(v0.704) Crashing save after changing difficulty level

[bluebird]

I figured I could up the difficulty level a bit after some tournament fights going better, so I pressed ESC, went into options, and set the damage to full and opponent AI to average. After that I did quit and save. When I now try to reload the save, I get every time:

---------------------------
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

Assertion failed!

Program: C:\Games\Mount&Blade\mount&blade.exe
File: \Armagan\Creatures\rgl\rglString.cpp
Line: 270

Expression: (cursor + len) <= str_length

Bye bye save game

I get the exact same error message, but I haven't changed difficulty in game. I first had some problems with merchants, who disappeared from some towns. And the next time I exited the game and tried to start it again and reloading my saved game... then I started getting this error message. So now I can't load my game and I had played quite many days allready

Welcome to the forums, Pande72.

I'm sorry to hear that you are getting the same error message that Bluebird is getting.

Until a fix is found, can I suggest starting a new character and maybe using the in-game cheats to get your new character back to the state your previous character was in?

The cheat thread can be found here.

Hope to see you around,
