Rei Waypoint missing?

[penfold1992]

I just updated from 3.1.2 to 3.1.3 and most things appear to have gone ok for me at least, I am yet to find a MAJOR problem but there is one thing...

I had waypoints on 3.1.2 and now i dont have any waypoints... where are they stored? would I have likely overwritten them? are they possible to retrieve?

thanks in advance

They should be located in %appdata%\.techniclauncher\tekkit\mods\rei_minimap.

If the mods folder was rebuilt by the update, it's possible that the file got deleted...

Yep, always happens during update. Consider the file gone forever.

I love how it deletes EVERYTHING when you update. Server list, minimap waypoints, and last but definitely not least, your goddamn singleplayer saved games. Not even a quack of a warning. Had I lost my Technic 6 world with all those custom mods that took a lot of effort to install, I would've punched a baby in the groin. I've been using computers for ages so thankfully I'm paranoid about backing up before even the most insignificant action.

oh wait... single player saves? -.- dammit i had some test builds using redpower (as im a total noob with redpower) and also a power flower factory design.... now those are gone.

Umm...I don't know about you guys, but when I start updating my Technic/Tekkit, the first thing the launcher does is zip up my current files into a backup folder. Then it does it's thing with the new updates. If there are things I need to get back (saves, configs, waypoints, etc.) I just go digging into that backup file and copy them out.
