Does Making a new Character Erase your Contacts?

[myau1]

Someone help, Im dying to start a new char with some buddies but I dont want to lose my contact list! Is there a way to prevent this?

You shouldnt have much trouble you can copy this file to another vmu and copy it back.

ok no problem just go to the dreamcast start up menu and go in your vmu and delete the pso system file.

Please do youself a favor and scrounge up the money to buy a 4x memory card. That way, you can have up to 4 more characters without deleting any of the old ones (plus, your VMU space worries will be over!).

If you put your current VMU in one slot while the 4x memory card is in another, all of your characters will share the same Guild card file. This is what you want.

A different situation would be if you had multiple people in the same household who wanted separate Guild card files. In that case, the best thing is to use the 4x memory card only--thus each of the 4 characters would also have separate Guild card files.

So if I have 2 different VMU's with 2 different sets of guild cards, will they be seen by people who search 4 me even though i may not be using the character they are looking for?
Is that why sometimes after my search, it says "formely known as"??? for some characters? Is that what they do?

You're guild card list will be safe, it doesn't get remade along with your character (I know, I deleted my first char on the first vmu i was using for PSO that had the guildcard file, and I still had what little cards i did have before deletion).

Before you start asking why i deleted, lets just say that server crashes after a death and dropping your mag on a "crashing server" really hurts, and to cap it all off, I hit power out of frustration... ugh... Lesson 1 learned...

yeah i hate server crashes i lost my only dbl saber because of it.
