[0.9.2] Loading 0.9.1 save game crashes

Post by Rens2Sea »

My 60+ hour mod crashes in 0.9.2 when i try to load it :cry:

Mods that i'm using:
  • 0.9.1 Hotfix
  • AdvancedEquipment 0.3.1
  • Industrio 0.3.3 (fixed for 0.9.1)
  • Old World Labs 0.2.0
  • Practically Infinite Resources 0.0.1 (slightly modified for oil)
Save game here.

Well, every save game, even from new games, crashed.

Looks like it had something to do with the gui elements the AdvancedEquipment mod adds (current time and health).
Disabled those lines in the mod, but my existing saves still don't load. New ones do.

Yes, probably the gui-elements are the reason, the devs already said that it will be fixed in 0.9.3.

Anyway I might have a workaround but cannot test it because I do not want to update to 0.9.2 because of this bug.

1. make a backup of your savegames ( just in case ;) )
2. comment out the gui stuff in the mod files if they are not important, or disable the related mod completly.
3. delete the script.dat in the save-game
4. cross fingers

Aha! This is the step that I was missing.

I don't thing is my mod ( AdvancedEquipment) fault. I think every mod that add something to gui will cause the same problem. I tried all my mods separately and this bug occur. So maybe I do something wrong with gui or I don't know how to use it, or maybe DEVs broken our game ;)

If its my fault any suggestion what can I do wrong? In 0.9.1 everything works fine.
I thing that there is something wrong with game itself because there is no difference between game.player.gui.top.add and game.player.gui.left.add, everything is displayed on left.

By the way my 24+ hour save is waiting to be load. :)

So I would say it is not your fault

All of my 0.9.1 saves crash on load, and I'm not using any mods.

I had to fix 2 other bugs related to loading the save containing equipment in armor that is no longer specified (without the mod).
But yes, now I can load the save in 0.9.3 so I'm moving this to Resolved for next release.
