Hi everybody

I have a problem when i try to play multiplayer.

When i go onto multiplayer it has no ID so i go onto the startmenu and click on view my MP account and it says this:

My Freelancer MP Account ID
<NOT FOUND>
This is your account ID. Don't lose it! If you lose it, you will lose all of the characters on all of the servers on which you have played Freelancer.

You do not have a Freelancer multiplayer account.

If somebody could help it would be much appreciated

Ok i have an idea.....

If you have Windows ME or/and have a firewall and have this problem please post in and it might be the problem.

But i do need people to post otherwise this is obviously not the problem.

I'v got it anybody having this problem it is the registry there is something wrong with the registry because i was reading the myflaccountid in the EXE folder and it says this
<SCRIPT language="VBScript">
On Error Resume Next
installKey=""
statusText=""
regKey= "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MicrosoftGames\Freelancer\1.0\"
regKeyBeta="HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MicrosoftGames\Freelancer Beta\3.0\"

sub window_OnLoad
Set WS=CreateObject("Wscript.Shell"

On Error Resume Next
installKey=WS.RegRead(regKey&"InstallKey"

statusText = "Your account is properly installed"
If Err Then
Err=false
installKey = WS.RegRead(regKeyBeta&"InstallKey"

if Err Then
installKey = "<Not found>"
statusText = "You do not have a Freelancer multiplayer account"
Else
HEADER.innerText="My Freelancer Beta MP Account ID"
End If.

Now the install key in that registry is not there....but when i added installkey in the registry the number i put in there came up in the examine my account id and it says
Account successfully installed or summit like that post back to tell me if it works.

i tried this and it does make the examineid prog return the number you put in the key, but it doesnt make it valid for multiplayer. so its still no good. perhaps if you used the format of an account id number it would work - i just used random numbers, maybe it should be more along the lines of xxxx-xxxx-xxxx etc or something
