Also I uncompressed the weapon_equip.ini to a txt file but do I have to make it back into an ini file to make it work if so could you please tell me how to do this at the moment I just have a txt file and a backup ini file of weapon_equip.

Thx

Plz someone help me

I tried modding the startupcash for when you startup mp..... i changed it from


money = %%money%%

to

money = 999999999


do you have to keep the %%?

Heretic

you do not have to do anything to the file after you uncompress it just make sure the file extension ends in .ini
example weapon_equip.ini
if you have a file that ends in txt change it to ini

how do i do that?

Heretic

666Heretic "do you have to keep the %%" - no just change it to -
money = 999999999
"how do i do that" if you mean how do I change the files name just right click on the file and choose rename then change the extension (the last three letters)
from .txt to .ini - example - weapon_equip.ini - then save it.

Slick your game is crashing because you make a mistake editing the file
it only takes a small error even a missed space. If you cant find the mistake ask for someone here to look at your file.

Ok heres the deal guys

I reinstalled Freelancer beacuse I thought it would be the best thing to do, so I could start a fresh after I did this I then downloaded BiniQDU v1.1 and installed it, after I did this then decompressed to weapon_equip.ini to a txt file and left it in the folder at it was originally in (I made a backup copy of this first). Now when I run Freelancer it does not even get to the main menu it crashes back to the desktop and asks to send an error report to Microsoft (I never click yes)

Could some please tell me how to use BiniQDU v1.1 propely this is the only thing I can think of the I'm doing wrong, so if you could please tell me how to decompress an ini I would owe you many thanks

thx (just for reading this)

sry guys I forgot to mention that I did NOT edit a single thing in the weapon_equip.ini or the weapon_equip.txt and yes after I decompressed it I did rename the file weapon_equip.ini.

Ok guys I have just replaced the file I decompressed with the original file and the game does not crash

This shows that it must be the file that I decompressed causing the problem.

sry guys but one more quick qusetion

I can use one of my computers to mod and it works fine and I use windows 98
but then when I try it on my other computer it does not work and this computer also uses windows 98

The problem is when I try and install BiniQDU v1.1 it comes up with an error saying "A required .DLL file, MSVBVM60.DLL, was not found" and then when I press ok it comes up with "Cannot start main setup program! (Createprocess() returned error code 0x00000485H)"

Plz can you help me

Alright, I'm a noob with modding and I'm not ashamed to admit it, thats why I ask this, where can I download a mod tutorial?
