If I play the vanilla freelancer version?

Does it corrupt your multiplayer files or does nothing to your 4.86 version?

No, what exact MP files can it corrupt? Charactes are logged serverside.

Pretty sure you cant play vanilla when you have discovery mod installed.

Why? I mean the original app, not the Discovery one.

Vanilla does not break Discovery, however some Discovery tweaks can make problems for Vanilla. The player config files use the same files and directories, and so do the single-player savegame files. So if you do something like create a savegame in Discovery that uses ships and/or tech that is not in vanilla, you will cause the vanilla game to crash. Nothing bad has ever happened to me in the other direction though, and Discovery understands all of the vanilla options, so it shouldn't.

Discovery 24/7 Negotiating Tactics:

I installed Vanilla - copy pasted it to another directory and installed Disco over it. so now I have Vanilla as basic FL and Disco as copy/pasted version. all I need to change is savegames when I wanna play Vanilla/Disco SP

I guess the solution need to be listed and pinned in help forum.

Official faction players that are often accused of elitism, never deploy them and have those weird, immersion killing "fair fight/dueling" suicidal hobbies. (yes, i've seen enough of those lolduels, where house military with overwhelming force on the field willingly loses a pilot in a duel. ffs.)

Thats pretty much what I have.
So I leave the other one for modding/making systems/whatever. Or to play vanilla.

All the above posters are wrong except Ursus. Discovery installs itself to a separate location, so just start up vanilla and play.

Yea, you are correct in that. But Im not wrong at all. My Discovery is not installed from pure Vinilla. I mixed it with some other files that will corrupt Vanilla. So what I did were just as I said: Installed Vanilla, copy/pasted it and modified copy with some files and installed Disco from this copy, not touching Vanilla at all.
