Are you certain your notetaker isn't translating a perkins keystroke
into something else (like an exclamation mark if you're using the "the"
contraction)? Maybe try spelling it out fully, and remember to avoid any
capital letters.
Your character definitely exists:
Player 'coralthewolf', last login Sat Dec 9 22:40:00 2023
and entering the name gave me a password prompt.
You can also try creating another character if you like: there are no
limits on the number you can create, and most people actually have more
than one to try out different combinations of the classes.

I redownloaded Nexus and changed the port back to 3010. But still got
the same "invalid name, try another" response when I tried Coralthewolf.
And yes, that is the correct spelling. So it looks like my stay on Alter
was a brief, but enjoyable, one. Thanks for all your help Jude and John.
I know I could sideload Tintin+ but I just don't feel comfortable
fiddling with files that I don't understand; I'm not a coder.

I will change the port, but I can't use MushZ because I'm playing on
an Android notetaker. I prefer its perkins keyboard to any qwerty one.

The mixed-up characters you're talking about are ascii art.
Change your client to point to port 3010 and they will go away.
If possible, using mush-z is your best option for playing Alter
Aeon.

Thanks, Jude, I'll try that. Nexus hasn't been updated since
September of 2023 and all it said under what's new is
cominterface fixes" whatever that means. I'll try the re-install
and see what happens. If it works, fine. If not, Alter was fun
while it lasted for me. The rest of the machine and all other
apps work beautifully. On Jun 18, 2024 10:04 AM, Jude DaShiell

It's either sloppy coding on that client or the client's
files got corrupted. It may be useful to delete the client
and download the client again and then try the login again
with original character. If you get in, corruption happened
and admin maintainence may be in order for your machine.

I haven't played Alter in about 6 months. When I tried
to log on with my character name, I got the message
"invalid name, trx another". So I tried logging into
their secure login portal on their site. This worked
splendidly and my account info looked just fine. So I
went back to my client and tried to re-create
Coralthewolf. I got the message "name is already in use"
which of course, it is. So the game itself clearly
recognizes the character. But after closing the app
completely for several hours I got the same "invalid
name" message, even though I know I'm typing it
correctly. The only thing I can see that might be
strange is that at the very bottom of the screen, within
the client, are quite a few lines of code: numbers,
letters, quotes, question minks, and the plus sign, in
several configurations. I have no idea what, if
anything, it means. The only understandable lines say
Alter Aeon v2.25 or something like that. Has this
happened to anyone else? Any ideas what's going on?
Should I try to create a new character and if that one
logs in successfully, try to log it out and log Coral
io? Thanks for any responses. Heather
