Everytime I start up Freelancer, I need to do the following:

* Deactivate the Disco mod.
* Reactivate it.
* Download the update for the mod.

If I start up Freelancer twice in a row without doing this, every non-vanilla item will be nameless.
Weapons, ships, systems, jumpholes, you name it, I can't see it. This is getting rather annoying, as I can't even use my scanners to see what weapons or ships people have.

Someone suggested me to reinstall the Disco mod, I did this already but it didn't help a single bit.

Any suggestions?

There's a file in your Freelancer folder called "msxml3.msi". It's an XML parser reinstaller for Microsoft crap. It usually fixes strange errors like this. Give it a run and let it do its work. If it doesn't work, there's another file called rds1enu.msi you can try, for the Common Games Redistributable. Those SHOULD fix your problem.

Run it as an admin.

Did both, seems to be fixed now. Thanks.
