Strange system crash

Some systems keep causing a CTD when entering. At first i thought that this my be caused by my mod. So I completely deleted all related files from my mod directory and tried it again. But the systems keep crashing.

Might want to check that all of the encounters are in the encounters folder. If u have the entry but the file is missing then it'll crash as u enter the system.

1. Try FLScan - it's in the downloads section
2. Try a clean install of FL and check the game works on it's own without the mod, then try again
3. Try the thread titled "bug crashes and fixes" - there are links from the big stickies in the noob coders forum (or whatever it's called again).

To FLScan, it crashes all the time

Well, u could try looking at the Flspit, maybe that will give u an idea of where the trouble is.

How exactly does FLScan crash all the time? Do you have the latest version of the scanner, which decrypts encrypted ini files on the fly (a reason it used to crash, a long time ago) - it also generates the shortest system paths these days too, and more. Are you using the latest version of the scanner?

Well, I have the version from the latest "copilation of FL goodies" and it just hangs when checking some specific files. Strangly it seems to be checking all files everytime even if I have unchecked some parts.

You might check here . AFAIK 1.3 is the latest version

Maybe you could post the last 5-10 lines of your FLSpew file after the crash happens? That would be the easiest way to figure it out...

Well there is a problem. i don´t get the FLspew file. The point is that there is a CTD but the process Freelancer.exe is still running

The spew file is located here:

C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR PROFILE NAME HERE\Local Settings\Application Data\Freelancer

By the way, you'll need to allow hidden files/folders to be viewed, or you may not be able to find it. If you play the game a lot, this file will be huge and could take a minute to open.

Might want to give FLSpit a try too, it'll reduce all the useless stuff out of it.

Did you manage to find the FLSpew file at least? Try doing a search - just remember to enable hidden folders to be viewed.

>es, I´ve found it!
