    Yesterday i lost all my liveries, ive never heard of this happening, its never happened, and i sure could never have anticipated it.
    The only error that we are all able to anticipate is the on going one where your editing and it just gives you an error and the whole game closes.

    But yesterday i was in the middle of making a class 379 on a 377 model and id finished one, copied it to make another but with different coloured doors.

    Next thing i saw an error msg, all my liveries were wiped but the game never closed.

    I really hope there is someway i can get them back but i have a feeling there wont be, should be saved to my profile but i dont know because i restarted the game and my stuff is still missing.

    Losing liveries is a known issue and there should hopefully be a fix

    I've tried both the livery designer and the scenario planner, but it's sad to say that both of them are in no way a professional solution.
    So the question isn't, if errors occur but when and how often.
    Knowing a bit about the method how considerations are taken I assume it'll go like this:
    -Is this a game breaking bug, so you can't play the game anymore?
    -If not, please wait until its priority is at the top of the list ... maybe at Christmas .... 2022

    I’ve read posts that suggest copying liveries is the cause of the bug. As you copied a livery, that is consistent with the other reports. I’ve not read about anyone being able to recover their lost work.

    Yeah this is the nail in the coffin i guess..
    I either have copied once before or thought about it, cant remember.
    Also that same day minutes before, if copied and had no issue, but when i did it again, the game musta thought na your wanting to have too many 379s..
    ..So it goes ahead and takes EVERY single creation. #theliberty #soupset

    Copying just makes thing so much easier and convenient - for those who know about putting work effort and time into making a livery, what a bloody shame thats the outcome at the moment

    I feel your pain. It's incredibly demoralizing to have all your work just disappear.

    That's easy. When you select 'Settings' - 'Application Saved Data Management' - 'Saved Data in System Storage' the next menu offers to 'Delete' files, which are grouped by game (of course). There should be one file with a description like "TSWSaveGame_<YourUserID>".
    If you don't want to delete files, from the same menu (with the delete option) you can also do a 'Copy to USB storage device'.
