So I updated my wallet from v0.8.6.2.4-g000002-beta to v0.8.6.3-beta. The new wallet syncs without problem but it shows 0 coins. Why?

When opening the old wallet all my coins are still there.

The folder where the wallet.dat file changed name.
It as "Karmacoin" (C:\Users\YourUserName\Appdata\Roaming\Karmacoin).
Now it is "Karma" (C:\Users\YourUserName\Appdata\Roaming\Karma).

Backup your wallet with your old wallet (tho one that shows the coins).

Place the file with the old wallet (name should be "wallet.dat") inside the "Karma" folder, and start the new wallet.
After synchronization with the network all your coins will be in your new wallet.

Good luck!

make sure you make a copy of your "wallet.dat" VERY IMPORTANT

follow this steps if your old wallet and new wallet both have coins :

    Download the newest wallet v0.8.6.5. it should download on /roaming/karma
    copy the karma-qt.exe
    Paste it in the old folder.
    Rename it to karmacoin-qt.exe
    run the wallet
    
if it doesn't start synching in few mins then hover over with your mouse and then click help - debug window - console
    copy pasta these two nodes one by one and close the window
        addnode altcoin.dk:9432 add
        addnode altcoin.dk:9436 add
    wait a few minutes. up to 20 mins
    after full synch you can then send your coins to the new address

_______________________________________

if your new wallet does not have any coin and only old wallet does then follow this steps:

    copy "wallet.dat" file from old wallet.
    go to destination folder of the new wallet. should be /roaming/karma
    pasta and overwrite the "wallet.dat" of /roaming/karma with the old wallet.dat of /roaming/karmacoin ( make sure your have no coin in the new wallet because this will delete this wallet data)
    run the wallet

    if it doesn't start synching in few mins then hover over with your mouse and then click help - debug window - console
    copy pasta these two nodes one by one and close the window
        addnode altcoin.dk:9432 add
        addnode altcoin.dk:9436 add
  
wait a few minutes. up to 20 mins
    after full synch you can then send your coins to the new address
