Диггерман – Как восстановить потерянный прогресс

Before Starting

Прежде чем начать, make sure you have a saved game with a few zones beat. I did not find a way to restore progress on a zone you have not beaten yet without breaking the save, so you’ll need to manually beat each level once on a save and potentially repeat this process a few times to unlock everything.

Find the Save File

Using Explorer, пойти в “С:\Программные файлы (х86)\Steam\userdata\%yourUserNumber%\1001600\remote”, где “%yourUserNumber%” will be a numbered folder.

Открыть “SaveData_Slot_0.xml”. Slot_0 is the first slot. Slot_1 is the second slot, and Slot_2 is the third slot. Open it in your favorite text editor. Notepad++ is excellent for this. Make a backup by copying the contents to another file and save it somewhere safe. You can use the backup to restore your previous, working save. If you try to load it in the game and it goes to black without loading, your save is broken. Undo what you did last over restore to your original save.

Make small changes and load it to make sure it worked. It is easy to brake the save.

There are two main ones you’ll want to change, one for artifacts found, and the second for gold in the bank.

Artifacts Unlocked

The first is in a section called “<stringPrefs>”. You’ll see a value like below, but perhaps shorter or longer depending on how many zones you’ve gotten to:

The first number after the colon is the zone number. The second is how many артефакты you’ve gotten. To max out a zone, make it a 10, so it would look like:

A completed game will have the following, but you’ll want to unlock the levels by playing them before setting the number of artifacts for it.

Gold in the Bank

The second value to update is the fifth<интервал> value under <intPrefs>. That is your current gold count. You can increase is to give you more gold to spend. So you might change the following, где 15 is the number of gold you had:

To the following to restore money you used to have:

Wrap Up

I hope you found this guide useful for restoring game progress you had made. I know it is certainly tough to lose progress after grinding for it if you change steam users or switch from mobile to PC.
