NOTE FROM THE DEVELOPERS:
Characters created with the new Character Customizer are NOT backwards compatible. if you attempt to load a newly created character into an older world, it has the potential of causing data loss from the old world.
This will not change going forward. If you create a new world (with a new character), you should be able to log in with an older character and "ferry" your existing materials to the new world.
Also: IF you create a character with the new customizer, and name it the same as an existing, it will OVERWRITE the existing character and you will loose all items on the original character.
This build is now available to ALL PLAYERS
