Tools Menu -> Library.
pick "FC" tab.
Click "Update List" then Click "Yes"
then after that's done, click "Download"

this will give you all the ships that people have contributed to FCOL.

I'm getting two errors right now that you can ignore:
"Problem downloading the file General/General_LAF_Squadron.def"
"Problem downloading the file General/General_LF_Fleet.def"

Aside from that, it should update your library with all the ships that are in FCOL. When you add a ship, and it's not one of the few starter ships, you'll have to pick the "Library" tab to access these other ships.

Yeah, I figured it out 5 minutes later when I was playing with making a SFB game and it actually shows that under "library". Maybe they should put it in for the Fed Commander Library tab?

Same here, I couldn't see the actual SSDs, I managed to figure some bits out by lookinig that the weapon status screen.

let me double check how to add ships to the library:
#1 scan in the card(?) for the background image?
#2 fill in each block with what it is.
#3 save it and do what to post it?

Mojo,
To create a ship card for the library. The steps are pretty much:

1) Contact me.
2) I send you the graphic
3) You fill in the boxes.
4) You send me the completed definition
5) I post it to the library.

http://www.sfbonline.com/show_results.j ... nt=fedcom1

So for wins and losses go to the above URL and click on the "Tournament Report Results" link. Make sure that "Federation Commander Online Tournament #1" is selected in the drop down, enter your callsign and password and select whether you won or lost and the page will be updated and Emails will go out reporting the win/loss.

So have we fixed the updating problem?

Oh, and FUCHSIA? Really? That's the best we can reward a winner with? I'm almost tempted to throw the game so I never have to see my name in that color. *barf*

You will want to make sure your library is up to date. In the client, click tools>library. Then click the FC tab, then click Update List at the bottom. This may take a while, click yes on the next box that comes up. After another while it will say Done Checking at the very bottom. Then click the Download button, and this should grab all the ships you don't have, or that have updates, etc. If that doesn't work, let us know.

Uh oh...

Two battles on the same day? That might cause the Client to go down :wink:

Just Joking. Hopefully We'll finish our battle in time to watch yours :)
