Will we be able to import our character files (.ini) from the MY version?

I'm not sure if anyone ever noticed but in the character customization screen you have save your char file so if you decide to make a new char you can just upload the char file and have it already customized from previously. Will our files be compatible with this version or should I not waste cubigold to buy a customize scroll just yet?

    You wouldn't have to buy a customize scroll... All you need to do is just create a new character.

    No I want to have my same exact char look from the MY version because I've used it from the PH version I played previously for a year.

    Well, then seeing as how you don't want to make any changes, I guess you don't need a scroll.

    You know, I was wondering about that too. It is an .ini file, so if you drag and drop it in the right directory when the game comes out, it should work?

    You have to buy a customize scroll because you cannot save the file after the 48 hour grace period is over.

    You just create a new character and it's fine. The new character(of the same class) will look exactly the same as your old character if you haven't created a different character of the same class between the creation of the original and this transplant.

    ... This is how I created a character that looked exactly like myself in the Delphi version. Well, actually, I made 5 looks exactly like me :p. Got a whole lotta Ark clones running around :D

    Meh, I'd rather just use the cubigold I have left on my account so it doesn't go to waste.
