I was working on a Puppet, and download the OkaySamurai Puppet "Sirr" for references, but when I opened it delete all the work I have done in my puppet, rigs, behaviours, triggers... all gone. 😞

 

Is there any way to find the autosave files of my puppet?

Ch auto saves by default. Are you sure it did not start a new project? Maybe your character is in a different project, or it just changed focus to the adobe character instead of yours. I would check the project panel list of puppets, then also check the list of recently opened projects.

I've tried that, the new file replace all I had in the Project tab

even a few puppets I was using as reference from the example puppets tab.

 

I guess my mistake was to trust only the autosave 😞 insted of saving, saving the project. But was so handy that everything was always there everytime I open Ch.

If you are sure it did not swap puppets, the other thing to do is to look at the history panel - it allows you to go back in time. But it is dangerous, as making a change can lose changes after that point in time. So i generally don't recommend using it (scary).
