Hello All.  I am new to this news group, but I have a (hopefully) easy
question...

	How does one copy the character info from this game to "back up a
character"?  i.e. which files do I need to copy, and where are they
stored?  I have the CD ROM version, and one of my friends tried to
back his up before he reformatted, and it didn't matter--he still had
to start over from scratch!
	--and before the flame throwers get warmed up, allow me to add, I
don't wish to learn to cheat in a multi-player game, but it would be
nice to be able to move to any workstation on the lan, and be able to
play your same character {yes, ALL players have a separate copy of the
CD}
	Please email me directly at    cygn...@comwares.net   ,  or at least
Cc any posted replies to this newsgroup, as my usenet access isn't
very consistent.
	thanx,
Allen S. Jackson

	ps,  from what I've seen so far about the patch, as I don't play on
the internet,  It has got too suck eggs; I mean I was in a
multi-player game as the only one there at the time, and got 2 sets of
the "unique" leather armor of aut, and boy I sure needed the cash, but
I'd have been really upset if one or both of them disapeared as soon
as I set them down!
