You’re probably wondering why I haven’t been posting lately. I’ve been playing Feed The Beast (Direwolf20 pack) again with angry. It’s reached a point I decided to once again, play in Single Player and do what I’ve learned from it.
But this isn’t about what I went though. This is about something incredibly stupid I just did, and how I put the blame on MultiMC.
Basically, I’ve been unhappy with what my house looked like, and thought of using one of Keralis’ builds to spice it up. I was originally going to just build it in a Creative world and then just take pictures of it and hand-copy/paste it.
Instead I went on the MRT Server, thinking I had it there in one of my old storage things underground of one of my builds.
Upon launching MultiMC, I noticed the instance I had for FTB was still there. I had tried to launch FTB through MultiMC, but it ran out of memory before it could finish and have been using the launcher instead.
I decided to delete it, and got warned that it would be ‘lost forever’. Little did I know, those words would mean so much to me. So I went on the MRT, got to where I had thought it would be stored, and I didn’t have it there. Forgot I had it removed a very long time ago.
So I thought “I guess my only option is just to rebuild it”. Closed out MultiMC and fired up the FTB Launcher. And then I launched as normal, with the Direwolf20 pack selected.
It began downloading the mod pack. I thought it was just an update, yet I would had been informed if there was. After it finished, it took like 30 seconds until it finally began to launch.
Getting in, I hit Single Player…. and my mouth drops to the floor when I do NOT see my save game. I was all “No… NO!! NO NO NO!!” But yes. All the work for like a month… ALL FUCKING GONE!!!!!!
My world: Gone! My backups: Gone! My settings: Gone! It all got resetted, all because I fucking deleted that instance by mistake! And on top of that, MultiMC has the nerve to put the instance back in!
I don’t know what to do now. Scream bloody murder? That isn’t going to get my world back. I’m literally forced to start all over again. Like all the work I did, is now null and void. All the Ender Pearls I collected. All the machines I made. All the pipes I laid out. There. All. Gone. Like it never happened. Yet the sickening thing is.. IT DID!!
I’m going through the five stages of anger right now. It’ll be awhile until I move into Stage 5… because I’m going to be stuck between Stage 2(Anger) and 4(Depression) for a LONG time.
But at least, I don’t have to worry about how ugly the house is. :/
.
EDIT: I feel I hit Stage 5(Acceptance) quicker than I thought. Yes, it’s lost, but I can use what I learned to make a new one. Direwolf alone, he goes through what are known as Episodes. Where the pack is, is Episode 7. So he’s been doing this for several years.
I don’t see how he does it, without feeling anything of his previous episodes. Mainly because, he has backups and I don’t. Though his backups aren’t local ones.
And I also… *sighs* I also stopped being mad at MultiMC. It’s my fault, not it. I had forgotten there’s an option to show FTB instances. And that option can also be disabled to hide the instance to not me accidentally deleting it again.
EDIT2: Angry tried to help me by getting a program called ‘Recuva’, that helps to recover lost data. Unfortunately, all the .mca map data of the world is missing. There is the map data from the Nether, but that’s it.
So talk about putting salt in the wound.
