When saving Infocards with Fledids after using explorer make sure your files are not writeprotectet. I needed about 2 hours until i found out that the infocards.dll is writeprotectet and thats why fledids can't write the string. There's no errormessage showing up.
Make sure you are using a free ids string
1. Disable writeprotection for the whole freelancer directorie
2. Find out the first free ids string
- Thats easy just open fledids
- in the field ResID to ids_name/ids_info choose InfoCards.dll
- now find the first free Resource ID
Example: in my InfoCards.dll it is Resource ID: 710
- push convert
- copy the converted id
Example Res.ID 710 is converted to 66246
- paste it into ids_info and push Get ids_info if the field is blank you are to far
- repeat the first steps going down with the Res.ID (710 after that probably 600)
until you find the last filled entrie
- enter you InfoCard an Res.ID after that number
Example last filled is Res.ID 709 take 710
- why??? I discoverd that leaving blank fields, often causes Freelancer to crash or
it won't find the right string
- write down the Res.ID every new Infocard had to follow. don't leave free
strings.
Thats how i make new Infocards. I hope it helped you.

The infocards are working now. But I still don´t know why the changed files from the EQUIPMENT folder cause the crashing. Can someone tell me that
Another thing. I´ve added 6 buyable power plants, 3 buyable tractor-beams and
a buyable cloaking device to my mod. But in FLE they are showed up in the
weapons-list and not in the parts-list where they belong to.

What you need to do is start over from scratch.
Make a folder for your work
Make a version 1.00.000
make ONE Change and see if that works right.
if if does,
copy what you have to a backup folder and make version 1.00.001
then make another change and see if that works.
if you make one that does not work, you can back up a version.
If you are attempting to use FLMM Scripting before the mod is finished...Stop it.
