    Thanks for the quick reply. I checked the small dot and the beam was not mounted!! I sold it and bought it again and now it's mounted and working normally...


    I'm kinda confused now i thought that when you buy new equipment they are auto mounted? What am i missing?

    Hi all. So yesterday i managed to get rid of the Rhino and buy me my first decent ship the Werewolf (huge upgrade, i' m lovin it). So i sold my old equipment and looked around for some upgrades, I bought weapons, new scanner and the medium tractor shield. Then went out podding to test out my new toy. Killed some rogues, but when i tried to use my medium tractor beam nothing happens i can't pull in anything pods or any other kind of loot (my cargo hold is empty). I reconfigured my control keys for the beam and tried again. Nothing. Then i went back and bought a light tractor beam and tried again. This time i could pull all the loot. I reinstalled the medium tractor beam, killed a couple of xenos and tried to get the loot but again nothing happened. The medium tractor beam refuses to work.


    I tried all this again after quitting the game and restarting my computer, Same deal.


    Any thoughts?

    So i tried to follow all the instructions to the letter (clean install, admin rights, antivirus exceptions, read only removal, net framework, user account control settings etc.). When i run the freelancer crossfire (not the shortcut) the launcher is there but it does nothing. i get no errors, no notification of somekind. it is just stuck to 0%. When i press singleplayer the game crashes after intro. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
