Hey Guys, first of all: thanks for all the work you put into this mod. You are doing a great work!
but sadly the game crashes when I want to load a save game from v0.44
What have I done so far?
-I downloaded the full modded version with bugfixes (v0.46.1.2)
-I deleted the corresponding roaming folder in Windows
-I copied the save game (only 1 file) from the old version to the new version
-I try to load the save game and crash
Can anybody help?
thanks in advance!
A small excerpt from developers note on page 1 should answer your question, it states:
"Since the base game changes a lot every release, save games are not compatible between releases (even between downloads of the beta, compatibility might break), this might change in the future, but for now you must start a new game if you change your game to a new release."
Whenever you play a game with a different version number you will have to start from the beginning, old saves are not compatible.
They are only compatible if the last version number changes. For example 0.46.1.1 => 0.46.1.2 saves should work. But if numbers before the last dot change you need to start a new game, every time on version change.
Edit: this is also explained in detail in version info on page 1:
v0.x.0 - Main Game Beta released by Author -> x increases once a month
v0.x.1 - Main Game Public release by Author -> x increases once a month
v0.x.y.z - Mod version, x must match main game -> y increased when save games are not compatible -> z increased when save games are compatible
