4.80 not activating.

[Dab]

Unlike most of the others, my problem isn't a central archive message..

Error: problem activating 'Discovery Mod v4.80'
Error: SHCopyFile failed ('C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Freelancer\DATA\SOLAR\DOCKABLE\docking_ringx2_lod.sur.flmmbak' to 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Freelancer\DATA\SOLAR\DOCKABLE\docking_ringx2_lod_.sur')

I've reDLd from here and Lancer's Reactor. And still get the same message, help would be appreciated.

It looks like a file write error due to read only permissions...

Does your user have admin rights?

Yes.. My account is the main admin account for the computer.

Maybe the file's in use (i.e. loaded in memory by some other process). Maybe re-log or restart for this. Or perhaps you should try a fresh directory by copying the files you need again (unpacking the mod / installing again)...

Try doing a clean reinstall of FL...
I don't have much of a clue of why you get that error other than Eon Idea...

Error in script that activates Ghost Docking Ring. This script renames docking_ringx2_lod.sur into docking_ringx2_lod_.sur. Old file is backed up as docking_ringx2_lod.sur.flmmbak.

I suppose this error is more likely to happen while deactivation of Discovery, if FLMM is unable to restore backup file. If it happens while activation... well, then you probably messed something with FL files, and I see no way to restore everything then to reinstall FL.

Don't forget to save your ID.

You mean all 3? =D

And yeah, when trying to use the Escalcia mod it also wouldn't start, it'd activate, but when started it couldn't find the common.dll, so I'm gonna HAVE to reinstall anyway.

Uh.... What?

I've read that four times, still makes no sense to me. Oh well... I don't need it.

I have had the problem with the ghost docking ring thing before and I tryed reinstalling mod and all that did not work so I reinstalled FL, mod and FLMM all at the same time and that fixed it.

I've been mildly miffed by one-shot weapons since their implementation, oh so long ago. I remember the days when fights were a matter of who could aim better, rather than who could aim a single shot. - Virus
