Factorio crashes when saving to copied map files

Post by Tiggy »

I was working on a custom map that I previously backed up to another drive so I could format windows. I spent about two hours on it, and then I tried to save. The game instantly crashed with an 'unable to save' message. I was not able to continue editing or save my map. Sorry - I could not find the log file based on the instructions in the wiki.

Specs:

Windows 8.1
Intel i7 Processor.
Asus Deluxe z87 Motherboard

Go to file explorer, then at the top type "%appdata%/Factorio", then upload both .log files.

Can you also upload the map files?
