I need help to make my Discovery 4.85, Freelancer mod manager and Freelancer explorer work

[Shidentora]

I have changed my OS to MS Windows 7 64-bit SP1.
I have installed my Freelancer yesterday (in the "C:/Freelancer" folder, to avoid being bothered by UAC all the time) and just overwritten it by unpacked Discovery mod. It works all right.
I have also installed the FLMM in the same folder, but it just won't work. The loading screen displays all right, but all I get after that is a dozen+ of error messages saying: "(directory EXE/ Freelancer.ini contains invalid path" and whatnot. After that, the FLMM runs, but it just refuses to activate any mod contained within itself (gundam missile, beam weapon...)
And as for my once trusty Freelancer explorer, upon selecting a mod to open, it gives me the message saying: "Cannot open file: C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Games/Freelancer/EXE/FREELANCER.INI and it turns itself off.
Now, do I reinstall everything (or just the game) in "C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Games/Freelancer" to make it work, avoiding any customization of my installation, or what do I do?

this is how to install, mind that if you activate other mods at the same time , the server will autoban you.

this gives you more good tools, I recommend you- Discovery Launchpad by Jongleur it is very good and useful.

this solves your problem with the useless UAC option- I run 7 since like 4 years and with good antivirus and regular update no problem. No need for UAC.

Hi,

I hope its the right place for this...Anyway...

I have changed my OS for windows 7 x64 bit, but impossible to get FLMM working . The game itself is OK, but when i'm running FLMM the following error message appears:

"Unable to find freelancer's directory ('\EXE\Freelanceer.exe' doesn't exist). Do you wish to locate Freelancer's directory yourself?"

By clicking "yes", freelancer.exe doesn't appear in any folder whereas it IS in the appropriate freelancer's folder.

I try to reinstall FLMM inside or outside the freelancer's folder and it does't work either.


Please, have you any suggestion? If this problem had already been solved anywhere here, I apologise .

Did you install Freelancer (the game) outside your regular program folder ?

Its freelancer.exe, I made a typing error

I installed FL in the regular folder : program files (x86)

I tried to reinstall but sadly it's not working better...:/
