2.3.3 Hotfix | Blueprint Location

On Friday we released the 2.3.3 update, a smaller patch wrapping up the 2.3 update cycle with a whole bunch of fixes and some smaller changes. One of those was the addition of a Save Migration feature for cases where the default save location had switched. Unfortunately it seems like in some cases this feature was not behaving as intended.

So with this update we have decided to disable this feature with the intent to take a deeper look at it and potentially bring it back in the future when we are more happy with how it is behaving and we are sure it is not going to negatively impact the experience.

If you have experienced your blueprints moving location, the below will hopefully point you in the correct direction for where to find them, and how to get them visible in game again.

The default save location for Trailmakers is C:\Users\%UserName%\Documents\TrailMakers but this can change to a handful of fallback locations depending on various factors. These locations can be:

C:\Users\%UserName%\TrailMakers

C:\Users\%UserName%\OneDrive\TrailMakers

C:\Users\%UserName%\OneDrive\Documents\TrailMakers

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Trailmakers

If you start up the game and you suddenly don’t see your Blueprints then you should check each of the above locations. The easiest way of doing this the following:

1. On your desktop, open a new File Explorer Window (Windows Key + E can be used as a shortcut for this).

2. In the address bar at the top (pictured below) you can copy in one of the above locations and press Enter. It will take you to that folder, if it exists, and you can see if your files are there.

If you find your blueprints in one of these locations but do not see them in game, then the location the game is using has changed due to the game not being able to read/write from the previous location when it last attempted to.

The easiest way of checking which location the game is currently using is opening the Builder in a game mode, navigating to the Blueprint Inventory and then clicking the Folder button, this will open the Blueprint Folder currently being used.

If you have blueprints in a different location to the one that opens when clicking the Folder icon, you can copy them into that location and they should appear in your inventory again.
