Adjusted GFX in-game - Lost Character :(

[iAwesome 128]

So, I just adjusted my GFX in the in-game option, and my game crashed. When I logged back on, my character was gone and it had reset back to default character. All those hours with scavanging gone to waste. I reckong there's nothing I can do to get it back either except start over again. I had everything I needed, and was way up north. I strongly suggest other players not to waste their time scavanging for items for hours and hours ;P
