[kovarex] [1.0.0] (build 54889) Error loading save after update "level.dat not found"

Post by schaf »

Hi!
we recently got an issue after the Update. We played it about 2 hours and then the game crashed with an error, I clicked it away and started the game instantly again, tryed to open the savegame and it says: 13.829 Error AppManagerStates.cpp:1453: level.dat not found..
My mates was still on the map and saved the game after the crash. They tryed the it too to start the savegame and got the same Error from the savegame.

Vanilla game, Mods deactivated

attached file includes:
- savegame before crash: _autosave4.zip
- logs: factorio-previous.log, factorio-dump-previous.dmp
- blueprint storage: blueprint-storage-version-1.0-backup.dat, blueprint-storage.dat
- config/config.ini
- DxDiag: DxDiag.txt

It seems the stable branch was temporarily linked to a newer version and rolled back later.

Hello, I'm sorry for the problems, it is solely caused by my personal fuckup.

This is exactly what happened, we had to disable it being stable because problems were found. The causailities are the players who downloaded it in the small window and then, the steam forced them to down-grade making their saves not loadable until we make 1.1 stable again, which should hopefully be tomorrow.

Switch to the experimental branch and the save will be playable again, if you do not want to do that you need to wait for 1.1 to be declared stable.

No, it's a factorio branch that installs the latest versions of the game, see update issues in my signature on how to install it.
I'll move this topic to technical help.

1.1 was now just marked as stable, so when you update, the problem should go away.
