All actors turned to be instances

mike.dahlia

Hello,

I am developing that game night and day for like 7 months now and yesterday after adding an actor in my game, all the actors (not only the kind of one I added but ALL the ACTORS of the ENTIRE GAME) became instances instead of prototypes.

I have more than 15 scenes with each 300 to 600 actors in it and they all lost their properties because they are all INSTANCES instead of PROTOTYPE !

What to do ? I can't just click one by one to revert them to prototype it will take me years...

Any solution ?

Thanks !

If you've made a backup of your project (everyone should), you can continue from the last working file and re add the stuff you've done in the broken project.

To echo what MentalDonkeyGames has said . . . did you ever back your game up ?

If you contact support, via chat bubble, Monday they may be able to do something. Again as to echo the above. Backup, backup, backup. As much as a gamesalad file is overwritten, that is the amount of saves that happen over seven months can increase the odds of file corruption especially on a fragmented hard drive.
