(Resolved)New installed Anteworld
« on: July 07, 2012, 10:46:20 am »
I installet Anteworld to a new (faster) PC and then I copy and past all my old Folders to the new installation.Nevertheless all my buildings and roads are lost!  :(

I still have a backup from the old one. Which folder I have to change?  :-\ Until now I meant the cache folder?

Copy the cache folder over the new one or did you try that already?

Are you running it as administrator ? Where did you put your cache ? Did you copy your files from C:\Users\"username"\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\Outerra\Anteworld  ?

There is no folder, not on the old PC and not on the new PC.

In the data-folder I have the 12GB earth-folder. Nevertheless the program download the whole data when I change the location. What's wrong here?  :-\

Some more information:

The "old" Anteworld it was installed to a Win7 32bit System, and now it's installed to a Win7 64bit System. Perhaps that make some difference.

Go to your install dir and check the content of data.cfg file - where does it point to?

The problem is in the system 32 and 64 bit version. I don't know if it should go to program files or program files (x86). You can try to move files and see what happens.

The wrong path.  ::)

So, now I deinstalled and reinstall Anteworld again and then I copied just the earth folder to the data folder and the cache folder. And now: it works!  8)

Thanks for your support!
