Dear fellow adventurers,
During release, there were quite some issues with the online servers, hence I started my adventure on single player, holy grailing… Now around 60% of the grail, my 91 sorceress simply vanished after the game crashed during load.
All files are still present under “saved games” (.ctl, d2s, key, ma0, ma1, ma2, ma3, ma4, map) and the game tells me there is a character with the name existing when I try to make another sorceress with the same name…
Please help/advise in restoring my 91 character to resume my holy grail, as I don’t want to grind my way back…
Kind regards,
Reaction

Restore from your last backup. Didn’t do file backups like you are supposed to? Oh, well, you are SOL. Delete the character files and start over.
- try to repair the game
- If still no char there the save file is corrupted and your character is lost.
- Try to make a new character if log in is not possible u have to delete your shared stash file because it is corrupted too.
- Now it should be possible to play again with a new character and with a new empty shared stash.
But pls save your files before trying this.

Same thing just happened to my game.
Playing offline and game caused some form of freeze of my PC. Only way to resolve it ended up being a hardware shut off and reboot of my PC. Got back on bnet and started the game. To find it treating the game start as if I just Installed the game. With calibration of game options and all that. Clicked the Offline character tab and my Paladin was gone. Not happy making bug that.

What exactly needs to be backed up? Character files? Shared stash files? Which files or folders exactly?
