Issues with transferring a friends file #62

Closed Sylareh closed 7 months ago

Sylareh commented 7 months ago

Hi I was able to make the change for myself and a friend. I am just missing one more friend that does not seem to recognize him just yet.

I already went through the code a second time with no issues as listed below.

PS C:\Users\Sylareh\Desktop\UESAVE> python fix-host-save.py "C:\Users\Sylareh\.cargo\bin\uesave.exe" "C:\Users\Sylareh\Desktop\UESAVE\664259594D1CFA7C0DE0A183E8D5A851" 0CA4CFF0000000000000000000000000 8DD8790E000000000000000000000000

Whenever I check the explorer window it looks like it just created the copies with GVAS and JSON, but when my 3rd friend comes in to play/ It still recognizes them as a new character.

in this pictures it shows what I see in my save folder. Any help appreciated since he is the last one missing to be moved into the game.

It seemed to work now but my friend is now in an infinite loading screen when joining me.

I think that happens when you try using the method for your friends new GUID/ old GUID. You are not supposed to do this apparently because Level.dat has all the character info

afiak your conversion is not done yet. it takes some time. it will give you a message with "have fun" when its really done.

this is how it looks like when its done. image

I second this issue! Changed the player file and now they as suck in a loading screen

xNul commented 7 months ago

Anyone experiencing this error should reference @UlfMitHand's comment because they are correct, the file hasn't finished applying in the screenshot @Sylareh posted. If you wait for it to finish, hopefully it will work correctly.
