DANG IT! I lost my pilot that I had been working on for 305 days! I had a Rebellian Warship (The big one)!!

Okay, I duplicated my Pilots folder and saved it onto my desktop. Then, I kept the original in the EV folder. (I wanted to make a new pilot for a plug-in the same name as I had before)
So, I went back to the duplicate that was on the desktop, put it in the EV folder after taking out the original, but the duplicate had THE SAME ONES! AHHHH! So in other words. . . the duplicate kept saving pilots!!

WHAT THE HECK!

Is it possible you made an alias instead by accident? That would explain it.

When saving old pilots, I tend to make sub-folders in the pilots folder, and stick old guys in there for safekeeping until I'm done with a plug.

Also, for future reference, don't post a topic with a title in all CAPS. Mods don't appreciate that too much.

This is why I'm a loser and don't play strictly.

That isn't even remotely possible.

I'm sorry for your troubles...but once out of the EV folder, a pilot file can't be updated by progress in the game. My guess is that—in the course of shuffling pilot files around—you accidentally let the Mac replace the newer file with the older one.

Space, go to Flatulence's thread at the botton of the EV board and check out his Pilot Trading Network. You're bound to find another file like yours. Unless you whant' to spend another 300+ days.

Long live the Alien empire!

Huh? Confeds aren't aliens... just morons.

If you want to be able to buy Confed ships, destroy an alien cruiser for them.

If you want UE ships, do various missions for them.

If you want Voinian ships, do some missions for them, too.

Or use the PFTN, which is working again, to download a pilot with the ship you want.

Or cheat, if you're really desperate.
