WTF?????

Postby Shiduba » Mon Apr 06, 2009 12:58 am

My computer realized something was wrong and the Startup repair tool started doing its job. When i get to my desktop, i see Tony Hawk's American Wasteland was removed (well i downloaded it a few days ago so i think something was wrong with it.) And i saw nothing else was removed. Then I go play Alarian 2.8 (much better than fofix) and i see all my single songs are gone, and when i pick a song folder the game freezes because there are no songs!! Then i go check my songs and i realize that for some stupid reason, ALL MY SONG.INIs are GONE!!?!?!? Now i have to download all those songs again....

THANK YOU, WINDOWS VISTA

Unlucky, i take it you dont use the built in backup system on vista then...its quite handy if you have things like drive fails or data loss.

PROTIP. if something on your computer is "important to you " make a backup of it.. that way if something goes wrong you can restore it later.
EVEN tho i dont play fof anymore i still keep a copy of my songs folder backed up in a big zip file. just in case i wanna play again.

Oh and it wasnt vista's fault you had the data loss, it can happen on any OS.
REMEMBER KIDS.. always backup your data in case of problems

start>run>%appdata%>fretsonfire>fretsonfire.ini
delete fretsonfire.ini and try again

Alternatively, get FoFIX

Thanks for your help. IDK the coffee mod was ancient. FOFix v3.100 is way better after a few theme changes.
