Could someone please help?!

Unless someone (usually the mod author) creates files for IFSO that recognizes all the NEW ships, weapons, engines, etc. placed in the game, then IFSO will have problems with it. You could try doing it yourself, going through the IFSO error log but that is tedious - due to Epsilon I know!

Well I have no idea about moding so I think I'll have a problem with that. This sucks.

You could also try using the IFSO Gamedata creator program- I found it here. It added most of the stuff from my mod, and there's a tutorial here on how to create gamedata files as well, try doing a search from the home page on 'gamedata'

I ran my server with a mod for quite some time without the relevant IONCROSS files and didn't get that problem. IONCROSS just comes up with (unknown ship) or (unknown system), but it never locked up. I think you need to look elswhere for the solution to your problem. Without more info or even looking over your shoulder while the problem is occuring it is difficult to know what is going on.

WHat your issue is is probably that the Server Window name does nt match what is set up in IonCross. This will hang Ioncross everytime.

First, go and start your server without IonCross. Look at the Windows name and write it down.

Now, close it down and launch Ioncross. WHen it asks you the first yes or no question, select no.

I beleive it is under configuration part of Ioncross where it allows you to put in the Server Window name. Type in exactly what the server window nameis. This should corrcet your issue.

While we are on the subject of IONCROSS, can anyone tell me why I am getting

Run-Time error '62':
Input past end of file

This is the first time I have come accross this one and IONCRSS hangs because of it. I have tried reinstalling IONCROSS but to no avail. Is this a player file error?

I figured it out in the end it turned out to be a players' char. I presume it was the use of weird chars in their name. I deleted chars using strange chracters in their names and it worked again. maybe someone could shed some light on this.

I have the same problem, It doesnt let me open the characters tab, so i just moved all of the characters in the accts/multiplayer folder to another location. It still isnt working.
Also why does FLExplorer keep crashing every time i try to load an existing mod. would it be something to do with the fact that the mod is scripted?
Im also having a problem with FLED-IDS, how do i cure "BeginUpdateResourceFailed" when i try to save an IDS.
Also, why does FLIDREF give completely WRONG IDS numbers?

<SIGH>

If there are such things as gods, they are probably conspiring against me.

does the mod you are running change the version of freelancer. because i had a problem when i stared with epsilon in the configuration tap under server name if you dont have the correct name in there its going to freeze up for instance im running epsilon so it says this FLServer - Version 3.11 Build 13 - FLServer. now if the server does have the name of fl server version you will have a problem. i think i was running 1.0 thats the default if you are running something else and changes the number you have to change it in the server.

nope it doesnt, oh yeah i gotta ask how to do that?

Ive sorted out the first problem with IONCROSS with a fresh install(probably a corrupted character).
