saves gone

[Lynsis]

decided to do a completely fresh install with the recent update to clean out some of the performance fixing mods i was using and apparently my saves are gone (200+ hours combined). thought this game used steams cloud saving. T.T

It is cloud save, Did you have it one when you were playing at all? Double check your steam settings.
It sucks but i dont think you'll get it back .... but always back up your saves as cloud save isn't always 100%

wait im so confused
i thought the save file location is not in the game directory

Can you go to your steam folder

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\(This place is your steamI ID number)\2246340\remote\win64_save

maybe you can find it there?


unlessyou meant you completely did a fresh install on your pc ...

Sad. My tip is to save the hunter looks and upload them. That way you get a code which you can keep to restore.

Take look at the automatic backup script mentioned here after 1

It might do you a favour in the future, much better than Steam Cloud.

When you do a new install it overwrites your save for some reason. If you've played since, it's likely not going to work, but you can use windows to recover the old files if they haven't been overwritten more than the once, I had to do the same.

200 hours...that sucks.

I'm guessing this is something Capcom misconfigured or you manually deleted the userdata folder because Steam should not delete save files by uninstalling the game.
