Can't choose sub-race, background and gifts
Hi,
I created my first PC and I was able to choose my sub-race, background and gifts after I pulled the leaver on ground on the initial map before passing one of the entry doors.
However once I passed the entry door I got an error and my PC was lost. I created a new one but now when I pull the leaver I only get the message "please wait. Initialising", and nothing else happens.
I tried to re-connect several times and to create other characters without luck. Is there anything else that I can try to fix that?
Thank you.

Did you create a new character with exactly the same name as the old one?
Rule Number 1 is never create a character with the exact same name as a old character before the server has reset, or terrible unexpected and unfortunate events happen.

Yes, I did. Is there a way to fix that? Thanks

Delete the character, then wait for ALL servers to reset before creating another with the same name.
It's probably fine to just wait for your chosen starting server to reset, but no sense risking it.

Yes, it would be awkward if the other servers didn't reset and you crossed into them, that would likely cause further problems.
Pinata's advice is sound.
Equally, pick a different name and try again.

Thanks for the information.
I already tried to create characters with different names and I still can't choose sub-race, background and gifts. When I pull the leaver the only thing that happens is that the message "please wait. Initialising" is shown.

That sounds like something else. Can you post a screenshot?

You shouldn’t have to pull the lever unless the conversation doesn’t load. Which it should be initializing on its own upon entry. If this is not the case, please let me know.

I ended up changing my player name in the nwnplayer.ini file. That seems to have solved the problem for me. I created a new character and the dialog with the options was shown right when I joined the server.
Thank you for all the help!
