----------------------------------------------------------------

IF YOU ARE CRASHING AND SUCH WHEN PLAYING:

Make sure your computer meets the minimum requirements.
Make sure you are using the most recent version
Deactiviate and then reactivate the mod
Make sure your freelancer directory is not read only
Last Resort - Delete, NOT uninstall, your FL directory and then reinstall. Then reapply TNG
Last Resort - Delete all files in your mp account and sp save-game folder
(old mp accounts / savegames that were created with an earlier version WILL crash your computer)

SERVER ADMINS:

If people complain of crashes, ask what version they created their character in. If earlier have them create a new
character, as explained above, old chracters / save-games WILL crash your server.

For 1.55 I recommend a last p-wipe, future versions SHOULD be compatible with these new characters
Also make sure you if you are HOSTING, delete / move all your sp save-games.

REMEMBER: People equipped with a hull upgrade who use nanobots when they die WILL crash the server every time.

Is this the definitive download? By this i mean do i need to download any patches, any mission fixes to add to this download or does the 1.55 account for all previous bugs?

If your behind me it's cos i let you, If your infront of me your already dead!

This should be it. I hope it is, cuz I've been getting out of Freelancer lately and this just might be the thing to get me back into it.
