How do I recover my progress from NReality's server?

[999_Springs]

My .sol just got wiped out by Norton Internet Security 6 minutes ago. (I installed it yesterday. Somehow it was running at 75 per cent of CPU usage.) My nearest .sol backup is from 2 weeks ago but I feel that's not enough. I heard there was a way to recover my progress from NReality's server. I'm in need of that right now. How do I do it?

And in future is there a way to stop Norton Internet Security 2009 doing stuff like this!?

Don't use norton. It wiped out my .sol completely earlier this year, however, I had a backup.

I know that. Anyway Unreality mentioned something in this post about recovering progress from server to .sol, so it must be possible.

Hold down control, and click a submitted run. Make sure you are logged into that account.

Thanks, but this reveals three annoying glitches:

And it also doesn't work for Numa maps.

EDIT: Here's another one that I find the most disturbing. Unreality, is this a bug, or did you do this on purpose?

1. yes, all recovered score are version 0 in client side. Because recovered scores are out of the security black box.

2. In legit mode, legit version overwrites non legit version runs. Turn off legit mode if you don't want the higher non legit version being overwritten

3. score recovering hasn't interfered 'flavours' coding. I'm not sure but you could try to clear one of the last episode and see if the flavours come back.

for 2nd pic bug.. arr .. um... I don't know :p I'm sorry I haven't polished the score recovering function (at all) ;p

Thanks for that information.

3. score recovering hasn't interfered 'flavours' coding. I'm not sure but you could try to clear one of the last episode and see if the flavours come back.

I tried doing the 80s column - but I can't actually play it - because when I click on 86, 87, 88, or 89 from the "select episode" from "play game", the episode doesn't load. Nothing happens. I suspect it's because the progress recovery doesn't realise that I have actually unlocked the episodes even though I have a score on them. [Edit: I think that solving this one will solve the flavours bug. This is because flavours are dependent on what episodes have been unlocked/completed, and not the actual scores. It's the same in v1.4.]

The only "version 0" scores I have are on the 80s column. So I should have 10 flavours for 9 columns completed. But I still only have 9 flavours. [Edit: It's the same in v1.4.]

Am I going to be stuck forever?

[Edit: I am actually seeing replays of "version 0" scores in the start screen of NReality. I wonder what that means.]

iirc NReality6d4 recovery function done better jobs... try it

<`999_Springs> AAAAAARGH Norton just wiped my .sol file *AGAIN*!!
<`999_Springs> Second time in 8 days!
* `999_Springs explodes
<ninja143> Thats why I *Hate* Norton
<Izzy> COUGH!
<Izzy> BACKUP!
<Izzy> COUGH!
<`999_Springs> Latest backup was 24th August.
<`999_Springs> And I *HATE* Norton.
<ninja143> I have a hard time doing it with vista
<`999_Springs> But my parents make me use Norton,
<`999_Springs> and their argument goes along the lines of,
<`999_Springs> "It was half price, so don't waste it.".
<`999_Springs> When I know that there are so many free alternatives online
<`999_Springs> that are better than it.

<ninja143> [Norton is] a terrible antivirus that some people swear will protect the computer when in fact it infects it *BAD*

Could take a while...
