new computer old alias

[Skellan]

I have a new computer (which is great as the other one was old and had senior moments) and I have got it all set up apart from my server alias. Is there a way to transfer my old alias to my new pc (I was quite fond of it) or do I need to have a new one?

if you dont refresh or even use the alias on the new computer then the old alias should work as long as you retain the same public ip address...

if you want you can edit the registry and set it here:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Fantasy Grounds\2.0]
"SessionKey"="firm ogre vast derro"

or you can edit this txt file and then rename as .reg and the double-click to import...

What about vanity aliases? I'd pay a couple of real dollars to be able to pick my own...

[Skellan]

Ha, yeah, that would be cool

i tried gaming the system using the reg hack but it didnt work.... :(
i set the alias to "you are all doomed" but no dice...

I'd set mine to Hideous Organ Market Scaffold. With Delta in front if we got five words.

That's pretty funny. Vanity aliases. What will you think of next?

I found it on the wish list
