So there was a corruption in files....

So, as I was working on my game last night, I went to restart my computer and... RPGMVXA locked my computer.  I've used this software for years now, clocking in over 500hrs just on my current steam account alone and never had this happen. I figured "Oh well, i'll hard reset and it'll be okay."
Well, lesson learned.
Upon booting up my PC again and loading into RPGMVXA, I was met with error messages.  Of course, I spent a while trying to figure it out, move around files to see what had been corrupted, ect. Well! It turns out all my main coding files had been corrupted somehow in this hard reset. So not a single one was usable. (I tried various methods of testing and moving around files, and yea they're all corrupted)  [Images/Video/Sprites/Pre-written but not coded in text were NOT effected, and those also have backups]

GOOD NEWS! I technically did have a backup--- via the demo I put out in June. While that also doesn't have a lot of the very monotonous and time consuming work i've been doing since June, it does have a lot of the base coding that was important to the game. So! Not all is lost, just a lot of maps and coding.

This doesn't deter me, I'm still trekking on as normal, but i'd be lying to say I'm not sad at the major loss of work.

Thank you for reading, and make sure to back up your files frequently!!!!!!!!!
