Need More Info Still cant load saves

Users who are viewing this thread

Alright, ive played about 500 days, got a couple of towns, almost clan tier 4. And ive came across two type of crashes.

One is a very early, crash. This crash is avoidable, usually this happens early on in the game, if you go around a town and accept a mission, you can get a CTD which corrupts your game. The only way to avoid this, is to do a couple of "SAVE AS" instead of just "Save" Its avoidable. This only affects one save file. This is a type of crash, where you can load into the game, but as soon as you hit one specific date, you crash.

However, here comes the kicker.
Theres another crash, the one which OP is experieriencing, and which i just came across. So basically, when you save and then load, something happens to your save file, i dont know excatly, but it seems to grow in size, however if you save and load 45 or 55 times (varies between players), it basically corrupts your save. It doesnt matter if you remove it and take a way earlier save, if you load in to that and save again, and then load back. You crash. Which means its unavoidable. The patch, only fixed one load in, basically it uncorrupted your save, however if you did one more save and load, it corrupts it again. Keep in mind this is a ticking timebomb, as soon as you hit that threshold, it corrupts your save file.

So my guide, is if you have a lot of save and loads, and you are well into the campaign, stop now and wait. It doesnt matter if you save as, if you do a total of 45 or 55 save and loads, it corrupts your save. Even if it was completely clean. This ****ing atrocious by taleworlds, ever since Warband you have had problems with corrupted save files, and you still ****ing have it.

Did no one QA this? I mean this is a problem that practically breaks your game and campaign, that has reached a huge portion of your playerbase, and its genuinely kicking me down as a motivated player.

It is also funny that the update that comes after a problem that has not been solved for 2 days does not make any sense other than the chance of 1 entry. No sense.
 
Just to be 'that guy' that usualy the ones that the game is working for, are playing and not on the forums going ''hey guys! my games working through!'' Ngl, if mine worked I wouldn't be here either. I'd be playing. It worked to load the old saves, which is a sign that to me it is going in the right direction. I made a new 'Save as' and it CTD'd when I tried to load it. Hopefully they'll figure it out very, very soon and it'll be stable again. It could be worse, we could all have been told that we'll have to start from scratch again for it to work.

I'd like to reiterate something for those like King Harlaus the Fat: It's in EA; you signed up for this.Want a finished game? Don't play EA. Yes, this sucks, but don't call them lazy because buhu an EA game said to maybe have issues is having problems.

on steam discussion, there are a number of people who hasn't encountered this issue on their play through but they still tested it to confirm and guess what? they did get the bug. the only reason some people haven't encountered this bug is simply because they didn't save scum like us. eventually tho, one by one everybody will, unless it's resolved. so "i wouldn't be here unless..." theory doesn't work.

Yeah it really blows my mind that this somehow made it to the live (albeit, early access) version of the game.

I mean.. didn't they just have a few months of beta testing? This started happening to people almost immediately.

Beta testing was only multiplayer. I'm not sure if there was any SP beta testing
 
Yeah I was really happy when patch arrived yestearday that I could continue playing with 103, but I cant make a new save after it or it breaks up again. Great sadness :sad:
 
in the beta section on the propreties of BANNERLORD (steam) you can switch to patch 1.0.4...it seems it's working!
 
How to swich to patch 1.0.4? I can't find it
Go to your steam games list...right click on bannerlord, proprieties, go the BETA section and select 1.0.4....remember that then the game will not update automatically anymore unless you go back to default option.

That's right guys just right click on mount and blade bannerlords II over steam and click on properties. Then you need to come to the beta and click 1.0.4 and complete the update. That's all.
 
Official 1.0.4 released on steam and updated automatically.
Fixed the crash on load issue for me with no issues so far. Great turnaround on this Devs, keep it up!
