Download the bini lite editer and put in the folder of the ini file you want to edit. Click and drag the file onto the bini editer to decode. Bini lite

Try using the Freelancer SDK v1.3 make by Louva-Deus.

FreelancerSDK is set of decompressed ini files ((over 1200)) from the original game of Freelancer, you can use this package to make your mod making life easier since it contains fixes for all the major errors in the original source. It also fixes the errors caused from decompression using bini.

Freelancer SDK has it's own install program so just install it, then use wordpad to open and edit the files you want to modify.

Don't make any errors in your editing. One little error and the game can crash.
EDIT carefully and backup your work each time before you begin to edit again after you test your work.
