Your Player Name Has Been Refused by Server

This is a well known Beamdog bug that still occurs.

You attempt to login to your favourite Multiplayer Persistent World on the NWServer List and you get this message.

If you try to login to other servers you will receive the same response.

This is NOT a problem with the host server itself or it's module.  This is a known Beamdog bug that you need to fix on your local PC for the time being.

The solution is the check nwplayer.ini for Player Name = <some name>.  If it's there, change it.  If it's not there then add it.  It should be able to work after that.

This may have been moved to settings.tml or will be in the future.
