Transfering Multiplayer Character/Account

Hello again!

I searched around a bit, but to no avail, could not find my answer...so i'll try posting a new topic:

Is there any possibility that i can transfer a multiplayer character(/account/profile)? Basically the situation is this, my brother is installing a copy of Freelancer onto his own computer, and wants to keep his character he made on another computer. His ship, funds, guns, equipment, etc...

Is there anyway to possibly do this? He has his own Freelancer disc; we tried to go to the "My Documents/My Games/Freelancer...etc..." but could not find a mutliplayer folder there. We also looked thru the main program folder as well, but got no luck!

Any information or help would be much appreciated!

Thanks, Klaus Steiner.

If you have access to the FL server computer it should be quite simple.

- Start the freelancer server as normal
- Go to EDIT -> ACCOUNTS...

This should bring up all stored chars within the server, and their serial #'s. replace his chars serial # so that it matches the fresh install on his comp. with any luck he'd be able to log in on his computer now. see how that goes.

Your multiplayer identity on all servers is the account ID. Go to Start, Programs, Microsoft Games, Freelancer, Examine My Account ID, and copy down the code. When you first enter multiplayer on the new computer, enter the exact same account ID.

Hi all

We have two computers here, running Freelancer, and my brothers and I like to play multiplayer. Is there any way to swap MP IDs between installed copies of Freelancer? We can't always use the same computer.
