freelancer.exe is missing
Dragonsfire:
1) look at FAQ
2) put your CF folder at AV exceptions list
3) look at your AV (antivirus) quarantine list .... you almost sure find there CF files
4) if you completely lost freelancer.exe try this: use 7-zip and open installation file Crossfire181.exe. ..there you in folder "Crossfire181.exe\$_OUTDIR\EXE\" find freelancer.exe. -
Some are really big: D

It looks good

Hmmm ..maybe it is only my subjective feeling, but every time when ppl give server little more time after restart***, game crash frequency is drastically reduced. ..***Series crashes every cca 5 minutes: after little conversation with new ppl about restarting this ended (more times verified).

OK, if we have no real chance 100% solve this problem: So what create new bases (dock only for save) before Sol rifts? . There is one trick how to "save" before go into Sol, but this is not user friendly... and I don't check if it work in case that game CTD. ..be returned to Weth after crash isn't fun
And one more thing: Would be big problem create utility which can check, that players game files (for Sol) are all OK? ... (AV problems).
UPDATE: Before rift to Altair is Order fleet ... on of this ship can be dockable.

My own experience with Sol. From Sirius side (fighter): Jump take loong time, I was sure that game is "hanged" but after some time (don't remember exactly ... cca 2-3 min) I enter Sol and all was OK. From Sirius (this time with BS Osiris Class) games "hanged" different way: I still see Styx space and hear attack from Nomads (I could not do anything) but after some time (again
) jump begin and I enter Sol. Next Jumps was OK ... maybe only small problem that I have problem dock at last gate Mars?-Earth with BS. Mars-Earthl I give up and use cruise, from Earthl I was more successful and after some free flight maneuvers I dock at gate.ABOUT my own experience with CTD: description: game closes to desktop, but still exist in the status bar and I cannot go back. I encountered this type of problem few times after I enter IC ... but this was solved immediately after I take Freelancer files out of my AV control.
What I hear from one deutsch player: Server crashed (repeatably) after he began jump into Sol (from Sirius). I was on-line and server crashed immediately after he wrote "jump now" ... He said that after 2-3 attempt (for me server "crashed" every time) that he entered successfully Sol, but others players was kicked off ... before this I see at http://www.crossfire.swat-portal.de/ "-1" ppl at server.
Maybe that Cultprit for CTD is AV (my nod32 really did not like Sol.dll and quarantined this file every time).
OP already said several times that he wont work on the mod, until the other stuff is done...
Y, but after we help him with "other stuff"=Portal he can use this reports for faster repair. -
Yesterday I several times wrote via console about restarting game (launcher). Even wrote to all small levels (mostly new ppl) but still someone not listen or will not listen. This crashes are 99% because that
It's sad but more that 50% new ppl don't read rules or warnings In NY ... I know this because almost every second player say something as: wow, I not know this ...

.... we're going on an expedition to inner core tomorrow. in search for new weaponry for our ships
.... Wolf out.Hi DarkWolf,
If you will know time when you go to IC please let know (best thing is use Calendar and create New event ... big expedition in IC is always fun) I would like to help you if you want.
-
Right. ... All who can read knows, that use this weapons is cheating.

When I do finally kill and survive a hostile alien encounter, you better check the servers because I'm going to scream so friggin loud that it will knock the medals right off SA_Arrow's signature.
ROFL

Lol more cops.
CF is like Cuba. 70% of public employers are police
where are the pirates?? maybe in Miami
hmm, it's true . ... We need more pirates = more fun in classic RP ... ( previous Mongol avatar was really nice pirate )
lol I finished that in the first week CF appeared, in the days the server was offline a day for some fixes.... (in SP) went myself at max speed and explored it all, even the wrecks. Part of your DB is given by me to Orion as inspiration, so he don't miss anything.
...
This is really UNFAIR
.... ..Why I explore on-line?

Forlon i have 4 diferent fighters. All of them have some diferent stats and i tested all of them in pvp. Let me say that only 2 ships are fit for my fighting style.
I also have a thanathos, its faster turning than a lagg, but has a weak point, and i will not tell u. If u want try to kill me and you will sell it very fast, belive me
OK, we can test it in space 
-
I also have NOD ...
. ... First (when I found this problems) I remove files from quarantine and next made exceptions. Game was ok, no needed to reinstall -
-
well i like many of the new ships introduced in 1.8 but...
Op u said on the other post you would make some minor changes on ships. U introduced so many good looking ships, but turnspeed is just bad.
Is it possible to make, let me say about 10-15 ships with turnspeed like lagg and thananathos. Becouse once again all players in the game use the same ship, and in my opinion its a waste becouse there are some awsome ships that are slow as train.
There are exactly 7 ships in the mod with the same turn speed of the lagg. There is are 12 ships with slightly slower turning (really slightly) and there are even ships (a very few) with better turning.
Thx OP. This only shows that ppl don't want experiment with ships. They prefer easily and comfort way. ... Why search, if we can use Lagg ... 
. Its really good to know, that make the effort with searching is worth.@DR: Second thing is, that not all knows (or better say: only few know?
), how to use max potential of their ships. I know it myself very well ... 
.... ship dimensions, turning speed, use Armour upgrade or weight reducer?, weapons placement ... weapons choice ... keyboard usage ...

Fuffud:
What operating system use your friend? ..be sure you use administrator rights when install game.
Run CFguide.swf and carefully read instructions.
Use fresh instal FL, FLMM and CF: this needed: Completely uninstall all other mods and FL. Don't forget about FL folders on C:\Documents !!! ... (I advise use system search for "Freelancer" at your system disk.)
Use sw as is ccleaner and clean registry.
Restart windows and begin with install.
Disabling AV before start with install is wise
Here is my settings for AV (NOD32) and I have no problems with playing or run CF.p.s.: Shockwave gives good advice

I am really "lucky" with this event Sam
... RL, weather issues, SWAT issues and today in work ... But i am still optimistic, that I would participate at least one round

Hi. For your second question:
For you first q.: The best trade routes are in most cases Clans secret and not published publicly (it is always good information for pirates
)
