I try to make the comparism soon and will report.

For the launcher update which applies 80 updates everytime.

Since I intend to play SP only on my recent Win10 machine, where Forecpoint blocks access to moddb webpage for the launcher, will there be an impact sooner or later for the SP campaign if the installer will never be able to access the update server?

Many thanks

Hi Folks,

Got the same idea of just copying the whole CF folder from the Win7 to the Win10 laptop - and it works.

Now I missed to compare the differences before doing so.

If I find some time I shall de and re ins CF on my old Win10 laptop to reproduce the issue and then compare.

I managed to run the launcher on the Win7 laptop with internet access and it was finding updates.

Maybe that was the trick.

But it would mean the CF 2.0.1 installer is missing files.

The first time start of the launcher was updating 83 files.

Strange is that after that at EVERY following launcher start it reports updates available and updates 80 files each time.

Tried 5 times and always the same. Is this normal?

In case Im able to identify the differences I shall report asap!

Thanks guys!

Hi again,

Tried on my previous laltop with a fresh dl of the 2.0.1 installer but the same.

Also left install dir as default for both Fl and CF.

This is also Win10 US English machine.

Then tried on the even older laptop, win7 US english machine with same installer files used before - and et voila here it works!??? No IDS? For any item?

What could be the issue on my win 10 machines?

Hello again,

I have no clue.

Yes, savegames have been removed.

I tried another full re ins, this time FL "for all users" with local admin account.

1. De ins CF and FL

2. Deleted all remaining FL folders

3. Re ins FL from English iso file

4. Re ins CF

5. Launch CF and start a new SP

Still same, same items as before only have the IDS? And no description.

What could I do?

Another thing just to mention but this should not be the cause: this PC is protected by Forcepoint Endpoint protection which blocks internet access for the launcher. Cant disable or create rule since it is domain controlled - however, when disconnected from the internet CF launcher just comes up offline and no block report from Forcepoint.

Since all components should be included in the CF installer package internet connection should not be required for SP, and surely not to get the files which are *maybe*? Missing for the issue I have.

Many thanks

Hi SWAT_OP-R8R,

Wow, thanks for the utmost quick response.

However, re-ins does not change the issue unfortunately.

Also de and re ins FL before, but no change.

Which files would be the ones I have to look at for sample screenshots attached?

-did you delete something? > No

-did you installed some strange patches that are incompatible? > No

-did you use any other mods which could have overwritten stuff? > No

Some other facts:

-Run Win10 build 1909

-Language and regional settings are US

-FL and CF are installed on D drive (not OS drive)

-FL installed from an ISO

The other options only exist on the installer.

- Ah, thanks, thought this is a sub-selection tree if not choosing Full Install. Got it. Thanks

Take care

Hi Community,

A happy new year!

Took FL out after so many years and finished vanilla 1.0

Now looking for more just came across this breathtaking mod!

Install of 2.0.1 went fine, CF does launch and works so far

There is just one major issue, for a couple of new ship items (some weapons, accessories etc) and also ships in space I dont see names and partly also no item description or picture.

The item names are just IDS?

But thats not the case for all new items.

Its the same if I start a new CF SP game or if I load one of the original vanilla 1.0 saves.

Some new ships in space are just not.named nor decribed when scanned.

Why is that?

And as s side question, were are all the additional option settings in CF 2.0.1 laucher? Just find shaders, cursor and particel settings, but e.g. not the June outfit and other smal settings mentioned in the various wikis and threats for pre 2.0 launcher.

Thanks a lot!
