Save Game Corrupted

Users who are viewing this thread

I was afraid this would happen one of these days. It's the one risk of 'realistic' save games where not everyone has a backup save. Luckily, I have a copy of about 24 gameday difference which isnt so bad--I only made it to report a different bug x_x.

M&B Warband opens up fine, loading screen works up until 'Launching...' then the music starts stuttering and I get the black screen of death with the runtime error x_X Any other save game works.

Unfortunately the last_save didn't come through either so I'm guessing it just didn't autosave properly. I'm on Day 1724 in v1.113 if that has anything to do with it.

Save game can be downloaded here if anyone wants to confirm :sad:

ok this is not cool, my save just got corrupted again. always happens in saves after swadia declares peace with the sarranids :sad: uncool so uncool.
 
third time's a charm. just corrupted again. this time i made backups as i went along. this time swadia hasnt made peace yet, had a few more defections. i think the game is just capped at day 1700+ just too many events to handle or something. my save file is 7.3MB large and i guess there's just some limit

there's consequences to restoring all the claimants and just doing too many things haha

o well, guess it's time to start a new game x_x hope 1.114 comes out soon
 
I'm getting this exact same error, now.  Day 1854, 6974 KB save file. Stutters and then crashes when I try to load it.

It was playing fine, I saved & exited, now it's unplayable.

Other save games load fine, but none were nearly as far along as that one...
 
do you have a backup save before this bug happened to you?

bugtracker reports that this bug is fixed for the next patch.

dunno if playing the realistic save option is very viable when saves could get corrupted like this. i still play realistic, but i copypaste my last_save file as a backup--so tedious
