i have just placed a basic vendor and filled it with my goods. On logging in toda i found that it had reverted to a pre initialized state.


Is there a way to resolve this issue?

No..I've seen this already. MY vendor is loaded with loads of misc., but mainly deeds as i am an architect. I can't do anything with it. If I destroy it I loose eevrything, I can't so that, it's 500k plus worth od stuff

There are reports of initialized vendors reverting back to uninitialized state or disappearing all together. Open a CSR ticket immediately.


The vendor may reset to it's former initialized state next server restart, but that's hoping for a good solution. Hopefully this happens and you can then comment and delete your CSR ticket. Otherwise, I would just wait for their help.

we've been through 2 server restarts since the problem started.



Thanks for the info though. How hard can it be to rewrite the program to get it to work? It seems like a simply program compared to desiging the look of the game, maybe I'm wrong

I don't know if this will work, but...


Try placing a new vendor and initializing it. Then, browse the vendor and look at items on ALL yourvendors (I think it's selected by default). Then, you may be able to withdraw the items from sale and retrieve them to your inventory.


You'd at least be able to get your stuff back to put on a new vendor.


Again, I don't know if this would work, but it's worth a try if your only other option is to delete your bugged vendor.

I mean, not that fancy store-bought dirt.
That stuff's loaded with nutrients. I can't compete with that stuff.

Kamlan,


I had my vendor start saying "this vendor is no longer working properly" once. It didn't say anything about 'not initialized', but it took about 4-5 days and it resolved itself. It had fixed itself by the time a CSR responded. I put a vendor in front of it called "My Real Vendor is On Vacation" and just put up new items till the other one fixed itself.
