backup game

So I had to use a backup of my game and now I have no team icons. Everything is wonky, so I'm guessing the backup system is broken.

So, I checked the standing and it appears no team has a logo anymore. I looked for a way to restore the logos but can't find one. I think older versions had a way to restore the logos but i maybe wrong.

in backing up, you need to copy all files - can't recall the exact wording on the screen, but it takes longer, uses more space, but everything is backed-up for when a need to restore is presented, everything is in place. i've had to use it a couple of times this year, and worked perfectly for me.

I see that now. Why on god's green earth would they do that? Now my game is messed up or I play without logo's. And I just backed it up with all files and it only takes maybe 1 minutes more than the regular backup that doesn't back up logos. Thank you for your response.

To save time for the user. Use the all files option for your initial backup. After that just use the quicker method. Your logos and such will still be in the backup, you don't need to back them up every time.

Once your league starts to grow, backups will take a lot longer, so not having to backup image files every time makes a lot of sense.
