Hello everyone.

I had a question for some nice pwis out there ^^

I made a character a few years ago on pwi, I really liked the way that character looked so I was wondering if i could, by any chance get it back?(for my new character that Im going to create) For example, lets say I find some codes or something that has been saved in an old folder somewhere. Since pwi only saves the latest character modifications in game - and Ive made quite a few - I cant get it back that way. No matter how much I try to modify a new character the same way I cant get it back the way it looked back then either, it just feels like something doesnt look right on the character.

Now, Ive heard that using codes and stuff isnt allowed for the game, but since this isnt modifying the character in a way thats inaccessible in game(it still follows the games modification rules) it should be okay...right? I dont want to break the rules or anything.

So if anybody knows if there is any way to get old characters modifications back - while following the games rules - please let me know.
thanks everyone!

    From what I know, only if you saved the first version that you liked so much, then you would be able to repick it when you do a makeover. I'm pretty sure it only saves the .ini information when you save it as a favorite(there's a box on the side where you do it. If you name it then it saves in the folder where the other presets are found as that name.)

    If that character is still around, you could use a makeover scroll to change something. But instead of doing anything, save the look there, then cancel. And no, that will not consume the scroll, since you cancelled it's use.

    If the character is long gone, if you say you got the ini file saved somewhere on your comp, just copy-paste it into the class you want to use it. Not sure which folder it is among those ten? Just go and create a new char, save the style in caplock for faster searching, then exit pwi and check your folder again.

    If you mean, you saved the change out of ini file for some reason, to my knowledge (don't quote me), you should be allowed to edit it back into an ini file, since it is within the game parameter( for example, those arms size you had before, was made with the slider, it's not 1 inch too big that is should be allowed).
