 This is a temporary issue with the game which will get fixed, but until then, this is what you need to know:
-Switching to Cloud takes the files off your computer, from My Documents > My Games > Terraria > Your Character Name. Aside from your .plr player file which keeps character info, what we're interested in are the .map files. For various reasons what can happen is that the file that gets downloaded back either has one extra period before the extension, say 11111..map instead of 11111.map, or doesn't get downloaded at all. If it has extra periods, remove and keep the extension. If you don't see the extension then just remove all extra periods at the end of it.

-If you don't have your map data files there, try looking in your Steam cloud temporary folder which can be found at Steam\userdata\ <userid> \ <appid> \remote (appid is 105600 for Terraria and you should only have one userid, open all and the one with more folders is the one you're looking for). It should be there. If it ain't there or in your My Documents location, get a file recovery software (i have had luck with Recuva) and point it in the Steam cloud temporary location. With luck it's recoverable. (this can happen when no valid files are present in the my docs location, so you cloud, local then cloud). If you have more than one set of files, go for the most recent set (the one with more periods or last modified date is latest) and remember that each is saved per world you character has visited.
