Topic: Account, saves and cars
The game starts the prologue, your progress looks a few events behind, or your career is gone after an update or a crash. Most of the time the save is still there and the game is simply using a different profile or an older revision.
Before you try anything: close the game and copy data\titles from your Azimuth folder to somewhere safe.
1. The launcher points at the wrong Azimuth folder
If you have more than one Azimuth folder, the launcher may be using one without your save. Check the folder in the launcher's settings.
2. Your progress is in the other profile
Plain Azimuth uses User_9000000000000, FH2MP uses User_<your account ID>. Progress you made in one doesn't appear in the other. See [Where your saves are and which folder is which](/tutorials/save-folders).
To bring it over:
1. Open Settings > Save manager in the launcher.
2. Choose Import Azimuth save into FH2MP (or pick another profile or backup folder with Choose profile / backup folder...).
3. Click Back up and copy save.
3. The newest revision is broken
After a crash or a PC freeze, the newest save revision can be damaged and the game starts fresh. Azimuth keeps the previous revision:
1. Open data\titles\1A96545B\saves\player-1\User_<...>\revisions.
2. Copy the whole revisions folder somewhere safe.
3. Move the newest revision folder (highest number) out of revisions.
4. Start the game. It now loads the older revision.
If that doesn't help, put the folder back and try with your own backups.
4. A modded car or part breaks the save
A save with a car from a removed car pack, or with custom parts, can fail to load or crash. Put the mod back, or restore a revision from before you used it. See [One car crashes the game](/tutorials/car-crashes-game).
It was really deleted
There are no cloud saves in FH2MP or Azimuth. If the Azimuth folder was deleted, the save can't be recovered from the server. From now on, use [Backing up your saves](/tutorials/backing-up-saves).
