I tried to transfer my character to another server, I am not over encumbered, nor in a clan, I get an error message saying it failed, has anyone else had this problem and knows the fix to it?
not a good idea to try this now, wait a week
Yeah. Definitely wait a week or so, It’s a complicated bit of programming and lots can go wrong. I would expect a patch or hotfix soon like most games do after a major update.
(and thanks for posting @Petalsong )
Greetings,
Thank you for your report.
- You can only transfer one character at a time. If you have already exported a character it must be imported before another character can be exported.
- After you successfully import a character, there is a cool-down period during which you are unable to transfer another character- 24 hours for PvE and 7 days for PvP.
You can read more here:
If your case doesn’t fit any of the suggestions above, can you provide us with a short video or screenshots of the issue?
Thanks in advance.
This is what happens when I try, I haven’t tried doing it with any other character either! And also thanks guys, I understand there will be problems when a patch releases, so I will wait if it continues.
Thanks for the screenshot.
Can you share one showing your inventory?
By any chance is it over 100% of weight?
Could it be your trying to take thralls on the transfer. Just asking. I don’t think you can take them can you ??
I didn’t see anything about it on the transfer instructions or patch notes, so I am not sure.
I’m not sure either. It does say though after you transfer you loose your buildings and thralls, so that’s why I asked.
Yeah, I figured it just meant placed items/thrall, so we will see soon hopefully.
We will reach out to you in private to ask a few more questions regarding your account.
Please check your notifications and DM’s.
You do not need to take thralls with you, just take 300 Dragonpowder
I haven’t tested it myself yet, but maybe the server already has your character?
I guess you checked the server you want to go to first - so you created the character there.
Try to get rid of this character first:
- Go to the server you were checking / server you want to go to.
- Select the menu option to create a new character there.
- As soon as you are asked for the gender of the character, press Esc and log out.
- Then log in to the character you want to transfer - and try to do it.
I had this issue earlier but the problem was I was trying to take placeable thralls, crafters were fine but the fighters/archers/dancer/horse weren’t, the moment i put it back in a chest it allowed me to transfer.
This didn’t work for me. I had fighter thralls in my inventory, ditched them, but still couldn’t upload.
Then I tried to transfer my character without gear - didn’t work, so it wasn’t that either.
Then I tried to transfer naked - that worked.
So the problem must’ve been one of the worker thralls I was carrying.
I figured out my problem, I had a horse and a t4 asura alchemist, I couldn’t take those. So certain thralls won’t let you transfer it seems.
Are You sure horse and t4 asura alchemist was cauing the problem? They were in your inventory, not placed yet in world?
If that’s true that’s bad that Funcom didn’t put it in information.
It’s probably a bug though.
