I need help finding a bomb
-
Since I replaced my hard disk, I had lost my entire stamps library.
There's just 1 bomb I would love some help finding
It was a mort bomb, colored bright yellow and blue, and fairly small. I guess you could call it a shockwave bomb. It put out a good amount of pressure as well. I totally forgot the name of the save, and it isn't in my favorites.
Thanks!

Did you save the stamp as a save? If you only had it as a stamp, then try connecting your old hard drive as an external hard drive and copy the stamps folder. You can try searching your account by clicking on "My Own".

I only saved as a stamp.
I also can't connect to my old hard drive, since the reason for replacing it was becaue it failed.

@SirEarthyLeWierdMan Try searching "mort" "bomb" "shrapenel" "mort bomb" "smoke bomb" "smoke grenade" in the search

He said he only saved it as a stamp.
@SirEarthyLeWierdMan, do you still have that hard drive? You may be able to take it to a data recovery centre or something. Otherwise, you can't get any of the files back, I'm afraid.

I actually think Sir Earthy meant local save, because he says "I only saved as a stamp" and "I totally forgot the name of the save".
SirEarthyLeWierdMan, did you press "S" to save it as a stamp, which you can move around, or Ctrl+Click on the save button, to save it to your hard drive, or save it on the powder toy server? If it is the first or second ones, it is on your hard drive and you will probably have to take it to a data recovery centre or something. If it is the third one, try looking through all of your saves under "My Own".

I pressed S to save it as a stamp, and I don't have my old hard drive.

Unfortunately, there is really nothing you can do now, since the only copy is on the hard drive that I presume you threw away.

Yeah, the stamps are saved in your powder toy directory in a sub folder called stamps as .pts files I think.
Same for local saves, they are also saved in a folder called saves as .pst files I think.
These files are located in your old hard drive, they can't be viewed from somewhere else, only shared powertoy simulations can (published saves can be viewed by anyone, unpublished saves can be viewed by you or by people who know the save id).
I'm pretty sure these bombs were not super complicated and large, so try to recreate them and hope for the best :) it's not really the end of the world anyway.
