Warning! Logbook data will be lost upgrading to 2.5

[FragBum]

Okay if you want to retain your logbook data upgrading from 2.2.x to 2.5 you need to back it up and copy it back into it's directory.

 

 

 

The path is:

 

C:\Users\SavedGames\DCSopenAlpha\MissionEditor

 

 

The file is:

 

logbook.lua

 

Whilst it might be a minor gripe you'd think they would take care of stuff like that, I mean really?

Thanks for the heads up...

 

Backup copied into 2.5 and all is right with the math.

I copied my file just in case, but my file was not lost. Just upgraded from the 1.5 beta to the 2.5 beta and it was still there. Bummer man, that sucks.

How i can transfer my pilot data from 1.5.8. into 2.5?

 

I guess you could try to open your 1.5.8 logbook.lua and copy relevant lines to your 2.5OB logbook.lua. They're just text files, after all, so it should work. Remember to edit lua files with Notepad++ program to avoid corrupting them (don't use windows notepad no matter what).

 

I've never done it, though, so make backups first.

well I saved the whole folder before update, but everything is fine without it, all there
