Mod wont start?

Hello all,

I downloaded the "Freelancer Massive Addon 1.1" by Tygris and installed it to freelancer Mod Manager.

I activated the "FMA v1.1 Data", then tried to activate the "Freelancer Massive addon" in FLMM, but it came up with this :

"Error: FLMM has determined that 'Freelancer Massive Addon 1.1' won't properly activate.
Error: Unable to find dest 'movie_file = movies\MGS_Logo_Final.wmv'(...) in 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Freelancer\exe\freelancer.ini'"

I tried re-installing the mod, restored all back-ups and such, but it still says the same thing.

Any ideas on how to solve this one?

thanks,
sig

did you manually remove the starting movies from your freelancer.ini file?
do you have a 'no opening movies' mod running?

that error is saying that the opening movies have been disabled, and the MA mod is trying to change those lines.

Nah all the opening movies are enabled ( I presume you mean that one where Freeport 7 is destroyed by the Nomads ), and in FLMM, in the options the "Show splash screen at startup" option is ticked. I havent deleted any video files manually.

Do you think i could re-install FL and solve the problem?

Thanks,

Opening movies is DA, MS logo and then the history of FL. The Freeport 7 part is the storyline, so it would appear that FLMM may already have "disable opening movies" or something like that enabled. If not, a quick reinstall of FL would be a good start
