Friend is having same issuses
Hello, sorry that you are having this issue.
Steam CLoud is knond to cause issues with Windrose saves during sync process.
https://playwindrose.com/faq/#faq-saves
please see this guide on how to deal with it
Same issue
Except I lost 50 hrs gameplay on a hosted server with a friend as well
How can I recover my save, I logged out on another of my PCs known good less than 5 hours ago
That pc should have a good local, how do I upload to cloud and correct issue

here's a guide on how you can recover saves on your dedicated server.
please note that in case you need to use anf FTP client to upload \ download files Filezeila and WinSCP are known to corrupt saves, please use Cyberduck - thi is one FTP client that is known to do well.
If you are using mods - they could also be the reason of save corruptions
its working now i can go in the game but all i played is lost and i cannot recover it

both your server and client should have backup folders, try restoring it to previous back up point
Have the same issue. Backups are all after the infinite loading happened so I can't even use those. Just worked this morning and after that, infinite loading. So seem everything is gone and I have to start all over again?
if you played fine any time after April 19th, you shuld have a working backup before the corruption happened
I have, but the newest backup is from today 12:27pm
No older ones inside the backup folder
hm... you have played several times after April 19th and you only have one save backup in your backup folder?
I copied a save from April 19th, pasted it where it mentioned, I am still getting infinite loading screen into a blank menu
all im getting is to create a new character screen.. everything else is gone
if your save corrupted on April 19th them I'm afraid there's no propper backup 🙁 very sorry
but you said you played normally after April 19th right? if you did the backup folder should have the save backups from later days
So I was able to launch teh game after deleting my save files, but is there any way to get my character back that I was playing on my solo and my dedicated server? 🙁
I just came to post this and saw yours. Im having the exact same issue. I was on this morning and now I cant get past the loading screen directly after the unreal engine screen. Ive tried the troubleshooting. Tried file verification. Tried Reinstalling. Tried backup characters but I cant even get to character selection screen. (According to steam discussion there are SEVERAL people right now having this issue) I used backup from a few hours before the one I initially tried and its working now ^^
anyone know how to fix the infinity loading screnn issue whit out losing the charakter i got to the point where i manage to get the game running but every time i try to load my backup in its again in the loading screen
Maybe try a backup from a time a little earlier??? I had this issue and just did a backup from a few hours before following this and am able to get in and I really didnt lose much!
I guess I'm just not smart enough to understand how to backup stuff lmao. I copped my R5 file to my desktop, but as soon as I try to relaunch it after taking that backup file and putting it into RocksDB, I get the infinite load thing again
So you dont want the entire R5 folder
i copied the "Saved" folder to my desktop so id have it then just went into the backup folder in it and you can see the times on them where it saved
then you go back in to the rocks folder and you will see something that looks like this
You copy whatever was in the backup folder over it
and replace the files
i used one that was from this morning when it was working so maybe try one from around the time u were last actually in game
So i've ran into this same issue. I managed to recover my hosted game but my character is missing. I copied the accounts, players, and worlds files over to the new "saved". I am now able to select my world but thats it.
Having the same issue
Alright, Got it all lined out.
Changing your Nitrado server to connect via direct IP seems to fix the forever loading screen issue
this is happening on my GFs PC currently btw
launched once so far tonight, now it wont launch. when it did launch it was extremely laggy too
shes joining my server, my game plays fine and loads fine no issues
its currently been on the loading screen without the dots moving for 5 mins, music still plays though
lost 40 hours of progress to this...... played 4/30/ and 5/1 no problem, super far and built world... tried today, level 1, no save, no backup (which an update said there was auto backuos??? didnt happen), and the only backup date was 4/19 when they said they sent the patch. Legit makes me not want to play... to have to redo everything, quests, progress, faction reps....
same for me. i lost 20 hours progress and can't fix it with your solutions devs... I Hope u will fix that soon
