--- Comment #2 from Olivier F. R. Dierick <o.dierick at piezo-forte.be> ---
Hello,

The mod itself is freely available:
https://www.moddb.com/mods/crossfire

The base game can only be found on abandonware/piracy sites, AFAICT.

I've got the original CD released version.

I've followed the instruction on
https://swat-portal.com/forum/wcf/faq/#entry-31 to install the game and the
mod.

There was no visible issue with both installers.

After installing, when I launch Freelancer.exe, all I get is a black screen.

I get the same result with a fresh install of the base game + game patches that
used to work a long time ago.

I thought it was stuck at the intro video (Videos are WMV (WM ASF) format), but
installing winetricks quartz or removing the videos files gave the same black
screen.

@OP Can you explain how you did install the game (winetricks, DLL overrides,
workarounds, etc.)?

Regards.
