load games

Mark82 · 08-30-2018, 12:35 PM

I worked on a new league with college and pro teams for 2 straight days got threw 1 season and everything was fine the next day I went to load games and nothing was their, any clues to why this happened?
PS: I'm on origin and I have now deleted and reinstalled.
I love this game because it is so deep, so I hope I don't continue to have this problem!

always make a backup when you get to a point that you'd rather not start over.

under load saved game you should see something out there

you MAY have been able to use auto save restore, but since you deleted, i doubt it. here's a link to try and see if anything was left over - but not likely.

as Sprtize said, always make a back-up when you get to a point that restarting isn't a good option. i make a back-up with a different name for each session after i close EVERY single session. At the end of the year, i delete all but the last one.

It can sometimes happen that the location we look for saved games files gets "reset". If you go to the expert and troubleshooting tabs on the game settings, there's spots where you can point to the data folders or open up the location of the saved games folder. Make sure those are actually pointing to the location of your save file - sometimes the fix is as simple as setting a path there, exiting the game, and restarting, and all your saves show up again in the right place.
