[SOLVED] [0.12.20] Error: No loader found for "rail".

Post by kwstoudt »

Hello there.
I haven't played this game in a couple years. So naturally, when I started it up, it wanted to update. The last version I played on was 0.12.2. I allowed it to update, and it got up to 0.12.20 and then closed. I went to start it up again, and it got 2% into loading, when it throws an error message: 'No loader found for "rail".' When I click the 'OK' button, the game shuts down. I would like to be able to update it the rest of the way.

Any suggestions?

Hi, delete or uninstall Factorio and redownload the latest version from the website. If you use version from ZIP package (not installed from msi installer), don't forget to backup your saves from inside Factorio folder.
