My character was invalidated...

#1 Post by Delmuir »

I had a character who was just inexplicably invalidated... or at least when I tried to put gear into the vault, it said I couldn't because it was invalidated. I didn't use dev mode and I know of no other way to invalidate a character so... maybe I messed up or... happen to anyone else?

Character counts as invalidated due to 3 primary reason:

1. Cheat mode on when loading the save (game notifies you with a popup)

2. Using an addon that is not uploaded to te4.org (usually only the case if you're developing an addon/testing an addon in development)

3. The server couldn't establish a connection to your client when you loaded the save. This is usually what happens when people inexplicably become invalidated: the save was loaded during a personal or server-end connection hiccup (notably every 2 hours, the server resets and there is a window of few second to a minute where this happens)

If it is case 3, then simply reloading the save should fix it. If it doesn't, please send the save over here and I'll take a looksie at some point after waking up

Ha ha, I should have been more patient... I just deleted it and moved on. I'm willing to bet it was #3.

Thanks a lot. It's no big deal. I'm just happy it's known.
