So The last time I played on my main save ( 700+h) was last night.
Now I get from work and booting up the game only to see that my main save became incompatible.
I verified my files on steam, it had to redownload one item. rebooted my pc but it's still incompatible.
Is there something else I could try or did I lost the save?

Do you maybe have any steam cloud backups of the save you can restore locally?
Well I just looked at the settings on steam and apparently the cloud saves weren’t active. I also checked my local save files, but this is where i’m Getting confused. So I know I have to look in my %appdata% but those save files didn’t change since 06/06/2020 so I’m not sure if those are my actual files.
Check your appdata/roaming folder in users.
My bad I indeed found my save file from yesterday. I do have a back up from Oct2020. man I really should've been more active with those back ups.
you should start new game or load another save and then reload manual save.
Did that but the save still seems to be incompatible. I send in a ticket with the necessary files attached but thx for the info.
That’s tough luck man, happened to me on a small save so I didn’t bother trying to fix it, I wish you luck though
Thanks man. It Would really suck tbh not because of the hours ( well maybe a bit),but it’s actually my first save when the game came out in 2016. Would love to keep it.
