Can't Load Character
« on: January 21, 2010, 01:38:58 pm »
Hi All,

I've been playing PS again after a long break.  I've been using my main character.  But on my way to BD, the portal was incomplete and wouldn't let me pass.  So I tried to relog.  But after logging back on,  I could't start that character!  It would go to the main opening (Hydlaa) screen, but not load.

I tried loading my other characters, and they all load fine.

{I also tried doing a --repair, and found out the hard way that that doesn't work (see Topic on Do Not Use Repair).  And then reinstalled.}

After reinstalling, I still could not load my main character.

Please help!  I don't want to lose my main character.    :(

Oh, I should add, the notification window (where the MOTD is displayed) has:
    Loading...
    Requesting connection

But the screen just stays there.

Thank you Rigwyn, I got help there -- Sarva found the answer.  It seems it was the "Background Loading" set to "World" in the Graphics settings that was the cause.

Will miss that though; it sure sped up the transitions between maps.
