., instead of to \program files\ShRApnel games\...

When I moved the Rheinland Cruiser directory to the Shrapnel games\weird worlds directory, it showed up properly in the launch screen.
