Missing liveries & Lost the Bandit after buying all dlc?

[Pilot YELDAH]

idk how but i had the bandit before i got all the dlc, is there any way of getting it back?
https://wreckfest.fandom.com/wiki/Bandit
the fandom wiki says it's supposedly Pre-order only

[edit] i've also lost access to a lot of vehicle paint styles, some vehicles just have no options now, really weird :(

So you pre-ordered Wreckfest before June 14, 2018? To get the original Bandit car?

You may need to load backup save files from Wreckfest save folder: \Steam\userdata\3795*****\228380\local\wreckfest

Give this thread a look to see what 3 files you need from WF \backup folder:

If page don't load, try back later. Right now, it hit or miss if Bugbear forum will load.

i'll give it a go, originally i didn't think it would be the kind of problem to be present in userdata, but a full re-install shows the same issues, so i'll try the backups

yeah that fixed the customisation options
as for the bandit, i had a steam code for it i redeemed a while back so i might try steam support first as i can't see it on my account
thanks a lot for the help tho, you're a treasure to the community

Hmm, if you redeem the Bandit code and had it in your garage. You would think the backup career file would still have the Bandit unlocked.

indeed that is the strange part, the backup i am currently using most certainly has the bandit, and some nice customisation on it, but it just doesn't show up in the garage

I just deleted my Wrecfest save folder and disable WF Steam save. Restarted Wreckfest and I was back to level 1 and the Rocket. I had all the DLC cars and the Bandit Ripper and my Class A 258 stock Bandit.

So the code for the Bandit is kept else where. I wonder if you were to uninstalled Wreckfect, then do an install, would you loose the the code for the Bandit?


I not willing to test out this theory! ;)

Hmm, did some more checking and I go Wreckfest, right click Properties> DLC. You will see a list of DLCs. I see Wreckfest Exclusive Car that was installed Jun 15, 2018, checked marked. This is the original Bandit.

Do you see this in your Wreckfest DLC list?

[Pilot YELDAH]

yeah i did check dlc and didn't see the car, i assumed it might've been hidden because it's not listed on the store but as you see it in your dlc list, i'll continue my plan to ask steam support about the redeemed content

[Purple44]

If you can find your sendowl email with the code, could try and redeem it again?

Purple44, Can you add me as a friend? I'll ask a couple of questions about Wreskfest, because my questions have disappeared somewhere here.

[ANTi6iOTiC]

For some reason I can't find where I wrote.
