They also made the boosted up Steltek gun super weak, it does next to no damage worse than a laser. And in Righteous Fire, they made the normal Steltek Gun a bit weaker, or else you'd get your butt kicked by the Retros.

The Steltek Gun comes in 3 varieties, the normal one you first get, the boosted up one you get later, and the version on the Steltek Drone which sucks.

A lot of the statistics for them are wrong in both the game manual and Playtester's Guide. And neutron guns are so cheap, they are probably definitely the best buy in the game hehe. Most places say that meson blasters are the best cheapish guns, but they are actually not that great.ĭepending on your playstyle and abilities, neutron guns and plasma guns (they are very similar in statistics) may be better than tachyon cannons.

Tachyons are much better than mass drivers for almost all cases, but mass drivers are an excellent cheap weapon and quite powerful in their own right. Privateer Playtester's Guide is wrong hehe. They actually do 5.0 cm damage after all, like the game manual says. Tachyons ARE super good weapons, just like most guides say. This is the last thing left for me to solve regarding play/weaponry/item statistics. I hacked *something* about the engines so that I can have as much engine recharge power as I want, and as much engine bar length as I want (both are editable), but I think my change in engines may have affected every ship in the game including enemy ones. Those of you who have tried to edit the engines in the savefiles probably know what I mean.

I'm still working on figuring out how to hack engines and how they work. There are lots of other things I'd like to do, and lots I know how to do. One thing I'd like is to be able to have the Steltek drone wingman in Righteous Fire, but that really seems tough/impossible, so I'd really like some help. But there are still many things I'd like to do and I'm just a novice at this. Now by editing the PRIVATER.EXE file I can change the Steltek drone into any other ship I want, and I can change the pilot as well. How? I reincarnated the Steltek drone and made him my friend. Just from editing the savefile years ago, I'd learned how to give myself a wingman in Privateer as well.something I hadn't seen other people mention. My instincts had always told me neutron guns and mass drivers were the bomb and I was mostly right after all since some of the claimed stats were wrong. I never completely believed it that meson blasters are one of the best cheap weapons, and according to the info I hacked they aren't even close. The same goes for the Privateer Playtesters Guide that I also bought long ago. A lot of the information in the manual that comes with the game is correct but a lot is incorrect. I'm also compiling a list of statistics for all the guns, shields, ships, engines in the game.

A lot of my earlier experience with hacking the savefiles really helped, cause I already knew how to hack certain abilities that I hadn't seen any internet sources/programs mention.Īnyway, so now I'm trying to extract and hack as much information out of the game as possible to get the most enjoyment out of this old game. And I went beyond that and found more things to hack as well.

EXE files themselves, following the guidelines of some textfiles for Privateer hacking I downloaded. Interested, I started editing the data of the. In the past week I've been replaying Privateer and Righteous Fire, and I also noticed lots of cool downloadable hacks that give even more powerful than just editing savefiles. It was so easy to hack up the savefiles to become amazingly strong even by a novice like myself. I know this is an old game, but it was pretty fun.
