First of all make sure you are not trying to play with a vanilla character or one from previous version of MXL (non-Sigma). This problem seems to occur if your 'User Name' in the users folder (
C:\Users\<USERNAME>
) has non-latin or "special" characters in it, cyrillic ones for example, or á, é, ì, ò, ù, etc...
(If this is no the case, sometimes, changing GS or even creating a new character and restarting the mod solves it).
To make sure this concerns you, you could test if a new
Windows User (
named without any special characters) solves the problem. If this is successful, the two solution paths are:
- Keep using the new User login to play.
- Rename User and file system directory (
C:\Users\<USERNAME>
) after reading the warning below:
Warning: this is very dangerous if not performed correctly, possibly breaking your normal user login. For more information about the process, see here: How to rename the User folder. Simply renaming the Username in the Control Panel dialog will not change the folder name in C:\Users\<USERNAME>
and Registry data associated with it.
