Character and progress lost

Recommended Posts

Hi.

I´ve installed all patches and haven´t changed anything.

I´ve not played for a few weeks and now when I start, there´s only the preset character to choose from.

The one that I´ve created is not available from the list and obviously therefor all progress is lost as well.

I´ve started the program a couple of times now, but to no effect.

Any suggestions?

Hi, please check your My Documents Take On Helicopters and Take On Helicopters Other Profiles folders. This is where your user profiles are stored. Did you happen to change Windows user?

Hi.

Thanks for your reply.

I´ve got 3 files in the Take On Helicopters folder:

User.takeonhProfile

User.vars.TakeOnHProfile

TakeOnH (cfg-file)

Also the "Saved" file.

Any chance to load those files into the game?

Thomas

Also: There are folders for the campaign and scenarios, however the folders like "United_States_H.United_States_H and the similar ones are empty.

And yes, I do change the user regularly, but have done that since I bought the game (CD-version).

I´ve just created a new character, that one appears under "Take On Helicopters Other Profiles". This folder is new and only appeared after I´ve created the new character.

*Confused*

No solution?

As this is defiantly a bug in the programme, I´d expect someone to at least have an idea?

Any user profile not named like your Windows account, is placed in the Other Profiles folder. Was this profile like that, or named like the Windows account? We have not encountered the game deleting profile files ourselves, unless it was deleted in the menu manually. Has anybody else experienced this?

Hi.

My user profile did have a different name than my windows user name.

Because the game crashes every now and then, maybe this can cause a user profile file to be corrupted and damaged?
