Saving bases and locked toons?

[Moonfyire101]

So we have Sentinel to extract the active toons but what about those who can't re-up their account? Is there a way to extract the locked toons as well? Also will we get a way to extract out bases? Some of us spent 8 years with our currently locked toons and building our bases up. It would be sad to see them go. My account is luckily still active but a lot of peoples ran out and couldn't be renewed. My house hold has 4 accounts and only 2 re-upped before the store closed and the other 2 ran out and wouldn't let me pay. Suggestions?

Bases (including contents in storage) can be captured in a demorecord file while standing in the base.

Unfortunately, there's no way at this time to collect the data for characters that are locked.

Oh thanks! So do i just stand in the base when i save my toon with sentinal or do i need a different program? 

Anyone think of a way to unlock locked toons to save them?

Sentinel isn't involved. Stand in a base and type this in the chat window:

/demorecord yoursgname
/demostop

It takes effect instantly, you can demostop right after you start recording and you already have everything you need. Look in your coh install directory, there should be a folder called client_demos. Inside of that find yoursgname.cohdemo and copy that file somewhere safe. That's your base.

A solution for locked characters unfortunately isn't possible from our end. :(

Locked toons could be copied to the beta server, where when the store is functioning (which isn't always) you can buy more server slots (for free) and see them again.

Correct, but Sentinel+ is still only functional on the live client.  About the best you could probably do on Beta is save your costume files at the tailor.

Hm, what about the Training Room?

I'm not sure what the state of the store is on the Training Room and I'm not certain which client version it has loaded.
