Bounty:Metzla breaking my saves

[Zutiala]

Whenever I turn in her bounty, saves made in Stalwart village after the turn-in automatically revert to the most recent Stalwart save made from before I turn in the bounty. That's the recoverable break.
Saves made after I turn in the bounty and on another MAP (such as Russetwood, Caed Nua, or even The Gref's Rest) break completely and cannot be recovered.

For now I need to not turn in the bounty, but does anyone have any experience with this bug? I'd really like to get onto the next bounties in White March.
I don't even know what to call this bug for the purposes of googling fixes, and the old corrupted save fixes aren't working either.

Most likely it is new breakage introduced with those upgrades in June/July 2024.

Originally, the game development was finished in Dec 2017. But all of a sudden, the devs released a Unity engine upgrade plus more changes in 2024, and those patches have broken more than one thing.

Also, the official tech support forum is run by Obsidian in their own forum:

I believe they did do a bunch of fixes that update broke (not sure about this one), but the fixes have been in a beta branch update for months now. So you gotta go select beta update.

Well, I've crossposted this to the Obsidian forums, and am trying out the patch beta to see if that resolves the Metzla bug. Thanks for letting me the sort of fixes in the beta, I tend to wait for the full/stable releases so didn't think to check there.
I suppose I'll update this thread with the results.

As much as I appreciate Obsidians recent support for the game, the update from the 2017 version broke a LOT of mods

Edit: Yeah no the beta does NOT fix the Metzla Bounty bug.
