Mysiaca Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 (edited) I apologize if this has been posted before, or if the post looks a little weird. I'm still new to these forums.This update brought the ability to have more than one file, so I kept my playthrough from the 'Progress' update that I had started, and made a 2nd file. I played with all the new things, died a few times. Glorious things. And then I found the perfect world, world 3 on that file. I ended up dying to see if you could respawn in that world, and you could.But yesterday I went onto the first file to play in that world, continue it a bit, finish what I'd started. And for... some reason, the 2nd file, that perfect, beautiful world, vanished. It's 'Empty' and wants me to pick between sandbox or story, just like when I started, not the usual 'Retry' 'Delete' etc from before.So I was wondering if there's any way to recover a world that you didn't get rid of yourself? Like maybe the game still holds onto the file somewhere? Somewhere so that it's not just GONE.I heard that there was a hotfix... could it be because of that? Did it just fix it so that you can't continue from the worlds when you die?Edit : Oh, now its giving me a failed to load message. ;x Edited February 14, 2013 by Mysiaca Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/9263-oh-no/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormfront Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 try disabling your steam cloud I dont know why but it can mess with those who backup saves Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/9263-oh-no/#findComment-80876 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysiaca Posted February 14, 2013 Author Share Posted February 14, 2013 I'll try that, but I haven't backed up any saves, used any mods, or anything of the sort, so I'm not really sure what's going on...I'm a little disappointed, but not upset. That's why its a beta. :v Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/9263-oh-no/#findComment-80884 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enchanter Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Yep, this has happened to me too. I just now checked my Don't Starve, and they were all empty.I guess I learned my lesson: Make a backup every time I finish a playing session :PLuckily, I didn't lose too much (only about 30 days, or 4 hours of gameplay). I'm going to just hunt for the perfect world now, but I wish there was something like "seeds" (like in Minecraft) that I could use to completely replicate the original world, because I quite liked my old one, hehe.

Enchanter Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 How strange! In my previous post on this thread, I had said that my save file was deleted. I had tried enabling, and disabling steam cloud, but none of that worked. I log onto Don't Starve a few hours later to "catch up" again, and BAM! My save file! It has returned. Honestly, I have no idea what happened, but I'm glad I got my save back Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/9263-oh-no/#findComment-81197 Share on other sites More sharing options...
