Hey,

With recent stable release from 2.0.60->2.0.66 my saves got corrupted or fail to load at all, even failing to load on few days old saves, even with just a base game & no mods, even space age. Reverting to 2.0.60 version did not change anything. I'm using a steam version and veryfying the files also provided no results.

Starting a new clean game works just fine. I would really apprecieate any kind of help with that matter, picture of an error (failing map generation/load?) below.

Cheers.

Please post the save file. Do you have any recent save that does work?

Thank you for reply.

None of the saves (like 30+ hard saves) of this base playthru made during 2.0.60 loads up, saves made back in from 2.0.28 (launched in 2.0.60 version of the game) loads fine.

here is the link to 2.0.60 save (was working 3 days ago) - https://limewire.com/d/BSwNz#Y1OMZ5zKGt
here is the link to 2.0.28 save (working from ~8 months ago)- https://limewire.com/d/tXGUm#HmNDv6dExf

The problem is that a mod added surface (surface_of_holding) had invalid map generation settings (frequency 0 instead of frequency 1, size 0) and the save file had those old invalid settings saved. I've fixed the save file for you.

thank you for fixing that my friend
