Been Playing COD WAW on the server for some time now. Have built up perks and load-outs on two of the main servers for it........all of a sudden this evening, I find that one still has my perks and stuff and the other has dropped everything that was built up..........right back to basic start. Wondering if this is something common? How to fix it. If it means going through the whole process again.............I'm not going to waste my time. Anyone got a clue???

You go in local disc then in files: users/home/appdata/local/activision/codwaw/players/(your game name). under your player save all the stuff there then you can copy in this same folder when you loose your stuff. It helped a few times when my old pc crashed often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Not very successfully. I guess I'm not looking in the right place for the hidden files advice. One admin that was on said to play the game for a few minutes and the stuff would come back..............played through three cycles and still no change. If simply playing on the server brings about a correction, I'll try it a while longer. But if I have to go through the whole thing to regain stuff, then I'll have to give it up. In the earlier CODS I knew how to replace the documents that contained the profile.........but Windows 10 and the WAW are more frustrating than I'm very interested in putting up with.

If you never played DM3 when it was running before, you should still rank up to unlock all weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

In Win 10 type hidden files in search bar, in results go down to explorer and click on hidden files column, follow instructions, without this you won't see anything.

So what I'm reading is that the mod that WAS on the 3rd server has been moved to the 2nd server and that caused the change? But if I played on what was server 3, I should go back there and play and things will reset? I've got a backup profile that I did before moving to WIN 10. But I do not see the "MAIN" file in the hidden files in order to swap it in. What is interesting is that my profile shows the four star and next prestige ranking as if all the buildup was ok...............but the loadouts don't allow anything but the lowest ranking loadouts...................no reticle for the Thompson, no grip for the shotgun, none of the loadouts for tanks, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
