Hello,

today i have lost my whole progress, all unlocked decks, cards etc. Is there any way to unlock the cards from editing the WAD files?
Im very frustrated at the moment... i hope somebody can help me.

Editing the original WAD files is not recommended, better making copies of the files to edit. I tried to make a copy of each deck with the game's Steam ID in place of their own unlock IDs. I don't know if it works, but trying can't make your situation worse. Extract it to your game directory and cross your fingers. :wink:

Tested it. Replaced the decks in the "original" WAD file with your decks. The game crashes in loading screen and creats a minidump to attach for a bugreport :/

Don't replace the decks in the original WAD file, just extract my WAD to your game directory.

Well, all the mods use the Steam ID trick to get the unlocks already unlocked, and I have never heard any complaint about that. Try to delete (and maybe backup, even if it should be useless now) your profile after placing my WAD file in the game directory.

Wait, are you already using some mods? If not, you are probably missing the DLL for signature check disabling: viewtopic.php?f=99&t=10896

I had the same problem once. I just deleted the Save directory and everything worked fine for me (of course I had to start the game from the beginning) [I have the Skidrow version of the game]

the reason why u lost your whole progress is that if u change your game.exe (or modifie it at any time) the game creates a new hash file if u change the .exe back it resets the whole profile

(actually that happend to me with a different game.exe) maybe there are other files that does that too
