Crossfire keeps crashing

    Hi,few days back,i installed Freelancer,installed Mod manager 1.31 and installed Crossfire.Launched singleplayer.Looked like everything ok.Now i`m getting constant crash.I am in colorado system near Xenos Auray base farming for rep and escape pods by blasting Xeno ships.Tactics is:i standing in front of one of two dock doors.When ship appears in dock and doors are opening,i`m blasting into dock destroying enemy in process.Good tactic for low level player like me but problem is,after few or several such kills,game crashes to desktop.No problems with enemies i encountering after trade lane disruption or whatever in space,be it encounter or mission.Can anyone tell me (and others) what is the problem?I think its the game,workaround is don`t do that but game must be stable,i don`t wanna think constantly of stuff which can provoke game crash. ?(

    this tactics works without probs in vanilla FL? In all cases can be good idea look here on FAQ what is needed for detailed crash report.

    I have to say, that since the new launcher was introduced, I have been continually crashing to desktop.


    a little while back I was in the nomad hunt, doing fairly well, then abruptly crashed to desktop. the launcher had stopped working.


    just saying.

    the launcher can not have any relations with FL crashes

    Don't discuss with idiots. They only drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience there.

    No problems with the launcher creating crashes. Every now and then a re-install is in order.

    I just installed Freelancer,mod manager and crossfire,and no,not by-the-book.I will try that and report my findings.In vanilla Freelancer i just farmed xenos in encounters,by patrol routes or in political enemy territory.They spawning there.Looks like this not working in crossfire,no enemies spawning by patrol routes or territories.


    All programs installed "by-the-book",ran as administrator,this time crash happened not after several kills but after ~150.I`m running Swashbuckler freighter non existing in vanilla,maybe this ship has something to do with crash?Or,sometimes exploding enemies hits my ship.Shields are intact but ship is "knocked",turns in any direction suddenly and violently.Maybe these explosions has something to do with crash?

    Edited once, last by ilgasrimas: new info ().

    I think Gunny made a valid point,,,,,,,,,,,,,,assuming he meant a re-install of the computer????


    OP is adamant that it is not the launcher, so all that is left (for me anyhow) is a re-install of my OS


    will have to just make do with the irritation for time being


    cheers
