Sh&%, I’m really sorry that happened to you. That really wasn’t my intention when I recommended to clear your browser cache. But then again, as far as I know this almost only happens if you use Internet Explorer as a browser. There were no such problems reported with firefox and chrome lately. Maybe it’s time to consider switching to a better browser?

And like Nug already said, it’s always better to save your characters externally in text files. It also helps to keep it more overseeable if you have 400+ characters. I for example have always just one character in my list – the one I’m actually working on. (Also I save every few minutes just in case.)

Here’s a quick manual how to save your characters externally:

When using a Windows PC:

1.) Open the Text Editor by clicking Start > Programs > Accessories > Editor
2.) Open HM3 in your browser and load your character.
3.) Click save in HM3.
4.) Choose the tab “Text” and you can see the HM-Code of your character.
5.) Place your cursor somewhere in the text and press CTRL+A followed by CTRL-C
6.) Go to your open Editor window and put your HM-Code in it by pressing CTRL+V
7.) Save the code as a “txt” file somewhere on your computer where you can find it again later. Best if you name the txt file the same as the character, but that’s up to you.
8.) Done!

When using a Mac:

1.) Open TextEdit in the “Programs” folder or with Launchpad (OS X Lion und Mountain Lion)
2. – 8.) The same as under Windows…

Again: I’m really sorry to have caused you problems. 🙁
