Hi vasiliy,
I attached the corrupted and working save files as requested and I verified that the UT1 save can be loaded successfully.
Thanks for taking a look, I hope it's helpful!
Hi red_kangaroo, thanks a lot for the suggestions. I tried them out but no luck. It's all good though. I've come to expect that IVAN's unforgiving nature will send me back to the banana village one way or another.
1) There's only 1 save file shown in the "Continue game" screen. I don't see any autosaves. The Save folder has a .wm, a .sav, and a bunch of numbered files (.10-.17, .20, .30, .40-.42, .70-.71). Not sure if any of these files are autosave files.
2) I reinstalled IVAN and restored the Save folder but this did not fix the issue. I guess the save file is corrupted.
3) I enabled the experimental feature for old save files but this did not fix the issue.
Hi,
I use v0.59 (on Windows 10 Pro) and I saved my game in GC8 without any issues, that is, I used S to save and then I quit the game at the menu by pressing 5. When I relaunch the game and go to the 'Continue game' screen, I can see my save file there. If I select the save file to load it, nothing happens for about 2 seconds and then the application exits.
Is there any chance I can salvage this save file or should I just move on?
It's strange because I had saved and reloaded that character about a dozen times without issues before reaching GC8. The only notable thing that happened on my final playthrough was stepping on a big mine in GC8 which triggered a ton of events that I managed to survive, then I explored the rest of the level and saved. Maybe something happened during the big mine explosion that could not be properly saved.
