I remember getting the original SFBOnline CD at Origins 99, and I think it started in the fall after that.

I was thinking that myself, around '99- '00, I know I got on pretty much right away.

By Gregg Dieckhaus (Gdieck) on Saturday, September 13, 2014 - 05:43 pm: Edit

Steve is right, it was Origins 99
In fact the files on the CD he mentions are dated 6/29/1999

Hey Paul!

Almost done with the Sparrowhawks. Question: What is an FSP? (Just a guess, but it looks like a Fed conversion of an SP.)

Just wondering how I should title it.

By Shawn Hantke (Shantke) on Monday, October 20, 2014 - 07:02 pm: Edit

R11.134 FSP Romulan Fast Sparrowhawk -Module R11

Ahh, totally spaced that one. (Don't use the fast ships much.)

By Patrick H. Dillman (Patrick) on Saturday, January 31, 2015 - 10:51 am: Edit

Paul, Just a reminder that I'm ready for more ships defs and artwork to help with the 3rd Gen SSD's.

By Patrick H. Dillman (Patrick) on Monday, April 13, 2015 - 03:17 pm: Edit

Paul, ready for more ships defs when you are.

Paul can you set up a RAT 45 topic.
Deadline to sign up should be 2 weeks from when you get the page up. Use the same rules as the previous RAT

Thanks!
Gregg

Paul can you use my post in the RAT 45 topic to create a tree?

Thanks!
Gregg

Yup. I will work on it.

Paul,
I had to down load SFBOL due to my computer crashing couple of week sago.

My pw now does not allow me to log in except as a demo player.

Help please ?



Thanks

Cheers
Frank

Frank,
Did you remember to uncheck the "Demo Account" box in the Login window?

By Francois Lemay (Princeton) on Saturday, May 30, 2015 - 11:30 pm: Edit

Yep

By Francois Lemay (Princeton) on Sunday, May 31, 2015 - 06:26 am: Edit

Paul,
Is pw for BBS same as SFBOL ?

By Francois Lemay (Princeton) on Sunday, May 31, 2015 - 06:38 am: Edit

Paul,
All is well again.
Sheap helped me out !
He pointed me in the right direction.

Thanks.

Cheers
Frank

The new World Championship Tournament should not be referred to as the Platinum Hat; near as I can tell it should be titled "Platinum Tournament."

By William T Wilson (Sheap) on Friday, September 11, 2015 - 09:55 pm: Edit

I think it's time for the new campaign to get its own topic. I'd like to call it
"Warp 21 Jump Street: War Against the ISC and Andromedans"

By Paul Franz (Andromedan) on Saturday, September 12, 2015 - 08:51 am: Edit

Topic is created

I'm getting an error message when I try to start SFBOL on my computer. It reads "JVM could not be started. The main method may have thrown an exception"

Thoughts and advice?

I've reloaded Java already, no change

By Paul Franz (Andromedan) on Sunday, September 20, 2015 - 06:46 am: Edit

Brendan,
Try uninstalling the client and re-installing it.

If that does not work, what version of Java are you installing?

By Sebastian Palozzi (Sebastian) on Sunday, September 20, 2015 - 09:02 am: Edit

I have the same problem. I've uninstalled and re-installed but same problem.
The Jave version is Version 8 Update 60
I'm using Windows 10

By Brendan Lally (Tartan_Army) on Sunday, September 20, 2015 - 08:12 pm: Edit

I have the identical systems as Sebastian. I had one moment of joy after a reboot, but since then its repeating the previous error

By Brendan Lally (Tartan_Army) on Sunday, September 20, 2015 - 08:23 pm: Edit

I do a full reboot and it works. hmmmm. Must have been user error. My apologies
