[b]If you are on the development branch, please ensure your important saves and global save data are backed up.[/b] Due to some upstream changes in the platform we use, we need to revert the version we use. Doing so will delete/remove all save data in the game. By default, your saves and global save data (options, milestones, etc.) are backed up automatically (the last 10 versions), but only if they are newer saves (May 4th, 2021 and newer). If they are older saves, you will need to load and save them to produce the automatic back-ups, or simply export the save(s) you want to keep. These automatic back-ups are located in the main Wayward folder under "backup". In most cases, these will be all you need to re-import once the change occurs. More information on save importing/exporting and back-ups is available here: [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2854947692]https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2854947692[/url] Archiving/copying the "save" directory in the Wayward folder will not work! Everything will need to be re-imported manually after this change occurs. Once the change happens, your Wayward game will not load. This is intentional so nobody loses their saves if they have not seen this warning. To fix this, ensure you have everything backed up that you need as written above, open the "launch_options.json" file and edit the "internalVersion" from "2" to "3". After saving, the game will launch normally. If you did not see this warning in time, and you don't have all the backups you need, please reach out. We will help you on a case-by-case basis and will likely need you to send us your entire "save" directory. [strike]To re-iterate, the steps you need to take are the following if you are reading this and are playing on the development branch: 1. Start the game. 2. Load any game you wish to keep. Save and quit that game. Repeat this for all saves. 3. Ensure everything is looking good in the "backups" folder. 4. Play the development branch as normal until the change occurs. 5. Once the change occurs, the game will no longer open. This is when you change the "internalVersion" from "2" to "3" as mentioned above. 6. Start the game and re-import your global save data and any save games as per the guide link above.[/strike] [h2]UPDATE: The change is now live![/h2] Make the changes in your "launch_options.json" file as described above and re-import your global save data and game saves from your manual or automatic back-ups. If you are missing anything, please make an entire back-up/archive of your "save" folder before doing anything and reach out to me so we can restore anything missing. Apologies on all of this! Let me know if you have any questions!
