Duplicate [0.45.1] invisible NPC's and Game Chrashing at the start of a pokemon Battle

[DionK]

Hello everybody,

Yesterday I ran into a problem while I was playing Pokemon 3D.
I relogged on my friend´s server and all NPC´s where invisible, I also couldn´t interact with them.
Also my game chrashes when I encounter a wild Pokemon.
Here I have a screenshot of the invisible NPC phenomenon:

I also have the crash report when I encounter wild Pokemon:

You should report this error.

Go to "http://pokemon3d.net/forum/forums/6/create-thread" to report this crash there.

I already re-installed the game and it didn't work.
I hope someone can help me fix this.

firstly, always put crash logs in code modukes. Secondly, you should have made a seperate thread for each bug

I think there is a chance that there is a connection between the bugs here, so multiple topics would only make it confusing.

I can't help you with this problem, but it certainly is weird. I hope you'll get a solution soon!

 

[dylanwicorek]

these bugs are most likely seperately catagorized, so they dont really belong together

these bugs are most likely seperately catagorized, so they dont really belong together

They are related to each other: It looks like your NPC data got corrupted and that's why the NPCs don't show up. The wild encounter bug is just a follow-up of the corrupted NPC data.

 

[DionK]

is there a way to fix this?

Try deleting your NPC folder and then redownloading the most recent update

Didn't work

 

[Darkfire]

this is a coruption of your save file
we are working on ways to make this less likely to happen but there is nothing we can do to fix your save....
The NPCs being missing is a direct result of the NPC save data being corrupted and other parts of your save are probably corrupted too
the only real option is to try to send as many pokemon to a friend as possible via the GTS(assuming you already have the GTS if not you probably weren't far enough to warrant transfering out pokemon) and then restart your save

 

[Thijsku]

It would be nice if there is a way to store backups of your (online) savedata, perhaps by allowing multiple online save games. Are there any plans for something like that?
