My only offline lvl 34+ character disappeared after my PC rebooted mid game and it is not coming back.
I have tried everything and it is still not showing in-game.
When creating another character a message pops up saying “Failed To Join Game” on OFFLINE play.
My game has become completely unplayable as I do not play online, just offline Singleplayer.
Do the character files still exist in their correct location?
This should be drive-probably C:\users\your login name for the machine\Saved Games\Diablo II Resurrected
Looks to be about 7 files, 5 of which are named using the character name (you may have more if you had multiple characters - I am assuming just one.)
If these are there, copy them somewhere else. Uninstall and delete everything D2:R. Reinstall. Move the files back to their original location.
If they are not present, then yes, your offline saved character was tickled.
Hi,
Thanks for trying to help.
I have the save files, I have tried what you suggested and it is still not showing up.
When I try to create another character with the same name, it says the name is already taken.
Same thing happened to me. My sorc dissapeared. She is still in the save files. And i can’t play offline games with any other character either. M surprised it’s still not fixed.
I’m experiencing the same issue. After a power failure this morning, my main character disappeared and I was unable to log in with any others. I cleared my save file and restored, but main is still gone. Shared stash was also deleted but I can log in with other characters and they retain their personal stashes. Just can’t my main back.
I’m experiencing this issue and it has been present since week one of the game. I have not heard any replies from bliZzard and it has not been fixed. The offline game is inplayable.
same prob char gone cant enter game with a new one
I had a similar issue. I logged off like normal with no crashes or power problems and next time I got online my character was gone from the list and I could not enter the game with any of my other offline characters ( i do not play online ). After looking around the forums I saw that some people had problems with a corrupt stash file so i copied and moved it out and deleted the file from the list. After that all my characters worked EXCEPT the one that disappeared. The save files for that character exist still but will not show in game. Not really sure what to do but I imagine its corrupt and will not be coming back.
Had the same issue. I ended up using a hex editor to examine the files, and it looks like my character’s “.d2s” file was corrupted, and contains only 0s now, which isnt the case for my other characters. In this case, I think there is nothing to do to recover the information, and the game needs the info in that file to load the character. Ive started backing up my characters save files every few games in case it happens again.
I have a similar situation. After a power failure i cant play offline(old and new characters). I can create a new offline character, but cant play him. I can play only online.
Character save file or the shared stash file are corrupted. You have to delete them or replace them with a backup when you made one.
Tkanks for help, i remove all files and start new game. Finally othis file was damaged: SharedStashSoftCoreV2.d2i, i lost all shared staff, but game work.
Sry for your lost. But be happy to play. We only can hope they fix it. A game that corrupt his own save files…never seen something like this before in 20 years Gameplay.
