' Wrote:I've inspected the FL installations of a couple people who have this problem. The common theme was that they have installed FL with the FLMM mod option "Server: Select starting location for new server characters" changed from the default. This is a known problem and if you change it then you won't be able to create new characters.
To fix this:
Deactivate the mod by restoring backups and then reactivate the mod. When reactivating it don't change any of the "Server" options - in particular this "Server: Select starting location for new server characters" - leave this as the default (actually I think it is safe to change every other option except this one).
