Yeh sorry for the kneejerk post, it seems that now I've installed the MFM again and put the latest shipnames cfg in commander all the info is now showing up. Have no idea why it didn't before but now I've updated my personnel file the ones that previously had no info have now been rectified. Weird, but it works, so just a quirk I guess.
Currently on my next patrol so will recheck things once I'm back dockside.
