I moved my files over to a new hard drive recently, but I still have a copy of my etterna folder. It won't allow me to upload scores though.

#

#

probably need someone else to try xml upload

#

works for me

Could be some weird shit happening from booting my older hard drive on my new pc, since it did break a few things like chrome, which just doesn't run anymore on the old hard drive

#

So update, I can still technically upload the other XMLs I have (well I cant because older versions error) but it still lets me. Just not my actual xml

#

I'll upload my xml here, just give me a moment

#

clearly that is broken

?

#

your xml got owned by some kind of data corruption

#

#

Bruh, so every score I have ever gotten is gone now?

#

Is there a way to extract my score data from the site itself?

#

I assume not, but I would be extremely fucking happy and thankful if it was possible

#

It's literal years of progress just gone

#

there is not a direct way to have the site do that for you

#

kangalioo has something that might do it

#

if you have previously uploaded xml to the site successfully, the download xml button has a copy of that

#

some of the contents of your xml is still present in this file but it is missing the header section

#

I hit that and I get emptyness

#

Like everything set to 0

#

Like if you started a new profile

#

I think I made a backup somewhere though

#

Though it's on the dame hard drive, so like i dunno

#

I do but it's missing my tamagotchi score

#

Which really fucking sucks

#

Oh well, I'll just try to get again some other time, just fucking blows. Why did one of the only few files I absolutely needed get corrupted?

#

ive recovered the pieces of the file that still function and put an empty header in the file to make it work

📎 Etterna.xml

#

I appreciate the help but I think I'll stick with the backup since it has the most info on it

#

I do know what happened though

#

Or I theorize

#

Somehow browser/discord data got merged into the xml somehow, but I don't care too much to speculate further

#

we have seen it happen with replays in the past but that was a scuffed distribution of windows

#

theres something very deep that can go wrong and put the wrong data in the buffer i guess

#

never really know it happens until you restart the game after saving

#

and if it saved badly, all you had to do is set another score or something and it would rewrite the whole file from scratch

#

so its all bad timing
