ADF = Awesome Data Format

I didn't know there is an alternative to adfs, honestly.
All files I have ever been given were adfs and all files I have ever shared are adfs.

Sorry, Alley. Smile I know, we suck! Big Grin

I use both .ADF and .REG formats and I also use the Freelancer Account Manager v1.0. by Korrd.

I can see why .xml is better. Following files were exported using Discovery Launchpad:

.adf
Code:

It's true that XML is better than ADF, however quite a lot of people still use them (including me). And it's always a good idea to have an alternative in case something goes wrong.

@Outro

my version is even more lightweight

Code:
<!--Launcher Accounts File, do not edit unless you know what you're doing. This file is intended to be an import/export file.-->
<AccountsList>
  <account code="ebd28014-222f01f0-30cbdd48-dd619acf" signature="ebcceb10-cc9e0e81-eb1f5071-1b3a06f4" description="a" favorite="False">blank10</account>

If a proper announcement is made that the new launcher won't support ADF files, then we can all, given a time window, export our ADF accounts to XML.

no no it's ok I'll add adf import

it's just pretty annoying to do but I really thought they were gone by now, so making this thread was a good thing.
