Save file gone

diamondparoxysm · 08-15-2018, 06:50 PM

I'm on mac. Was saving my game and then my game crashed (like it does regularly) and now it doesn't show my loaded games, but it's still in my saved games folder. What do I do? I didn't back it up, because I'm an idiot.

don't know if this will work, but here's a link on how to use the auto restore feature of the game. hope it works.

if that doesn't work. maybe post this issue in the bugs subforum, where the developers might see if a bit sooner.

Do not delete until you have gone through all options to fix.
I would also try this.
In the .lg folder in saved_games. Copy all of the .dat files. I think there are 14. Create a new .lf folder in saved_games and paste the .dat files in it. Open OOTP and see if that league is available, if so try to open it.
Post your results here.

Good luck,

Is this an online league?

If so, re-dling the last file brings them back, at least according to a couple guys in my leagues who had the same issue.
