open the HarvestMap.lua in the savedvariables folder (any texteditor works)
the file has the following structure:Harvest_SavedVars = { ["Default"] = { ["@accountname"] = {
the game will try to load the data stored in the ["@accountname"] part. however before eso 1.3 all the data was stored in [""].
So to reload your data, exit the game and open said file.
(you may want to backup the file beforehand.)
Search (ctrl+f) for "@accountname" and replace it with something like "@accountname2" (this is essentially a backup of your new data since the 1.3 patch).
now search for [""] = and replace the "" with "@accountname" (your account name).
This issue is realted to the GetDisplayName function broken in Update 2 and fixed in Update 3.
You are right. if it had been the correction of GetDisplayName(), a restoration of the files would have done nothing.Just restoring the entire harvest folder from a backup the night before the update fixed the problem. So either EDO messes with the addon folder, or maybe there was an issue with a corrupt file on my PC.
I also cannot find the code section that you are referring to in the Harvestmap.Iua, I'm using the latest version.
BTW what language does the addons use, visual basic?
