motherhen Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 Hi, Can anyone please help me. Been working days on a game and have gone and saved another game over it. Can I reverse this or is it lost forever. :wacko: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(Trustee)ZooGrammy Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 I'm sorry Motherhen, as far as I know there is nothing that can be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fern Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 I know it is upsetting but most of us have done it at some point or another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Trustee)genkicoll Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 You might want to consider saving copies of your favorite zoos in a separate folder so that if you accidentally overwrite it, you still have a backup. I've done this kind of thing before with graphics that I've been working on for hours, and then I accidentally overwrite another view that I'd worked on for just as long. It makes me want to tear my hair out! NOOOOOOOOOO~ is my first response! I also recommend saving frequently, and rotating the names you save under (ie. Aquatic1, Aquatic2, Aquatic 3, back to Aquatic 1...) in case something becomes corrupted. It doesn't happen often, but if you've been working on something for a long time and you lose it all... >_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moondawg Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 I have done that also motherhen worked on something for weeks then saved over it i feel your pain also ........ but i learned to save the game with a different name and put it in a diff folder....... Mainl because like genki said sometimes a game will become corrupted and when it does you have a backup ;) :D MööñÐåWg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
