Windows / Re: Savegames lost when installing/uninstalling different versions

« on: January 16, 2014, 09:07:54 pm »

Now it's tested, at least in windows 7, and its conflictive (wonder what would have happened if I didn't erase saved games when promted, all this began because I found the old 2.3 savegames on that directory, so multiple version savegames where there indeed). I unsuccessfully tried with some file recovery softwares. I'll start again, I love this game so it will be no problem. Thanks!

Windows / Savegames lost when installing/uninstalling different versions

« on: January 16, 2014, 05:30:40 pm »

Hi, I'm playing in windows 7, my games are saved in the folder: appdata/roaming/ufoai/(version number)

I have been playing a campaign in 2.4 but I also happened to have some 2.3 old savegames of an unfinished game. Yersterday, I was courious about 2.5 and 2.6 development and downloaded them, I also installed an old 2.2 version I had stored in dvd format (I was actually looking for 2.3 to finish that old campaign). Today, I uninstalled the 2.2, 2.5 and 2.6 versions (when asked to delete savegames and configuration I clicked "yes") and when I run UfoAI 2.4 I see I lost all my data and configuration.

Is there any way of recovering them?

I thought that when uninstalling, deleting savegames would be limited to the folders 

appdata/roaming/ufoai/2.5
appdata/roaming/ufoai/2.6-dev

But it seems it had erased the whole appdata/roaming/ufoai/ folder.

Thanks!

Thanks for the prompt answer Shiplt

Ok, so I dont know what I downloaded, some "data version" which I cant use and Ill delete if I dont need it. I'll download the full installer when I get home

should I download this 1.1 exe  posted here http://ufoai.org/forum/index.php/topic,6302.0.html
Or this 968.7 mb exe downloadable from http://sourceforge.net/projects/ufoai/files/ or http://sourceforge.net/projects/ufoai/files/UFO_AI%202.x/2.4/ ??

Thanks again

Hi, I used to play the 2.3 version and now I wanted to give a try to the 2.4 version. I'm using windows 7 x64.

I downloaded this: Data Data version 2.4 (≈937 MB)

I unzipped the file to find that there is no exe file.

Today I found there is a 1.1GB version which is .exe

I'm not at home now, I can download that version when I get home, but I wanted to know if I can use the files I downloaded just to patch my 2.3 version, so I dont need to redownload the game. If that is possible, will I lose my old campaign? will I be able to play my campaign in 2.3 and the a new campaign in 2.4? will I be able to play the old campaign just in 2.4?

Thank you!
