Importing my character from SP to MP

Im sure its been asked, but is it possible to import my SP character on to an MP server ? Seems a shame to waste it.

Ive already looked. it has one little passage on creating a character on a server, and thats it.

So does that mean it cant be done ?

It has been said several times...but I can't locate them

However...

You can do it....but it borders on cheating....

Save your game in the Autosave.fl file.


Copy the Autosave.fl from Documents/My Games/Freelancer/Accounts/SP to My Documents/My Games/Freelancer/Accounts/MP

You can, but don't have to, rename the file to one that was already created, or just leave it as the Autosave.fl. It will read it either way. (I have tested this, as a curiosity, but I don't use my SP character in the MP)

However there IS a downside to doing this, and people will be able to tell right off that you did it.

The name will be "Trent"

Before you ask....There currently is no way to fix this, until a savegame editor is developed.

This is quite definately cheating. Everyone else on the server will be creating characters from scratch.

Please don't do this. The game is already easy and fruitless enough without everyone starting with a maxed-out Trent.
