Having completed all of the missions and most of the challenges in Hawaii, then most of the Alaska challenges you can imagine my horror this afternoon when I logged on for a flight and found that all Missions, Challenges and other bits and pieces had been reset to ZERO.

 

Panic, panic, panic.

I know, I'll go online and see if anyone has had the same problem - They had, and it was due to the career and hash files being overwritten for some reason and as these stats are only held locally I was well and truly snookered.

 

Fortunately someone on AVSIM a while ago suggested making a backup of the career folder - which I do regularly, the last of which I did yesterday.

 

So, with a fluttering heart and shaking fingers I coppied all the Career#.bin and Career#.bin.hash files back to the Career folder and re-started Flight...

 

 

It worked.

I still have yesterday's challenges to redo but it's a small price to pay.

So, whoever it was that suggested backing up the career folder - my most heart felt thanks. I just didn't really want to start all those challenges from scratch.

Save early, save often. I think that was in the manual of an early Kings Quest.

Save early, save often.
