Q?: 4-Admin Or Knowlegeable
-
Ya it say 3G but most of the time it says its using edge and i notice i get the best reception and all that when thats what its using.
-
Q:I was also wondering if to go on line there is a specific download i need recently bought this computer and its a win-7 64bit Ive been reading a lot of scary things about W-7 causing Freelancer not to play and i have been having problems with getting mod manager to work i plan to try some of the things ive read.
but the thing that concerns me the most is open SP won’t deactavate ive uninstalled and reinstalled many times
I read something about big problems deleting fmbackfiles (i think thats what they where called) but i found one for open player in the install folder and deleted it after i uninstalled freelancer. i found and read the warning after i deleted and emptied my trash bin.
Am I COOKED.

Do not install Freelancer and FLMM to Program Files.
That will solve most of your problems.To get online, read the tutorial linked at the top of the page right under the search bar.
-
ive been instaling them in prog files x86.
where should i install ?
Library? -
Library?
-
Basically, anywhere but.
My Documents, anywhere.A lot of problems spawn from Windows going ‘Hey, what are you doing NO STOP THAT.’ when a program tries to edit files in Program Files, so while you can disable that ‘feature’, it’s really just easier not to install there.
It’s only ever been a problem with FL, at least as far as I’ve seen.
-
Wow You Can’t imagine How much I appreciate all your help.
THANK YOU.All
-
It should still be OK for FL.
For FLMM run the installer as Administrator and when you set the settings for FLMM, set it to have Admin privileges.
See if that works.
-
With w-7 does that box saying programe may have installed improperly ALWAYS rear its ugly head or did it realy not perhaps install properly
-
I used to get it a lot, I always just ignored it and used my own intuition.
But, I’m being archaic and using XP these days, the only popups I get is Firewall blocking everything xD
-
If you run on EDGE, you will not be able to play any sort of online game. That’s just too slow.
-
Doyou know if there is a way to make it stay on 3G
and not jump to other signal types. -
So it comes down to best to use land line unless your sitting under a cell tower and even then your taking your chances.
THANK YOU ALL for your responses i guess ill have to rethink Cell only Service.

Ok i’m hooked into a land line and trying to figure out how to get through the steps for on line i went to the conection tutorial and it said
“Before looking any further, please be sure you have installed and configured a multiplayer connection method”.
I opened game and on milti-p i hit enternet and when i did it say’s it’s wanting to GIVE me an ID like there should be one in the slot Below. It acts like im suposed to CREATE an ID Though with Flashing curser in slot.
there is another post elswhere.
it doesn’t give me The ID just a curser I guess i dont know how to procceed.

Anywhere you want as long as you avoid the ‘Program File (x86)’ folder.
