Lost my Starting points

Post by PCDave666 »

I reinstalled windows the otherday, but backup the X3 TC folder and the egosoft folder in My Documents.

Reinstalled X3 TC and copied save games across and scripts, but I want to start from a new starting point, but only have the 4 normal ones. Is there a way of getting the others back? :(

I loaded up a saved game, moved around for a bit and saved again, but no new saved games.

I've copmleted the Terran Missions and currently a Capatlist and a Vindicator.

Nearly maxed with Argon, Split, Teladi and not far off with Boron and Paranid.

Thanks,


Dave :( :(

The gamestarts are stored in the registery, so unless that was backed up too, they are lost. It is possible to 'hack' the registry entry, but I don't know if someone has done it for X3TC yet.

If you have used a registry cleaner in the past, those usually create a backup of the registry. Perhaps one of those was backed up somewhere.
Come watch me on Twitch where I occasionally play several of the X games
