Do we need to do anything special when upgrading to a newer version of DF2010? Specifically, I'm upgrading from vr0.31.12 to vr0.31.14, but the page should be updated for all DF2010 versions. --[[User:Romeofalling|Romeofalling]] 21:33, 28 September 2010 (UTC) | Do we need to do anything special when upgrading to a newer version of DF2010?

The Continue Playing menu isn't showing many of the saved game folders that I have. Now, some of those folders are not showing up because I Abandoned the fortress, but I copied those files out and then pasted them back into the save game folder after abandoning them, so shouldn't they show up now? --Romeofalling 01:21, 27 September 2010 (UTC)
- Um... in order to safely savescum, you need to copy the ENTIRE region folder as a unit. Copying bits and pieces out of that folder, and then pasting them back in, won't necessarily create a valid savegame. --DeMatt 06:43, 27 September 2010 (UTC)
- I was copying the region folders entirely. What I wasn't doing was deleting the old folder before copying the backup back to save/. Thank you, whoever updated with that info. --Romeofalling 21:32, 28 September 2010 (UTC)
Upgrading to a new version

So, let's say I need to restore not from my latest save, but my season save that was made a few minutes earlier. How do I do so without it going all sideways? For example, when I restore that save most things seem okay, except the military seems to be doing whatever I'd told it to do after the save (say a move command) and while everyone is in uniform the military screen shows all squads empty. The article doesn't seem clear on how one restores that save without everything being broken.--58.122.40.118 02:40, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
