Well i did't know that sry for my ignorance then that is good for me also. On next windows reinstall or game reinstall ill just keep one save from the last vanilla mission

I think you can't use saves from FL you need to do it all over again cos mission trigers but it's worthit trust me Remember one thing dont ever use auto save feature just do frequent saves when ever you dock somewhere. Feel free to ask anything everyone in the forum will be happy to help. You can try multiplayer also if you do see ya in space

You need to finish vanilla campaign first then continue to CF campaign. Vanilla is sligthly diferent from original FL it's a bit harder but the main story is the same. It is new experiance it looks a way better

Ok I'm sticking with the OpenGL renderer I tried Dx10 and and the game crashed in the middle of free flight. I adjusted the preset in ReShade, started it in OpenGL and the game now looks better than ever, no FPS drops, the lighting is excellent. it doesn't seem to work the same on all systems, maybe an issue with the drivers? Or windows issue. Btw im running Win11.

Parallels is a toool to enable windows apps to run under MacOS enviroment something like a sandbox. Obviously can't run some games probably a driver issue. I did sometimes tried to install windows on Mac laptops there was issue with drivers every time i came to a point that i think it's impossible.

In the beginning, everything seemed great to me, but I encountered a few bugs along the way. For example, the environment is too bright, the colors are too pronounced and something is happening that I can only explain as asteroid ghosts. Only the outlines of asteroids are visible, while others are normal and you can fly through them. Sometimes I see double jump gates one above the other sometimes they are not visible at all. The interesting thing is that when I press the F12 key, everything returns to normal, although everything is much darker. Now I don't know what the F12 key means, is it a preset in the game or has something to do with my system. I am using opengl renderer and have only tried SP for now. I just need someone to take a picture of the default preset configuration for Reshade, since I made my own preset and now I don't know which one is the original one.

Ok i did multiple fresh installs of FL and CF sometimes got crashes so i tried to solve like this:

Install FL then install CF. After that, don't start CF right away, start FL and start the first mission. You don't have to complete the mission, it's enough for FL to create a Save game folder in the documents folder. Then start CF louncher normally it should not crash anymore.

OK i like the new renderer diference is huge whatever you doing keep up the good work. Even the FPS is better and game runing smooth.

Ok I've been doing a bit of research on those pointless game crashes and I've tried something. They seem to be related to the save game system. I loaded my last save then I deleted the Auto Save made some small changes (bought some ammo) then I overwrote my last save after that I have no more crashes. In conclusion, what the admins have been recommending all this time is not to use the saves that the game makes, but to make your own regularly every time you are docked. Purely so that there would be no crashes in the game and to keep a record of completed missions.

Well me aswell did't have crashes a long time exept that false positive malware issue. And suddenly game crashed with no visible reason it happen in a middle of free flight last night. Today no crashes passed that mission with no issues

Lol before you answered my question i got crash on a mission in dublin to find Quintaine sadly before that i didn't make any saves so bad luck shit happens.

Yep game have bugs but this is a mod Admin can't rly remove all of them that requires a larger team. I just learn to live with the bugs and still be happy playing

So men up and just play

Have you tried this solution? Advices & Hints & Tips - SWAT Portal It helped me

Have you tried both "alt" keys? Normally alternative key combination for letter L is alt+76 uppercace L and alt+108 lowercase L and it works for both alt keys but i dont know if it works ingame. You can also try to type wanted char name in for example notepad then copy-paste in game. Correction there is no way to use lowercase L in game just tried, copy-paste option not working either so sry try to bind another key for toggle hud or dont use char names with lowercase L

I would like to add the fact that even with the latest versions of windows 11 you don't have to manually enable the DirectPlay feature. Just start the game (Freelancer not Crossfire) and it will automatically offer to turn on the feature. That is one of the ways and I guess simpler. I should also add that after installing Freelancer, it is better to start it at least once, I don't know why, but I speak from experience

Which MC launcher you are trying to install? To be more specific, are you trying to install the official launcher or a third party launcher. Is it the Windows version or the Java version

Best option. I have to say this mod is definetly not new player friendly. Multiplayer NPCs WAY TOO MUCH dmg, even in normal systems and not the new added ones.

On SP, I do suggest you use a savefile editor to change your credit volume. The settings on how much you have to grind between missions is increased way too much. Also, if you buy one of the new added ships, your player value just smashes down and doesn't stay the way before you did buy the ship. Was grindling like 20 missions, had 4k credits left to new level, did buy new ship and had to grind 700k again. What a joke.
Another point: Be careful with when you buy new tractor beams and scanners. I did buy the best ones, wanted to buy a new ship and they are just gone and you have your shitty basic ones in the new ship. No clue how it is on MP, since it just annoys me how to make credits, there. Also, there is no option to start neutral to everyone (besides nomads).

So overall, best option for you is to go on SP, create a game and then use a savefile editor and get you 1 billion credits, go on settings, use godmode and then go to where you like.

Beginer in mod yes? No need to use any cheats to get monney where is fun in that? You have multiple ways to do that simplest one is by selling pods at prison stations. You dont just buy ship you need to transfer your good stuff to new ship before hit buy button. MP or SP is all obout grind resources and get best ship that suites you and adequate equipement. If you like story you could just speed run thry vanilla part by buying one of the new powerfull ships and heavy equipement. I did manage once to did this before mission 3 vanilla i get Redemption and best equipement in Sirius i could buy that was near end game stuff and the sence of power was incredible. Use wiki from this site for maps,ships and the rest of stuff to inform obout all and you r good to go! Chears

Maybe I'm repeating myself but have you tried installing the game outside of the system partition? Or if it goes to the system partition (C) it must be installed and run with admin permissions. This applies to win 10 and 11.This way, you avoid the system or firewall blocking you from copying files
