newbie-bringing oc into motb

Post by mchlbhm »

Just beat OC, but I can't use the character I beat it with in motb. Doesn't seem to be a selection for it. Did I miss something? :(

Welcome to GB mchlbhm :D

Are both your games fully updated? If so, there is no reason you shouldn't be able to bring the main character over from the OC. Silly question; have you tried starting a new campaign in MotB and clicking on choose a pre-made character, instead of the using a custom one? If i remember correctly, ur main character from the OC should be under the pre-made section. There are quite alot of pre-made characters this time around for MotB (as compared to the OC), so be sure to look carefully. He/She should be around somewhere. :)

I did go through the pre-made charaters, but didn't find mine. Also, the updater said I was good. lol I thought I saw my character, but it was level 1. I'm sure i wasn't by the end of oc. ;)

Lol i see. Well, based on my past experience with the game, ur main character from the OC should be located in the pre-made character section. If you can't find it there, then unfortunately, i am outta ideas. Sorry :(

In my game the options are "select character" and "create character," and the former is what you want. The game is supposed to export your character (so you can use it in other campaigns) when you create it and when you complete a campaign, so you should see at least two versions of your character. If it's just not there, you can always load a saved game from the OC and manually export your character (via the character page), or you can always just create a new character. MOTB will advance new characters to level 18.
