Does anyone still use .ADF files?

I'm pretty sure you can just export them from launchpad in xml but if not it's still a really easy file to write.

It's basically just a couple of <accountlist> and <account> headers that identify the lines that need to be read by the program, then I guess stuff like

Code:

<name>Account</name>
    <code>cb8fddca-f398feb9-b1954a53-801ce2a2</code>
    <signature>95a127fb-c65aad6d-58a73cef-95717c18</signature>
    <comments>Account comment</comments>

how do you create them in XML?

On Discovery Launchpad, go to the "Accounts" tab, select Export and choose to export it to XML. Image for reference.

I see good you can export those then, so you wont loose them. I still think reg keys are better as no programs are needed to make them other than regedit.
I had a problem with ADF before as I lost some accounts when I exported them but were corrupted during the export process but I did not know about it until I tried to reimport them on a new system and they were corrupted so lost all this ships.

Reg files are bomb proof

you sirs need to divide all my internets between yourselves!

build this on notepad:

Code:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Freelancer\1.0]
"default"="0"
"MPAccountName"="XXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXX"
"MPAccountNameSig"="XXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXX"
"FIRSTRUN"=dword:00000001

replace XXXXXXXX with your codes
save as .reg

or regedit has an export option = easier

i definitely +1 this

/\ /\ /\ this (or launchpad create account option) are best if you have a code, but don't know what to do with it

alternatively, put them directly in place on regedit
