  • Hello,


    I tried to get the CF 1.9 Mod working now for several times. And I´m not able to get it working. Search Function didn´t helped me (at least I didn´t find anything which helped).


    My System:
    Notebook
    Win7 64 Bit
    Intel i5
    Geforce 330M GT
    8 Gb Ram


    Here´s the description how I tried it:


    - Install a complete new Freelancer Vanilla (no old savegames stored)


    - install FMM 1.31 to the Freelancer Game directory


    - give full rights to all users for this folder


    - stopped AntiVir


    - tried to remove write protection (cmd.exe and attrib -r /s), not sure if that worked properly


    - installed CF 1.9 into the FMM mod directory


    - activated Crossfire with FMM


    Now I tried to start the Mod:


    - using the "normal" Freelancer.exe: normal Freelancer starts (with already small fonts)


    - using the Crossfire.exe from the crossfire folder: launcher starts and updating, after Launcherupdate was done I restarted the Launcher, it immediatly crashed (Programm funktioniert nicht mehr, English: programm does not work any longer)


    - if I try to start Singleplayer Launcher is closing and nothing more happens (no process was started)


    - sometimes I get the note that some kind of .dll file is missing (missing .dll changes)



    Everything was done wtih compatibility mode WinXP SP3 and Admin rights.


    I tried some different ways before but the results were the same, I think the last way I tried was the best one (see description).


    I tried the steps also on an Win7 32 Bit (VM System), results are the same.



    I really hope someone can help me, I really would like to play your Mod. I arrived the end of my Knowledge now and I have no Idea what I could try now.

  • Hello Horst, it looks like problem with new launcher. Try look here: index.php?page=Article&articleID=968&languageID=1

  • Hi Horst,


    "install FMM 1.31 to the Freelancer Game directory" is not default location and should be "C:\Program Files (x86)\Freelancer Mod Manager" (Win64).
    After activating CF, you should do the attrib thing again, to be sure nothing is write protected (your command is correct).


    And some "programs" can lock files in CF installation. Close them before starting CF.
