My son wanted to play through the campaign but it does not work with Discovery installed. It skips cinematics when you start a new game and the story seems to be completed.
Is there an easy way for him to play through it or do I need to uninstall Discovery?
You should be able to play if you download a new instance of freelancer. I recommend downloading the HD mod for Freelancer though so it can go with newer resolutions.
Benefit here is that HDE save games aren't wiped by Discovery, as they are kept in a different folder:
Documents > My Games > FreelancerHD (instead of "Freelancer", which Discovery wipes on launch)
Hope this helps!

Excellent write up! This should be pinned somewhere!
I did uninstall discovery on a secondary PC so he could do the campaign, but being able to switch between them would be ideal!
