I just lost my whole base.
Hi all.
As in the title.
I loaded up my usual server and was looking into the map... when all of a sudden, my char fell, and 99% of my base just VANISHED.
It was legit built, no cheats no creative mode.
It is tho, in the very first server I've made, way back when the game launched. It was cloud sync'd too, and I had no problems with it just until now.
Anyone has a clue on what happened?
Any way I can recover it all?

You can try this:
1. Open the game.
2. Start Game.
3. Manage saves.
4. Worlds
5. Double click on your world and it should drop down a tree with backs-ups.
6. Load one of those. You might lose progress so be careful!
I would post a screenshot if steam allowed it.

What is a char?
If you mean chair, did you click something as you fell?

Steam allows it but you made your profile private and turned it off. You can try this:
1. Open the game.
2. Start Game.
3. Manage saves.
4. Worlds
5. Double click on your world and it should drop down a tree with backs-ups.

Hey, thx for the response. "Char" as in "character". I was standing on the second floor of my base, when it all of a sudden vanished, thus the fall.
I'll try and do what you told me. Thanks!
As for you not being allowed to post screenshots, I'll try and figure out how to enable them.
Thanks again!

Thank you, I did not know that. My profile is visible for my friends.

Wow, I'm sorry.
I was so upset that I had lost it all, that I didn't see that it was *you* who told me what to do in the first place.
Well it worked! Thanks a lot!

Hmm...after seeing the screens...could it be that an admin is trying to mock you? That almost circular area of "deletion" (it just looks like it...) looks suspiciously like admin tool use...

Thanks! It's 100% legit. I've built huge things on other servers, ever since I've found out about "nocost", hehe... but in this particular one it's all done the old fashioned viking way!

An admin... of the game? Like a game dev?
I don't see why, but I guess they could, if they wanted to.
If you mean a server admin... that would be me. ^^'
This is the first wolrd I've made in Valheim, never opened it to public. Only invited a few friends to look around.
Dunno why it would've bugged like that.

Congrats on getting your base back! Looks cool, I just start with a cabin and gradually expand by adding floor tiles and walls as I add stuff to it, you actually have some design sense!

So you played single player? It sounded like you logged into a server in your first post...

Yeah, sorry, single player. I should've said "It's the firs WORLD I've made". The panic of havinf lost losing it all didn't allow me to think straight.

Thanks! I expanded on a ruin I've found. My very first base in the game was made just like you said- adding modules on a pre-existing building. Might post some screenshots of it should you want to see.
