How to do a Hard Reset (ver 1.2.28.105394 week 53)

What Your Doing

This is a hard reset for your Icarus game.

Following these steps, you will lose all progress, currency, and characters.

Account Prep

With the migration of account data, you need to prep your account.

Open Icarus

Click play [you might have to migrate data]

Delete all existing characters

Create 1 new Character

Start a open world (difficulty doesn't matter)

re-enter the pod and end the mission

This is to give a Clean slate and acknowledge data migration has already happened.

Where To Go?

you need to go to your user folder (typically found at c:/users [your username here])

follow the network path

open AppData [may be hidden]

open Local

open Icarus

open Saved

open PlayerData

open [a bunch of numbers likely starting in 76] [this 76 number is your personal steam id number]

Edit Profile.json

open profile.json in notepad

replace the existing data with the below (EXCEPT THE USER ID, KEEP YOUR 76 NUMBER)

(REPLACE THE BOLD TEXT WITH YOUR 76 NUMBER)

{

"UserID": "REPLACEME",

"MetaResources": [

{

"MetaRow": "Credits",

"Count": 0

},

{

"MetaRow": "Exotic1",

"Count": 0

},

{

"MetaRow": "Refund",

"Count": 0

}

],

"UnlockedFlags": [],

"Talents": [

],

"NextChrSlot": 10,

"DataVersion": 2

}

Edit Metainventory.json

open Metainventory.json with notepad

it is safe to replace the contents of this file with the below:

{

"InventoryID": "MetaInventoryID_Main",

"Items": [

]

}

DONE!

In theory, you should now have a character at level 1 or zero, no unlocks and no mission completes.

good luck and stay safe out there.

If you have issues, let me know and i'll attempt to help (and update this guide)
