Saves corrupt after 1.1.1

[LimpBussy]

I had no issues prior to 1.1.1 following Mar 21st patch with save files not loading. After 1.1.1 immediate issues with all saves. I sent off my family file to Triskell on Monday, hoping for a response soon. Maybe until then someone has come up with a solution?

Restart, delete the User folder in the Pharoah save folder (C:\Users\<user>\AppData\LocalLow\Triskell Interactive\Pharaoh\76561197986906316\Family\Djedi\Saves) and it takes care of the crashes most of the time. There's something causing some sort of leak, I've had 2 gb save files.

I have the same problem(s)

[Claeriel]

Same here.... I can't load my save ! I have 31 hours of game. I am disapointed.

Only if you lost your money sometime afaik.

The personal savings are not saved in the normal savefile but in your dynasty save.

Yeah, I am stuck at Rostja and the game just pause and unpause every second

I read that this is caused by placing a building over a spot of animal respawn. Try deleting buildings in the area where animals are spawning.

Same happened to me after 17 hours of game play, can't load autosaves, my own saves or even the campaign. Unplayable at this point :(
Also I experienced the same issue where saving and loading took waaay too long throughout the game the further I went.
Additionally I had to save and load every time the message appeared, that the npc decided not to attack my city, since I couldn't click anything after that message box.

Same here....Game unplayable. I´ve played 35 hours. No save game can be loaded.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ i just lost like 5h of play due to corrupted saves. This is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. It happened 2 days in a row.

Happened same to me.
Before autosaving game just freezed for couple of second.
Those freezes appierd on the campain mission Rostja.
I got error message - Fatal error in GC -> VirtuallAlloc remmaping failed.

[Claeriel]

I tried again.. I can't play anymore. I have deleted all my save files, uninstalled the game... nothing works ! The game freezes every save or automatic save, and ( of course) I can't load a save file....

The game is UNPLAYABLE

Huge saves and extreme RAM usage

Dear developers,

Today I started the "North Dahshur" campaign mission and was able to play it up to a random point without any problems.
Suddenly I noticed that the game freezes on every autosave. If I save independently or go to my saved games, it also freezes for a moment.
After starting the game, PHARAO takes up about 6GB of RAM. As soon as I open the saved games list, the RAM claimed increases to 16GB.
If I now load my saved game, the required RAM increases to 23GB.
As soon as I delete saves, the RAM used by PHARAO decreases accordingly. Presumably, for whatever reason, the game loads all saves into RAM, which has a negative effect on the gaming experience.
If you now open the game and simply save a game for fun, the RAM increases by at least the size of the newly created saved games (1.7GB per saved game).

What's crazy about it is that saved games were e.g. 15MB in size before, but are immediately 1.7GB in size after loading and saving again.

Unfortunately the game is no longer playable for me.
Do you have a solution for this?

Memory Leak Turns into Save File Corruption [Bug]

Every Year my friends game would hang for about 20-25 seconds. Had him open his Task Manager and it was using almost 18 Gigs! He saved his game. Tried to close the game and it would not close on its own. Killed the process. Rebooted his PC. Saves no longer work, all corrupt. Campaign progress was fine. None of the possibly known save file corruption reasons fall under these set of circumstances.
It is not known how we could reproduce this issue so I will just post this here if the devs can glean anything from this.

[Lady Zaz]

I have played this for a total of 86.6 hours.
This in itself should tell that I have REALLY tried to be understanding and patient.
But now I give up.
I have to constantly move and delete my save games because they won't load.
Of all the bugs in the game, this is the most ANNOYING.
PLEASE FIX THIS DEV'S... NOW.!

This problem should not exist at all.!!!

[Tangra]

Yup, the game is completely unplayable at this stage. Played for about 20h and now it no longer matters if I delete the saves or not.
The game also hangs every time it does an auto save and this takes longer and longer. At this point only thing it can be done is to wait for a patch.

[allie_619]

Same here! Played something over 15 hours and now no save can be loaded. Pretty annoying and a pretty lame bug too!
Also before this happened guilds stopped working on the monuments for some reason.
