Macharius Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 I spy FMRTE. You been changing any names? Because FMRTE will effect other player names also. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpy07 Posted January 22, 2012 Author Share Posted January 22, 2012 Yeah i changed a Regens first name to Gary on fmtre.....so here is where the problem lies it seems then! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
phnompenhandy Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Yeah i changed a Regens first name to Gary on fmtre.....so here is where the problem lies it seems then! Yes. I think FMRTE works like this: to change a player/staff name (first or surname) the new name MUST be in the database already (which 'Gary' is) AND the number of letters in the name must be the same (thus, in your case, the old name MUST have been exactly 4 letters). If not, you screw up and every player who had the old first name is now 'Gary'! Oops! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaddy101 Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 A lesson learnt it seems.. Why didn't you just use a nickname in the first place? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
