Bug - character info gone

Post by Myrdyr »

I started playing Neversummer yesterday with my first character. I played for maybe a couple of hours before the connection/server quit on me and I was unable to reconnect. I was able to connect to other NWN servers, so just assumed that the server was down.

I logged in today and all my experience, gold, and items were gone, but I did have 25 job points and a journal entry about the jobs I had been doing. I dont know why my character got reset the way it did given I had saved multiple times when I was playing, rested multiple times, been to multiple locations, etc.

I'm not asking for anything, other than suggestions as how I can prevent this in the future.

Rest often, and use the book to save your char to the database.

A few people have had the same thing happen to their Ancient Ones characters, so it might be a problem specific to that faction: http://www.nsrealm.com/boards/viewtopic.php?t=715

Yes, I have read it. From the dates involved you are the only one to have it happen in about a year and a half. Unless we start having a rash of these again I would chalk up your experiance to a bad save during a server crash.
