the title is kinda the whole thing there was a race i made multiple months ago that i actually have on multiple characters and recently when i tried adding it to a new character in my personal character creator it was missing ive looked it up and checked the normal things
1. it was not made recently it was made months ago
2. it is in my collection not just in "my homebrew creations"
3. i have tried removing it from collection and adding it again with no change
4. homebrew is turned on in character creator
5. i made a copy of it and the copy shows up in character creator but not the original so as far as i know its not some setting i clicked in the original or i imagine the copy would have that same setting 
6. as said above it is still on some characters i have but when i make a new one and want to add it, it just doesn't show up in the species section

if anyone has any more suggestions id be happy to hear them, and while yes i know i can just use the copy and if it happens again i could just make another copy, id rather have just 1 of this homebrew (and yes i know i can delete the glitched ones but still)

so if anyone else runs into this problem i think i found a working solution, i tried deleting and then restoring the homebrew as its the only thing i could think of that i hadn't tried and it works, its showing up again in the character creator, now i just gotta check with my group to see if it pops up in the campaigns character creator

..... nevermind..... it was another copy i made a while ago in the past i brought back on accident, i still have one that just refuses to show up.... i guess its just not gonna work anymore
