    gold after ios update

    hello,

    today i did upgrade from ios 4.0.1. (open feint, no gamecenter) to 5.0.1. (gamecenter only). after this update i lost all my points and gold but kept the relicts and all other stats. is there any chance to retrieve these gold and points back again? open feint and gamecenter name is the same as in this forum.

    greetings

    i have to mention that i did made a backup before the update and that i did restore this backup after the update again. as said, when i check my stats, everything is there (restarts, miles, relicts, ...) but not gold and not points (probably because of the change from open feint to gamecenter).

    As far as I know, there's no exchange/connection between your Gamecenter and Open Feint accounts, so I guess there you have a reason for your lost scores and gold. The relics and stats on the other hand are saved within the game which is why you kept them.

    The only people to give you a valid answer on that topic are the Redlynx devs though.

    thanks for the info. according to the sdk of open feint, it _is_ possible to transfer achievements from opein feint to gamecenter if the corresponding developer adds this functionalety (but i also might have get it wrong). any dev here who wants to comment?

    Hi, the game tries to use Game Center to identify the player, but if Game Center is not available, it falls back to OpenFeint. In a situation like yours, the 1000 Heroz server does not recognize you as the same player anymore. Points and gold are stored on our own server (not in OpenFeint nor in Game Center), that is why we can have shared leaderboards between OpenFeint and Game Center users as well as between the iPhone/iPod and iPad (HD) versions.

    We can manually fix your problem, just tell us the both the OpenFeint and GameCenter player names, and we can "transfer" your points and gold to your new Game Center identity.

    that would be awesome if it might be possible for you to transfer points and golds!

    my account name in open faint and game center is the same as in this forum -> PurityTR666

    thanks a lot in advance! and it for sure makes sense to store these kind of info within your own database for share between several platforms...

    regards

    Re: gold after ios update

    Hello,

    I'm facing the same problem as PurityTR666, lost all points and gold after updating from iOS 4.0.1 (Open Feint) and switching to Game Center.

    Open Feint : "razmak"
    Game Center : "Razmak (FR)"

    Could you please fix this ?

    Don't bother with the points I made since switching (yesterday) if it's any trouble.

    Thank you in advance.
