i kept working on it the past days and now trying everything with 1.9, still no difference. i registered a total of 8 different msinet.ocx found from all over the net (google is my best friend by now i guess). each time the same problem. im getting tired of this : /

nothing changed... its frustrating. i redownloaded again and again, reinstalled again and again, propably registered 5 different versions of msinet.ocx , still it keeps giving the error message when starting the game that msinet.ocx or one of its dependencies are not correctly registered : ( i thought it should run pretty well on windows 7 x64

apparently i cant redownload the mod right now aswell, atleast from this portal. im gonna give it a try with the version from moddb again, hope that may does a change.

riebens i did as u mentioned, no success : /

huor ; im running windows 7 64bit, i was unable to register the file that was offered here as it appears to be for 32bit only. so i loaded my file from here http://angrybyte.com/windows-h…r-64-bit-windows-7-vista/

i already loaded it many times now, so still trying to redownload and then uninstall everything again? i somehow cant imagine it would change anything : /

so i tried the following now; taking the file from the exe-folder and copy it into the syswow64, registering works fine, however still the error when launching freelancer. deleting the file in the exe folder with the same file in syswow, no difference. i also cant force him to register the file from the exe-path, the file has to be in syswow to do so. having my original file that i downloaded for this process in syswow and cutting the other one from the exe-folder and saving it on desktop (i dont want to risk deleting it, dunno of the consequences), registering works in syswow but still the error...

im just getting more confused and giving up hopes : / im kinda tired of discovery and hoped to be able to play this one.

sorry but i fear a kind of misunderstanding by my side now. so should i intend to register the one from the exe-folder or get rid of that one so it doesnt conflict with the one i downloaded?

german, yeah.

i found a msinet.ocx in the exe-folder of freelancer, however it has a different size than the others i used to deal with now. the one i loaded from here was 129kb, the one in the folder has 113. the one i activated now and is finally running has 130kb (downloaded from the link i mentioned earlier)

when running the cmd as admin, it automaticly shows up c:\windows\system32>

-my msinet.ocx is in syswow64, and following the instructions from the link i typed in "regsvr32 c:\windows\syswow64\MSINET.OCX” - so i guess it registered that file and not the one in the exe-folder. do i have to pay any special attention about the one in the exe-folder? i thought it might be just part of the installation, and kinda ignored it.

i tried what u mentioned thom88, however the result is the same. keeps giving the error-message about msinet.ocx when trying to launch freelancer : (

alright, i kept searching a bit and found this one
http://angrybyte.com/windows-h…r-64-bit-windows-7-vista/
(found via google)
i did exactly as written there, the registration worked, however starting freelancer still gives the error message "msinet.ocx or one of its dependencies ..."
guess i did something wrong.

hey guys.
first of all, yeah i tried the faq, i followed lots of different threads out there and used the search, yet its not working.
the issues with installing the mod have been solved by having a clean install of all three , modmanager 1.31 (however the program itself sais its 1.3) - freelancer - crossfire (downloaded from this portal-4 times now)
i can run the mod on the manager and it installs alright without any trouble.
however i get the usual msinet.ocx - error when trying to run freelancer. administrator is always on, trying different compatibilitys (screw my english if this is wrong), didnt help either.
run-cmd opens the cmd-console for me, however when i use "regsvr32 msinet.ocx" i get just another error. since its german i just try to describe it as i can: modul propably not compatible with my version, either x32 or x64, i hope u guys know which issue im talking about. im running windows 7 and tried having the msinet.ocx file that is also offered here on the portal, put in the system32 folder OR syswow64 OR both at the same time.
when having in both its the issue with the version of windows
when it is in syswow64 it gives an error about loading the modul, should check if it is on the right path or something about binary, seriously my english reaches its limit there.
when it is in system32 its the issue with the version
so i guess it is right to locate that file in syswow64, however it wont let me register it. can anybody help me? id appreciate it, used to play discovery mod for a while now, never knowing about crossfire. read a little about crossfire, instantly got rid of discovery and now im fighting with crossfire for quite a while though.
thx in advance
cheers
