    So, I was working on a map I was to post to the Repo, and it was based off Small Island. I was just updating and making better in general. I was overwriting the games original files, up until I was done developing, and was going to export and change files names, etc. I cleared my cache, because I hadn't in like 2 months. Everything is gone. Is there anyway to restore what I had been working on? I had spent over 20+ hours of time into it over the last 2-3 weeks. Can anybody inform me on a resolution? Thanks!

    dang... ok. It needed some refining anyway, because it was my first map, but it was much better than what I had anticipated. oh well.

    Try looking into your recycle bin folder, if the files are there, click on them and restore them. If not, I can't help you further.

    Thanks you, I have already solved this problem, and I just uploaded my map, because I restored it earlier and fixed it.
