Yeah I saw your first post -- be careful. Same server?

You can't transfer with stuff in your inventory as far as I know, it gets dumped into a backpack on the floor at the obelisk you transferred from. You need to move stuff you want to transfer into the obelisk, there's three tabs, data, creatures and tribute. Make sure you put the items into data. I lost a bunch of stuff myself before I worked that out.

Edit: Mia culpa, I misinterpreted what I read in game and stand corrected.

That is normal...and how it is supposed to work. Items in inventory do NOT transfer. You can only bring along items that you move into the inventory of the obelisk.

The reason for this is because server clusters are allowed to decide if they want to allow item transfers or not. The server admins have the option of allowing you to transfer characters but NOT items (in which case the inventory part of the obelisk is disabled).

Items in inventory can and do transfer in clusters. They do not in single player. However some items cannot transfer due to:

1. Playing on a cluster that has modded content on 1 map but not on another(rare but I do play on one such cluster that uses for example PIU content on all but 1 of its maps intentionally by the owner).

2. Element or similar (unless using modded versions where the mod for transferable element etc can be xferred).

3. Incorrect settings between maps in a cluster or intentional ones(ie x not allowed to xfer or not found on x map/server).

4. Random glitch in the matrix.

How come when I went to do a transfer the first time then it gave me a warning that items in inventory would be dropped on the ground?

Or was the warning about Dinos inventory and I just read it too quickly?

Sometimes in official,if add stuff in the last seconds of save world,no get a warning and see the stuff available to transfer but no travel to the other server in you inventory

[Seizurebv]

When your cluster doesn't have all the same mods you will lose everything that is related to the mods that do not exist on the destination server.

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
