Whats going on?

[Roy]

Ive lost all savegames, and whenever I try to start a new game I cant because I dont have a single mask. Whats going on?

Sorry to hear this, unfortunately I can't help restore your save game but I can unlock the first mask for you.
Head into the game's directory (mine is): C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\hotline_miami and open the 'saves.dat' file in notepad. Change the first zero on the first line to a 1 and the Richard mask (the default one) will be unlocked next time you launch the game.

In order to help provide information for a fix, could you please provide your system information including operating system and give any details possible as to what may have caused the loss of the save game. I've seen this happen a couple of times now and would like to forward any information I can to the devs to help them create a solution. Thanks!
