FADDERALL Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 Background I have been playing with 3 friends on dedicated server. At Day 133. Went to dig up a treasure map in the snow. Riding motorcycle up snow covered hill and near the peak the bike started disappearing into the snow. Tried several times to go around, same result. Tried to get off bike and fell through the map, then popped up right in place next to bike. At this point the game froze and I could not move. I could enter inventory. I quit game and restarted. This is when the game began to hang up at "Creating Player" Other players can join the server no problem. Details of Game Game Time Day:133 13:30 Mode: Survival Vanilla Settings: Off Vanilla files: On Requires Mod: Off Game 7d2d Alpha 18.4 (b4) Multiplayer Vanilla files On Password protected game We had one mod that showed water and food on hud, but removed to no effect. EAC on **We updated to Alpha 19 Experimental a few days ago. But, we rolled back to 18.4 right away and everything has been working smoothly since. We have had no issue until today. I Tried The Following Creating a profile on my machine. No effect Joining another local game. Worked Creating a new game local. Worked Updated Graphics card. No effect Restarted Steam and PC. No effect Verified Local Files Through Steam. No Effect Had server admin turn off persistent profile. No effect Have admin login and try to teleport me while I am stuck in "Creating Player" screen. Did not work Questions Can I get this working without losing my progress? Can I join the server as a new player and is there a cmd or other way for admin to give me my level (and skill points)? Gamestage? Our server admin has a save point (about a week ago). Would restoring to that save point fix my issue? Client 7D2D loghttps://pastebin.com/czv6GYRY Server 7D2D log https://pastebin.com/r9FJPBKX Please Help. I love this game, but cannot deal with starting over or making all my buddies start over with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SylenThunder Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 Player data file is corrupted. Will need to delete files and start over. Restoring from a previous save could fix it, but you'd lose any progress since then. This is why I do backups every 2 hours on our servers.

FADDERALL Posted July 4, 2020 Author Share Posted July 4, 2020 Thank you SylenThunder. When you say "delete files and start over", do you mean me or everyone on the server? My buddies can get on the server and into the same game no problem. It is only my character that has a problem. Also, what files specifically? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SylenThunder Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 Your player files. They're stored in the Player folder of the save. Identified by your Steam-64 ID. For example, mine would be... 76561197990496105.ttp 76561197990496105.ttp.bak 76561197990496105.ttp.map The .map file can be left alone, but the other two must go/be replaced.

FADDERALL Posted July 4, 2020 Author Share Posted July 4, 2020 Ok. I assume these are on the server? Once I do this will my character be able to join the game existing game with my buddies? Will my character lose all progress, skill points, etc.? Is there a cmd that the server admin can use to give me a specific skill level and points to bring me back where I was? Thanks again.

SylenThunder Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Yes, that is on the server. You will be able to join afterwards. You will lose all character progress. There are server commands for giving your toon the exp to get it back to the same level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FADDERALL Posted July 5, 2020 Author Share Posted July 5, 2020 Thanks for the quick help SylenThunder. It worked and I am back in. But, of course as new player. Just curious, has anyone ever made a debug tool for the player files? Is it even possible to correct the corruption of the file? In searching for a solution, it seems many folks have had the same problem. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It kinda worked for changing some settings in a16, but was almost completely broken for a17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
