Critter Posted September 1, 2023 Posted September 1, 2023 Long story short. Update to DCS that I did download. Logged on to the campaign tonight and I am back to Mission One. I was at Mission 5 prior to the update. No save data at all. What gives?
Ramsay Posted September 1, 2023 Posted September 1, 2023 15 hours ago, Critter said: No save data at all. What gives? Campaign progress is saved in "Saved Games\DCS\MissionEditor\logbook.lua" If the file is deleted or the campaign path/file name changes - progress can be lost. If due to a path/file name change - logbook.lua can sometimes be edited to match the new location. For paid DLC the campaign path name will be something like "./Mods/campaigns/FA-18C Raven One/Raven One.cmp" While for user [save games folder] campaigns, the drive letter is also part the path i.e. "C:/Users/Ramsay/Saved Games/DCS/Missions/Campaigns/en/FA-18C TopGun Release by florenceSSD/TopGun .cmp" 1 i9 9900K @4.8GHz, 64GB DDR4, RTX4070 12GB, 1+2TB NVMe, 6+4TB HD, 4+1TB SSD, Winwing Orion 2 F-15EX Throttle + F-16EX Stick, TPR Pedals, TIR5, Win 11 Pro x64, Odyssey G93SC 5120X1440
