Monster Hunter Earth: Iceborne  was just launched on PC last week, easily climbing on to Steam's elevation x concurrent players online. While the majority of players take had a stress-complimentary launch feel, a sizeable number of players had bug with the game. This ranges from performance issues, where bulky PCs are dropping to single frames, to technical problems, where players can't fifty-fifty launch the game. Nevertheless, the worst problem of all seems to exist one player dread the most: Save file deletion.

The cause of save file deletion is however unknown at this signal. Some players are speculating that it might have to do with very erstwhile save files not being updated before Iceborne's launch. Old players who have not logged in for some time and have only restarted Monster Hunter World considering of Iceborne could be greeted with the following prompt:

"Failed to read saved data for Monster Hunter: Iceborne. Create new relieve data?"

Picking "yeah" would overwrite the save file and create a new, Iceborne compatible salvage file. This would overwrite the current Monster Hunter World save file on the PC, leading to the old file'south deletion. Right now, it is possible to recover the sometime relieve file, provided that information technology was saved in Steam's Cloud. However, if the game was quit and the salvage file was synced, and then it is possible that the old salve file could not be recovered anymore.

Saving and recovering your Monster Hunter Earth salvage file

For those who unfortunately got hit past this huge oversight, nosotros've compiled a way for you to recover your old save file (assuming it's still non deleted either locally or through the cloud) and convert it to be Iceborne compatible.

Beginning, find your old save file. Y'all can find this in "[Steam install folder]\user data\[Your Steam ID]\582010\remote\SAVEDATA1000". If you don't know what your Steam ID is, take a wait at this post from Steam.

If you've already overwritten information technology locally, it might be possible to download your one-time save file, provided it was uploaded before the Iceborne patch. You can notice it on https://store.steampowered.com/account/remotestorageapp/?appid=582010. Download these files to your PC.

Next, you'll have to download MHWSaveTransfer. This program can be found in Nexus Mods (link here). You'll too need a electric current Iceborne salve file. Nexus mods have i uploaded here.

You'll then have to open MHWSaveTransfer. From in that location, go to file> Open Save Data and select the Iceborne salvage file (not your own save file).

Change the file's steam ID to yours. It's the same number equally the one y'all got your relieve file from. Once you've changed the number, go to file>Import Salvage Information and choose your Quondam save file.

Using the interface, Drag, and drop your character to the left. And so choose file>Save Save data and and then overwrite your erstwhile save file at "[Steam install folder]\user data\[Your Steam ID]\582010\remote\SAVEDATA1000"

Then boot the game up. You'll probably accept to reset your settings and key bindings. But subsequently, you lot should be able to login to Iceborne with your one-time save data.

Do take note that this method doesn't piece of work all the fourth dimension. While the method has a positive success rate, in that location are a few users who have problem making it work. The best we can do without going through this process is to look for Capcom to fix and patch the relieve file problem.
