i've tried re-installing both freelancer and flmm making sure i deleted the old files from the hard drive, and still, it won't activate. what am i doing wrong?
1. Are you using FLMM 1.3?
2. Try going to Tools then Restore Backups. That worked for me when some weird error message came up after I tried to activate it.
Also, go to DSupdate after you have installed the mod.
this is what the lig says when it doesn't activate:
Error: FLMM has determined that 'Discovery Mod v4.84' won't properly activate.
Error: Unable to find section '[Costume]'(...) in 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Freelancer\data\characters\costumes.ini'
' Wrote:Give us more details than "it won't activate".
What is your OS (Windows version)? How exactly are you doing it? What does it say when it fails?
