Terrarian
WTF. I have the paid version. I was playing 4 hrs ago and it worked fine. Anyone know what i can do to recover my player?

Apparently the game thinks it's running an earlier version than it actually is, or the character data was corrupted in such a way that it seems like it was created by a later version of the game- either way, the game was coded to refuse to play characters from later versions than the version it is running (stops file corruption from the use of items whose IDs haven't been coded in yet). That's what I think is going on, code-wise. Fixing it, though? I don't know.
 
I have the Android version 1.2.
(not sure why the pic doesn't work, its just the error message I described at the choose a character screen)
 
I had this same problem too! My second world and main character were gone... I had a full set of hallowed, orichalcum and palladium!!! I even had a goddamn extractinator! All my hard work of defeating Plantera 5 times and Golem has went down the drain... I feel suicidal.
 
That happened to me as well!

This just happened to me. ALL MY FRICKING HARD WORK. Someone needs to get attention of a Moderator or 505Games themselves. We cant let this happen. ;-;
 
Does anyone know how to fix this? It just happened to me and i want to play with all my stuff again! $-_-
No way to fix it. I sent email to 505Games. And promised to never do that again. They suggested some useless "ways to fix it". Of course none worked. In the last email they said that there is no possible way to get lost data back. So yeah, let's not fix it and let players lose all their hard work `-_-
