No, I had just installed it on the Deck so nothing synced up. There was a cloud conflict that I think got my world save all jacked up. It gave me an option to play anyways or something I can't remember exactly what it said and I clicked it and loaded in with my character, map with all my locations marked, but not a single thing I built or any of my items except what was on my body. The worst part about it was that I had buildings on nearly every island. So much work went into it, but I got it back.


I guess it ended up syncing what was on my deck, which was nothing, to the cloud. Then my PC synced to it and I was in trouble.

Thanks that makes much better sense..and why u had nothing local...sorry i forgot to mention the _Filename_backup with file dates.. oh and i think (filename).old is the original valhiem save system.. not so good w steam cloud as i understand it
