Corrupt Save games

Post by CptMayday »

Hi there,

First off, love the game! Unfortunately I've been running into an issue with the New Hope Level 2. I've tried two attempts to beat the level but the following happened:

1st try.
Played the level for a few hours, saved my progress and quit the game. Later I returned and I couldn't load the save games anymore due to missing or misplaced objects. Unfortunately I didn't save the error message, but I did back up the save game files. (attached: proper01.zip, proper02.zip and proper03.zip)

2nd try.
I was sad that I lost my progress, but you know... let's try it again but better this time. I played even further and the game crashed (generic windows error stating the application is no longer responding).

I have both a manual save (newtry.zip) and the autosaves, they give me a different error though:
[new try] - when trying to load this I get the following error and the user interface highlights the next savegame instead (after showing the error).
- Deserialisation error, target with id 3126 doesn't exist

[autosave]
- error on loading that crashes the game.

I've attached a copy of the current error log and the previous error log.

I would love to know if this was related to the map, my system or what is happening. Losing all progress after multiple attempts is rather frustrating, so any input is welcome.

[system specs]
windows 10
GTX 760
Intel Core i5 4670K (not overclocked)
8gb ram

Thank you in advance and have a great weekend!

There was a bug in 0.12.25 making saves for New Hope 2 (the train level) unplayable which was fixed for 0.12.26, but you need to restart that level on 0.12.26 for it to work.

I just checked the Steam Community Hub and saw the quick patch notes. This one caught my eye:

Code: Select all

That's awesome! I can't try it right now, but I will give this another go this weekend.

Thanks for creating this awesome game. My inner engineer is as happy as a 5 year old on Christmas morning :D
