New Install

[Rockhaggis]

Hi 
Following a catastrophic  system failure ... I have had to completely replace my PC system.
I have saved the HD that had all ETS2 & ETS2_MP files on.

My question is is there a link to or can anyone advise here ... of the install process of both that will ALSO restore my MP in game data.
I have been playing for some time and would not like to have to restart my character from scratch! 

I tried but obviously got it wrong ... it just fires up ETS2 single player .. asking for me to create a new character !! 

PS the whole 'Steam' thing confuses me ... but I guess its part of the equation too. 
Regards Rockhaggis

Hey There! 

 

 

Please look at the this topic:

copy the ~/Documents/ETS2/profiles folder from your old HD to your new one

Nice English.

 

ETS2 saves are client sided. You can download a save from internet.

There's not really MP data that is saved. Your singleplayer savegame is used to play online. So if you can't recover that, I'm afraid that you will need to restart / download a save game from the internet.

Thanks all  ....SOLVED.

It was a case of 
Copying both the ETS2 and ETS2MP folders from my old Documents folder into the New one and including ETS2MP as a non Steam app in my Steam account.

Both working though I only play MP.. and all my history is intact.

Thanks again all
