Reclaiming characters on a new computer - Seekersixone - 07-12-2011
Okay, so I got a new computer. YAAAAAY. However, I don't know how to move all of my characters from the old computer to the new computer. BOOOOO.
Can someone give me advice?

Did you use freelancer account manager on the old computer?
If so, you can use FAM's export feature (Accounts-> Export to file) to export all your accounts to a single FAM file. Then, on the new computer, import the file (Accounts->import from file) and you will have all your accounts.
There's probably ome other way to do it too, if you don't use FAM, but i wouldn't know.

I don't use FAM, no, but I appreciate the help, Jolee. Keep on doing your Gray Jedi/Dark Lord thing.
And thank you, Ingenious.

If you don't have the account IDs you can always beg an admin to set the movechar code on your accounts. You will need to know the exact names of the ships for that though. IE
bobjoe1, bobjoe2, and boboe3 are on 1 account. amy, amies, and art are on account 2. Please change the movechar codes to ILOVEYOU.
Of course it is up to the admin if he wants to do the work for you, and you'd have to have the cash to move the characters to new accounts. I'd advise once you have them, use FAM or FL Launchpad to export the accounts and store them on a flash drive, email them to yourself, or keep them on another computer. Doing all of those three doesn't hurt either.
Good luck.
