when you make a frequent use of the single player - i suggest to install two versions of freelancer:

- install freelancer the normal way
- rename the folder to "freelancer_" or something
- copy paste your freelancer folder to get a "copy_of_freelancer"
- install discovery 4.85 on both versions - your multiplayer version with the basic settings, the open SP version with 1.8 billion credits ( its clientside anyway - but just to be sure )


now , every time you wish to play freelancer on the disco 24/7 server - you rename your openSP version of freelancer to "freelancer_" and your server multiplayer version to "freelancer" - when you wish to play OpenSP, you swap the names ... your shortcuts will use the linked version then.

that way you don t mess up the version and don t accidently mess up settings and get caught by the anti-cheat software after you tested things out.

that method requires another ~1.2 GB of free disc space - but HDD space isn t hard to come by i guess.

to mod yourself around, you can then freely modify the shiparch, goods, models etc. in your OpenSP version without messing up your normal FL version. - it worked for me during the closed beta.. its quick and uncomplicated.



@mjolnir:

turns out we just have different views of the matter. - no need to convince either of us of the correctness of the other one.
