Recover Deleted Chars ?
Hi there ;)
Long story short : - I started playing p99 early 2020, it took me like 5mn to get addicted again to the game :) - I mainly played a bard, she was lvl 29, very nicely stuffed, I spent a lot of time on twinking her, playing sometimes solo, but most of the times in group - all the feelings were back in no time :D - But when the covid situation went uncontrolled IRL, I had to stop playing. Understand that I didn't want to stop, but working in an hospital, I had to make a choice as I didn't want to spend my spare time playing EQ when my colleagues needed me IRL. I knew I wouldn't be strong enough to not launch the game, so during august 2020 I decided to erase everything. I kept my accounts, but deleted all my chars, including my bard. And to be sure I would forget them all, I gave all of their hard earned equipement and money to random people in EC - I am not complaining, this was a great afternoon, and oh boy everyone was happy lol - My poor Syleen Black dissapeared mostly poor and naked (but with her Deceiver mask and her two EBW) :D - Today the situation is slowly coming back into control, and I start to have a bit of spare time once again. I would love to play EQ but think I won't be able to spend again the dozens of hours on a character again so... you saw me coming : my question is simple : Do you think there is a way to get back my deleted chars (at least my main char) ? I searched everywhere but can't find any explaination to do so, I'm not even sure that DB backups are done on a regular basis :/ I have not much hope, but I think I have to try. Thanks in advance for any information and be safe all :D Rod / Syleen |
No
Also, don't do it. Trust your past self. Really, try to spend 4 hours doing something miserable like learning to play the guitar or the piano. OR download the free demo of Propellerhead reason and try to learn to make music on there (follow demo videos, ETC) Do it do it do it |
You may even lose access to a name if you delete a character. It has happened to me, they won't restore names.
The general rule of thumb is,.. Re-Roll if you want another character. |
Your best bet would be to post in the petition forum. Like Baler said, you may have lost the name, but that can be changed.

Thank you all !
Mcoy : yes that's what I did, respectfully explaining my "problem" as I understand there is close to no chance, if at all :) |
Well no answer from the Petition forum (yet). Perhaps there is only a few moderators on these days ? Or perhaps that silence is just a "No"...
Hard to tell :) |
There's a limited staff of volunteers. These things take a while. You'll get an answer eventually.

I've been waiting since February. :) They responded and said someone will get to it when they can........

I just tried the following on a local eqemu instance I keep to fart around in (compiled sometime a year ago):
Code:
select Code:
id name deleted_at Code:
select @id := 15; Code:
id name deleted_at I guess what I'm trying to convey is, if they wanted to, they would have already written something like this and ran it in when requested. |
I'm the sort of person that wants to be 100% sure, so I looked at the code for deleting a char on eqemu :
https://github.com/EQEmu/Server/blob...rld/client.cpp at 965 we have : Code:
bool Client::HandleDeleteCharacterPacket(const EQApplicationPacket *app) { For soft deletes it runs this : Code:
