Well, looks like EfU is still not recompiled with the CEP yet. The place works fine with my original characters, but if I take one character in with even a minimum of 1 CEP product, the game doesn't crash - but the game has problems translating the CEP products... hence the "stuck but spin on spot" and "loss of all stuff & spells" as well as your "character portrait" all showing up blank.

Not sure about the slow server response however... it would seem that if someone goes into the game with a CEP char, the server ping rate skyrockets (highest I saw was around 1500) and everything slows down... including this site (took me quite longer than usual to login and post this)... might be because the server/ game is trying to translate the CEP items unsuccessfully?

Guess we'll have to wait until Z has recompiled the mod with the CEP (no doubt he's adding quite a few new twists to the place now) before we can use characters with CEP stuff.

Question Z: will you be adding horses to this place to ride around on? That would be really neat! I wonder if anyone has created a pack-mule to carry things around? I remember having those in the PnP game way back when.
