My save !!!!

[poussin1er]

There was an (unannounced) update just before I played and my savegame won't start.
I've tried to load a previous savegame from this card and same thing, it stops and returns to the main menu after a corrupt savegame announcement.

I ran this map with the "video game studio" mod (just that one) and I haven't even built it in my city yet.

I try to run it with or without the mod, bug.
I go to Steam and check the game data, relaunch it and try loading my map again, bug.

After several unsuccessful attempts on this map, I finally had a city that ran really well and was soon going to move into the modern era.
Spending several hours on a map and not being able to go back to it is really frustrating.
Especially if the problem comes from the mod I'm not even using.

Your new system for creating mods is all well and good, but if it causes the game to bug, that's no good.

What do I do? Start all from the beginning? (that's boring) Wait for a solution from you? (when?)

In short... I think I'll take the first option, but please take my report into account. To fix this (or delete this mod), so that it doesn't happen to anyone else.

Same issue :/

[matheod]

The updated corrupted all save (or I hope, prevent loading save and a fix will allow us to play again)

[Coasterdeedee]

I have exactly the same problem. Very annoying! Hope there will be a fix soon

[Lopiel]

My saves corrupted too, never used a mod before for this game.

[TheDeadOne]

So besides corrupting saves, what else does the new update adds?

[meinereiner]

Since the saves have the correct date I don't think anything was corrupted.
But I wonder why nobody realized the issue before they rolled out the patch.
I'm quite optimistic there will be a new patch in the near future to adress this bug.

My saves corrupted too :( :( :(

I see devs are going the Microsoft way.. fix something and break three other things at the same time :)
But until they fix it theres a mod called "Force Load Savegames" at mod.io. Activate it, load your "broken" save, re-save and they'll work again.. even after the mod is deactivated.
(I just did a quick test if it would work, seemed all good to me but no warranties, liabilities, and all that :D)

[Sapphire Bullets]

Same. I was part way through a mission too. :/

[FrozenAngel]

Same issue and I don't use mods, just can't load any saved games :( Spent several hours on a mission, I really hope I can get back to it...

[5mileChase]

Same here. Had a great Sandbox game going, no mods enabled. Unable to load any saves since update today. Error loading savegame! Data is corrupt and cannot be loaded. Returning to main menu. Glad I am not the only one.
Edit: As a test I created a new Sandbox Game without mod, manually saved a few times, closed the game, reopened and loaded the newer saved games and they open fine. So at least a New saved game works. Still can't open games saved pre 10.05.23 update.

Sandbox map saves won't load. Scenario Map (Concrete Beach, eg) will load for me. But too bad the key thing is Sandbox map saves and they won't load. I'd really like updates to be opt-in for this reason. I give up on games when updates go really foul about twice. One strike here.

I manually installed that plug-in, enabled it in T6, when i loaded my savegame it warned me and asked me a question. First time instincely I said "yes" and nothing worked. Tried it again answering "no" and my "corrupt" savegame finally opened. Cheers. edit: but then my savegame crashed while playing anyway. boo!

Oh yes, should've mentioned that.
After installing the mod T6 warns you that your save was created w/o the mod and asks if you want do disable it (yes-option) or load it with it (no-option) ofc you need to load the save with the mod enabled

[DM Ragewaar]

Yup me too - save sandbox games will no longer load.
