#save your progress

[ciquery]

I spent roughly two hours consolidating my emotional and academic experience of a Romanian castle into a few short paragraphs for an excited instagram post, then I swiped away to double-check the boundaries between Transylvanian and Wallachian forests.. then swiped back to my instagram app.. which independently chose to reset. Without saving any of my tediously edited thoughts. Which I’m presently incapable of recreating to the same beat.

Tragic. And so banal. Mostly banal. This isn’t my first rodeo, yet here I am again. Months later.

This castle is worth describing a second time though. There’s something so gratifying about revisiting happy moments, then locking in the curious ideas and stories it stirs up. I’ll draft another needless perspective later :) Personal joys are like that, thankfully

SAVE YOUR PROGRESS

save your progress after just finishing that fiddly bit in the fancy shoe. Don't think to yourself "i'll just go a tiny bit further first. I'll just move on and add text now cuz we're done with the hard stuff".

NO. that is the devil talking.

(and i'm not only saying this because my software crashed and now i gotta do the damn fiddly bits all over again.) (ok, yes I am)

Save your work progress now :)

Reminder to... 💫Save Your Progress💫 on whatever project you are working on

I made a beautiful intro to an AMV I started and as soon as I rebooted my computer with the file open... All progress vanished!!!

Don’t be like me! Press “save”

So I had quite the scare yesterday...

Since I downloaded some new mods for my game, I decided that I would finally change my game language from my native one to English. Otherwise the options would be in different languages and that would drive me crazy.

So I change the language, download all the new files which are apparently needed, open my game and...

Gone. All my saves are gone.

Mild freak out because, even if I haven’t uploaded much of my story, lots of hours have already been spent on making that save, and it seemed like I lost it forever.

Luckily, I found out soon after that all the bases files simply duplicated and the old ones still were where they had always been. And after swapping the files everything is back in order and I don’t seem to have lost anything.

So, if anyone else changes the language of their game; Be aware of this and make a backup of your saves just to be sure!

Game: *randomly prompts me to save*

Me: It's about to go down
