CTD on game load

September 25, 2010 2:07:54 PM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums

I attempt to load a game, and it crashes before getting to the actual game interface. Looks like the Peacekeepers have an odd ship.

I have two saves: the current and 10-turns-ago autosave. Since I have the current one, I clearly played through the last 10 turns, but the 10 turns one dies in the same way. debug.err from attempting to load the current game is below, and debug.err from 10-turns-ago is available on request.

It'd certainly appear that something got corrupt in the save with the ships, but it's hard to say just how or why. Is it just the saves from that one game?

I only have saves from it to try, but the one sitting around from the first turn works.

Set your autosave to 3-4 turns. You have two copies that are recent to fall back on. (AutoSave and PreviousAutoSave)

By the way, you did not mention if you tried your PreviousAutoSave.sav game. It should be more recent than the the first turn save.

I have my AutoSave set to 4 turns and I save my game with a unique filename periodically, especially if I do a lot in any given turn (Game1 or Game2, like that).

Quoting Legerdemain,

I have two saves: the current and 10-turns-ago autosave. Since I have the current one, I clearly played through the last 10 turns, but the 10 turns one dies in the same way. debug.err from attempting to load the current game is below, and debug.err from 10-turns-ago is available on request.

I should have saved more often, yes.

Is there any way to recover the save, or am I starting a new game?
