Lua - Nil value error - can't play any chars

#1 Post by Dark_Hippie »

Hello.
I can't seem to use any of my characters now or create a new one. I attempted to load up 3 add-ons from the Zomnibus pack. I disabled them, then deleted them but it didn't help. I don't mind losing the chars or having to do a hard reset on the game. Oh I also deleted my world file cuz I thought I read that might help on a similar error during my search for unbroken-ness. mai bad, if it was a dumb thing to do. Sorry! Thanks for trying. If there's a full reset somewhere, just point me to it.

edit: i restored the world.teaw file from recycle bin but nothing changed. I still get to 100% on the loading bar and hang. Attempting to start a new char repeats the error at nearly every key press, but not when selecting race, or class.

My OS:
Windows 7
I think this is what I need to paste:

Fixed so far by downloading a fresh 1.3, unzipping then playing from there. May try copying entire folder to where the previous broken install was. I'll leave this for others to see if they have similar issues but the thread can be mod nuked if not needed. Thanks.
Ticket will be marked as resolved.
