Hey Wavey! Bro, don't know which build you had your saves "saved" in. We're all flyin' the latest release, build 1.828, in MP. Have you tried flying your profile(s) just in SP in this build ? The installer should have upgraded your profile(s) with the appropriate crypto and etc., at incept. Hopefully, you will not be compelled to begin afresh. ;)

BTW, Welcome Back, Dude !

As a final resort perhaps Vice can fiddle with a profile for you :)

:o Okay, I was just wondering. A long time ago, in a galaxy far away, old pilot profiles had to be converted for use with newer versions of the game. If you made that conversion, then I have no idea why your profiles no longer work.
