I just resubbed, and I am having problems getting into the game with one specific character. This is only using the Stormfront interface, I can log in with Wizard just fine with that character, but not in Stormfront. This is with Lich completely disabled, as well (if there are concerns about 3rd party interfaces) Every other character on that account is fine, and can log in using in Stormfront (with or without Lich enabled).

Any ideas?

Also, when I logged in with Wizard, I moved the character around to different locations since that seemed to have fixed similar problems in the past.

redownload/install stormfront. Delete wizard completely.

Tried a complete uninstall and then reinstall, including removing everything even vaguely simu related. Did not reinstall Lich yet, just plain SF, wanted to see if that would make a difference. No luck

Also, can't log in with that character using the 'Play using Browser' option, either.

That's weird. What happens if you log on without Lich? The game just crashes?

I can't recall if I hit this when storing server side configuration or local side configuration, but I had something similar. I think it was when storing server side and wrote this assuming that. My memory stinks, though, so if everything is already local, reverse my instructions.

Try "Options -> Settings -> Location" and change everything the location of everything to either local. You may have to re-apply anything that hasn't successfully downloaded from the server in your attempts to login. Once you can login, you can move them (one at a time) back to server side. In particular, watch out for a large storage of scripts. (Especially if you didn't use Lich before re-subbing in which case you may have a TON of FE scripts.)

If that doesn't help, I have nothing.

Still get an instant disconnect

Thanks for the suggestions. Unfortunately, it didn't work.

Almost 100% certain Lich is fucking up. Since it's a login issue, Lich might be trying to log on as you are trying to oogin through Stillfront, hence a conflicting 'you're already online' login issue. Be a "Roblar badass" and just play the game without Lich.

If you can't even play with the browser, the issue is on Simu's end. You need to contact Feedback.

I did, and they transferred the character to one of their accounts, and logged him in via SF no problem. Also, I can log in fine with Wizard. Still not sure what the issue is.

Go over to a friends and download just stormfront and try logging into your character there.
