Thanks I figured it out finally, I had to search my hard drive for any other installs and did a complete fresh install from the ground up following instructions to the letter ..and it worked really well ... now I'm bouncing around between Pennsylvania and Liberty gathering up as much as I can , have a nice little freighter not to impressive fire power shields or engine but its hull is thick enough than it reminds me of something built in Reinland... working on my navigation skills .. I am beginning to think this is my favorite mod, still no interactions with any thing but AI...
