Just updated the game to 0.29

My characters are gone, and the standard characters (that i deleted) are back.
Any way to get my characters back?

Hmmmm, that sounds like Desura has overwritten all your old files. Did it do a fresh install with the new patch?

I am not too familiar with how Desura updates the files for a new patch. If you look in the folders do you still see your character vox files?

Sry for late answer, desura gave me no notice of update on forum

Yeh I think this is a problem with how Desura updates files that have changed during an update patch, maybe because I modified the default characters and their files.

Sorry if this causes you any problems.

For a future patch I am going to properly introduce a way to bring any characters from previous versions to the latest udpate. and to import existing characters. but since this is just pre-alpha some progress and characters might get wiped, sorry
