So I attempted to export a campaign into a module that I then use in another campaign and during the process it crashed. I assume it happened because I added two really large maps during the last couple of weeks of work.
When I attempted to restart FG from Steam it actually acted as if the client was not installed and asked me repeatedly where to install the client. I bypassed this by going to the FG folder itself and updating it and starting it there.
When I tried to reopen the campaign it asked me if I wanted to use the 2024 ruleset by default giving me the impression that the client now thought I was running this campaign for the very first time. It also was completely empty. It had no story, images, encounters or parcels. If I go into the campaign folder in explorer I can see all the images there but they do not show up and the story which contained a full 4 chapters is completely missing along with any hint of the folders. Basically there is no hint that anything was ever made.
Every other campaign I loaded also asked me if I wanted to use the 2024 ruleset but it has all the content I made in there.
My backup works but it is missing at least 20+ hours worth of work. Not sure how to proceed. Do I just accept the lost work and redo the 20+ hours or is there something in the campaign I could look at to see if it would start reading the content? It’s like the export function broke the campaign when it crashed FG.
