The FAM determines where FL is installed by reading a registry key on the windows registry.
The key can be found at: HKLM/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Microsoft games/Freelancer/1.0, and its called AppPath
It should point to your freelancer installation directory. If it does not, then your installation might not have completed successfully. Change it to your current FL location if it isn't pointing to it.
' Wrote:gah, i ran into some bugs. I tried to add a new account from a file and it gave me this error:
Then, after I closed the error window, it let me add the new account. But, somehow in the process it deleted all my other accounts. I have them all backed up thankfully, but now FAM absolutely refuses to let me add them and gives me these errors:
I'm trying a clean install of FAM now to see if that helps.
Edit: Reinstalled FAM and now it works like a charm.
That happened because you didn't have write access to the dir where fam was installed. remember that the program *must* be run as an administrator. Otherwise, it won't work.
