Ryzom

I open Ryzom and log in and get to the char selection screen and then go play.
The first few bars load up quick, then about a 2-3 min wait for the next bars to load up, but it takes over ten minutes for the last bar to load
And then I get "please wait" message. Im 90% sure I can fix the please wait by pinholing my router but.. the wait time to load is just insane!

Spec:

AMD Athlon 2000+
768 Ram (generic)
Win2K
Plenty of free space
Geforce4 TI4800se

So... any help would be neato. Im also trying to load it with sound off and graphics an minimum..

I see

But ive tried all those :S Guess ill keep trying.. how long should the load take ? Roughly..

Well.. it works fine if I make a new char... ? Odd.

Sounds like you have some corrupted character configuration files.
Go to the SAVE folder (c:\program files\ryzom\save usually) and delete the files for the character in question. Be warned that nay map markers and macros will be deleted.

Just to add to this. It is a good idea to back up the character folders to a different location fairly frequently. Things like the markers, macros and, I think, the action bars are stored on your local hard disk (as implied by Zerlin) and may get lost if the game or computer crashes.
