Heinrich Posted February 5, 2019 Report Share Posted February 5, 2019 I had a terrible experience yesterday: my entire skin folder which i use for IL2 A/C has gone. Sub folders files everything, nothing in the dustbin, nothing found through recovery apps, just gone as if it never existed. My only luck is that I posted 2 days earlier some skins on Mediafire. But the last ones I worked on are gone, I have to start all over again (her should be an emoticon crying out it's eyeballs) And bought a bigger and faster external HD for a more regular back-up. I had some *.dds files for testing but they are not completely what I wanted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadepiece Posted February 5, 2019 Report Share Posted February 5, 2019 I think the new update to the game really took a toll on some folks. I believe most had to rebind their controls and redo their settings, so I imagine it had to do with the update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
US103_Tobin Posted February 5, 2019 Report Share Posted February 5, 2019 Because of stick ID change? I haven't actually tried anything yet....but I did start up the game and went into the settings > key mapping for a different reason. I didn't get that usual message that says it found new devices and asks if you want to transfer the functions assigned to the "old" devices to the "new" ones....so I assumed all was normal.

Heinrich Posted February 5, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2019 Searched for possible reasons at Microsoft. Came down to "S*t happens, make more and often back ups to prevent loss of data." Okay, thx for the advice. Never happened before in all my years with a computer (1986 probably an Olivetti M240).
