Problem with one of my characters...

I wanna start off by saying that I love your guy's monster mash server, but I ran into a bit of a problem today. I know that you can have multiple characters on the server by simply changing the character name in the ut2004 settings. My brother decided to do this and played a few rounds on a different name, no problem.

About a half hour after he finished, I decided to play a few rounds and switched back to the name I was using: Lifesbløød. I joined the server and it started me off with a fresh level 25 character with none of the stat points distributed.

Before that my character was level 43, so I know it wasn't too terribly high, but I really would like it if I didn't have to start over again (I've restarted my character 3 times already to get better builds). Is there some way to check if my character is still there, or am I screwed?

Make sure you are using the _exact_ same characters in your name. I noticed that you are using non-ASCII characters for the 'o'. This may cause an issue if it wasn't the same character as used previously. It is very strict about this, in an effort to keep the RPG configs distinct for each user.

If you ask *very* nicely, someone may be able to identify how you were originally setup. But it would be at their discretion. No guarantees.

Good luck.

Snaggle.

I'm almost positive that I'm using the same name, 98% sure. But just to check, could one of the mods please identify the character I was using? Pretty please with sugar on top? jk

Thanks in advance

I'm almost 98% sure your brother reset your stats .

No... my brother used a completely different name than I did, so he never even had access to my character to reset it.

Lifesb£løød is how you have it, with the funny B as well as the o's.

Please remember your name.

I see several variations of your name on file. Please write it down if you can't remember what it is.

Thanks.

Thank you! The £ in the name does not show up in game so when I pasted it in it just looked like Lifesbøød, so I added a regular l. I had no idea the character was still there.
