Invalid Character Part 2

xxcyperxx · Post by **xxcyperxx** » Thu Dec 07, 2006 8:22 pm

Hi, sorry to be a bother, but it happened again. I tried to log in (after releveling from 6th to 8th) and it gave me the "removed Illegal spells - invalid character."

What is the fix? Can I start a new Sorc without Prodigy and get my exp and gold back? Or at least my EXP? I'm not usually this whiney, but I've spend the last 2 days recovering from my exp loss only to lose it again due to a game error. Admins? DM?

Thanks for your help.

I'm no DM, but I'm pretty well versed on the technical side of NWN(2) and "enforce legal character" checks.

Could you please give me the full run down of what happened to you, in as much detail as possible. Leave nothing out. I can't promise I can help, but I can (probably) figure out what went wrong.

If the problem is unfixable for your current character that will be up to the DM's, however, it would be good to identify the exact problem first.

Also, if you have any files in your override folder(s) (in my documents/nwn and nwn installation dir), include that information.

I am a level 7 Sorc.

Upon creation I took Spellcasting Prodigy as a feat.

I was able to level up to 8 without removing any spells, but adding them like everyother wiz/sorc, but for some reason, whenever I go to level 8, log out, then try to log back in, i get the player login refused.

What is your race?
What starting stats? Did you pump charisma at 4 and 8?

Did you ever remove spells throughout your character's development?

What other feats did you take?

Are you a pure sorcerer?

I realize all of these questions may not be relevant, but it will help identify the problem.

I'm downloading him right now. Do you have Instant Messenger? If so, what are the details?

It is because of the Spellcasting Prodigy feat not working well with the spell progression, I am certain.

I need to catch you online so we can help remake/rebuild your character.

I tried to log in today with my level 7 sorcerer and I received the same message

.
I took the spellcasting prodegy feat at level 1.
If I remember correctly I exchanged 1 first level spell at level 6: I ditched burning hands in favour of grease, nothing illegal or unusual.
My IGN is Maankin, character Gerald Stormbreaker.
This is my first and only character, and I'm fond of him.
