So. I'm unable to identify all ships I see; no description at all.
Non-vanilla FL equipment shows up as IDS?, same goes for cargo.
Mind you, this is after a reinstall just to fix this issue. What should I do? :( [link to screenshot] (fixed the link--cannon)
Not EVERYTHING, but FL and the mod, yes. I think I did something odd with FLMM last time I fixed it (the problem), I have no idea what made it appear again. I only remember I reinstalled FL though and that's the advice I've been getting from everyone else. I guess I will simply uninstall and delete the Freelancer folder with all eventual leftover files that might be messing it up, I think that was what I did the last time.
Exactly what I've been doing all the time; FLMM is being run as admin and all firewall/antivirus software is fine/not related to this issue. I will however try following the tip by trying to place it to my desktop, even though I'm quite sure this shouldn't be an issue when FLMM is set to run as admin and the pretty much exactly same (as far as I know) setup procedure has worked before.
Thanks anyways though, will bring an update ASAP.
<strike>The link to the picture?
The picture is simply a screenshot of an equipment dealer, where you can see all IDSs displaying simply IDS?, same the scanner right after Deep Scanner.</strike>
Thanks for fixing it, Cannon, didn't notice it when I put it there.
EDIT2: Attempting to install FL to My Documents. Enabling mod now. Everything is being run as admin.
EDIT3: That fixed it. I actually think I might have installed/copied FL from an external harddrive/memory stick long ago and simply copied it from there, and I guess that is why it has worked before. I'd also like to mention that simply turning off the write protection on the Freelancer folder might fix it, I'll try that later as an maybe easier fix for this problem.
