    Brief:
    Online last Fri/Sat prior to latest update stats and licence all good/normal. PIC 1 from 22/01/22
    Update to latest after deletion of documents folder except for 'savegame' and 'records'
    Online Sunday, P/Q session finish. Race start and screen goes black , no sound.
    restart game .All race stats changed / lost... PIC 2.
    Any idear what gone wrong. If stats recoverable?
    Only thing correct still is licence
    I have asked before why Ams2 is not saved by steamcloud. as in other games for the same reason as above just after system was implemented??
    It is 2nd time this has happened Ams2

    Your profile including "safety rating" is inside the default.sav file. You can copy that file, share it, and edit it with a hex-editor. It can get corrupted quite easily by losing internet in a MP session.

    In PCARS 2 you coulkd also easily cheat the system be deactivating all outgoing communication of the app, a.k.a disabling steam cloud and downloads in the background.

    What I see in your screeshots is what happens when a corrupted default.sav gets overwritten by steam.

    You are lucky, because the last time I deleted the whole AMS2 folder after an update, I started again with U1500.

    I will look again later, maybe meantime save folder copies now and again.
    I saved screen shots of progression since last time this happened after system was introduced.

    Lesson learned;)
    Glad I never started up a MP career in AMS2:p

    ByTheWay: Then I saw this. Maybe I should start a career and then start my hex editor up to "tweak" my rating a bit. Hmmm :whistle:
