alright here is a simple explanation of what is going on i run two servers both using vaultster's most recent version and most chars portal between them just fine, but lately some characters have been experiencing errors | Code: | NWNX2 Vaultster version 1.4.6 for Windows.

which is the error i keep getting
funny thing is, i konw for a fact these chars exist on both servers, and most other characters portal just fine as shown by the previous portal of this persons char.
so my question is any idea what is causing this to happen?
could it be that there is database entries ie(ats skills) that are on the character or is it something else?

It could not find the .bic file in the servervault. The name translation between GetName(oPC) and the actual filename on disk is a tricky thing, and sometimes it fails.
This is what we currently use on Avlis:
| Code: | string ConvertToFilename(string sPlayerName)
{
string sRes;
string sChar;
int i, j;
int iLen = GetStringLength(sPlayerName);
if (iLen > 16)
iLen = 16;
for (i = 0; i < iLen; i++)
{
sChar = GetSubString(sPlayerName, i + j, 1);
if ((sChar != " ") && (sChar != "."))
sRes += sChar;
else
{
i--;
j++;
}
}
return sRes + ".bic";
}

If that does not work, NWN came up with some really weird filenames for the character. You could try to adapt that function to include those special case or rename the files on disk.
