(solved)Accidentally deleted my very first sim from the library
Okay, so I'm not sure if this should be in a different thread, or over at AHQ, but I figured this section was a safe bet.
I deleted my very first sim from the library today. I didn't mean to! There was some sort of glitch where she was appearing like five times in a row, so I thought way back when I first created her I must have saved her several times (in case of this very event). BUT I hadn't done that. It really was just a glitch, because I couldn't find her in the library again after that. I didn't delete all of the weird glitch copies, but one of the ones I deleted must have been the original.
Now, in my game, she's passed on and is a ghost. And I know that there are ways to bring sims back in game, and I could get the book of life or make ambrosia, then save her to my library. But none of my sims have the skills right now (maybe there's a way to cheat to get them up?), and before I spend all my time trying to get her back by playing the game, I just wanted to know...is there another way? Because what I haven't told you yet is, surprise! I backed everything up a month and a half ago when I switched computers. So I know I still have her somewhere but I don't know anything beyond that (really not so much a computer person :sweat_smile: ), but I know she's around.
Is there a way I can get her from my back up and onto my main computer? Is it at all possible that I could upload her to the gallery from my game on my old computer (I think she passed away before the computer switch, so is a ghost there as well, but I don't know how the library works or if she'd still be on that one), then download her on my current one? If none of these work, just let me know and I'll get started on my ambrosia skills. :D
Thanks everyone!
Edit: thanks for the help, you guys are absolute life savers! My sim is saved from the netherworld of lost computer things, and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts! ♥️
