There is a small box in the town, near the road, behind Ogden the Innkeeper, labeled "Shared Stash." Anything you drop in there will be able to be pulled out by any character.

Oh freakin' weird. So your characters can be saved but the Trade Stash just doesn't work? Can, like, the same character that put it in still get it out, or does it disappear the instant you put it in there?

Try going to the belzebub.exe icon you use to start the game, right-click and choose to "run as administrator." Hopefully this is just some weird permissions cock-up.
Otherwise it's likely a glitch, do a fresh install.

If neither of those work, it'd be nice to know your operating system.

No, there are no prerequisites to using the shared stash. It should just have whatever you put in it, whenever you open it, whoever opens it.

I'm getting a bit more of a handle on the problem, though. Windows 7 and this game have quite a few known compatibility issues. Right-click the belzebub.exe icon again and choose Compatibility Mode if your version has it; then choose to run with Windows XP mode (or, frankly, anything other than Windows 7). Hopefully that will not only fix this but will also help possible future problems. Consider a newer OS?

If that doesn't work find a new version of DirectX online, download it, and make sure it's up to date.

If that doesn't work go to Belzebub > DATA > player_save and open the file called 'shared.box' with Notepad. Tell me if it's empty.

Oh, don't worry about it. I love this mod and I love a good puzzle, helping people make sure they can play it too is what I do for fun.

File named Shared box isnt empty but there are only some weird symbols instead of text.
While Im running the game with XP SP3 compilation there is an mpq error.
Direct X is fine since its up to date.
About OS. I dont like win10 at all so thats why Im still using win7.
I dont have any idea how to fix it >.>

Okay, thanks for posting the contents of the file. That was gonna be my next step anyway. It's definitely corrupted, so go ahead and delete the shared.box file (NOT the whole player_save folder, I learned that one the hard way!). We're going to do a forced reset and hope that one works better. The game -should- simply create a fresh file the next time you start it up. If it does but still doesn't work, it may take a few tries, so go ahead and repeat the process, say, four times before we try something else. If that doesn't work, or the shared.box doesn't create itself, we've narrowed it down significantly, so let me know.

You are my life saver <3 After 1st try of deleting corrupted file game is fixed. Stash is still named "trade" but atleast I can put there something and pick it up with other char :))))) Thank you for ur tips and patience I really appreciate it.

I just have 2 small questions.
Whats the difference between technobork and belzebub ? And how many players playing online this days. (and it is possible to transfer my character from belz to mp game ? I guess not but Im not sure)

Oh thank goodness. I'm glad I could help. :) ...especially before we had to get to the really silly stuff.
I don't play Tchernobog so all I know is it's multi-player only, it doesn't have the quests, and you can't transfer characters between it and Belzebub. It looks fun but I simply don't have the time these days. I'm sure someone else will pop in with the answers, though.
