I'm trying to be patient and wait for the magic to happen, but as of the 1.1.5 beta release, this map/scenario no longer works and the anticipation of 2.0 is killing me. Any news?

I'll see what I can do with that info. I assume I can lift those files out of a freeplay 1.1 save and copy them into the "broken" save?

Is this something that the migration process could/should catch? Or is that script left alone because it is non-standard to start with?

After the first crash, it's refused to crash again the same way and simply reports a truncated error message in a dialog and the returns to the main screen (probably what you are seeing). The save file loads fine and the game runs with no issues under 1.0 on both Mac and Linux. If I switch to 1.1.5 ...

Here is a link for a version of a save file that loads fine in 1.0 but crashes consistently on 1.1.5 on Mac and Linux.

It is simply too large to attach to a forum message. Sorry, but nothing I can do about htat.

The save file is 464 megabytes. I provided a link to the scenario files in my initial post, which, if you install under 1.0 will create a save file that fails to open in 1.1.5.

After launching the game, I attempted to load a very large map ( https://mods.factorio.com/mod/Nauvis-Post-Collapse ) that had been loaded, played, and saved under 1.0. The net result was a crash with no recovery. Here's the relevan...

Why did this get moved to the support forum? It's not a support issue. It's a reproducible bug with specific hardware/software combinations. The exact same game, settings, etc. (from a shared hard drive) when run on a 2017 MacBook Pro don't happen. Maybe it's going to be fixed in a future release, b...

What happens if you turn graphics settings down? Well, the poor little card only has 512M of VRAM, so the settings are pretty much at their lowest all the time. This seems to be related to some sort of inversion effect (OpenGL?) that isn't handled correctly by this card or OpenGL version. Dunno if ...

There is a bug with the Deconstruction Planner on older Mac Pros with discrete video cards that has been mostly a cosmetic nuisance but with recent releases is now a serious bug. Here are some brief particulars of the Mac platform I am using: Running (according to Get Info) Factorio 0.16.51 Mac Pro ...
