Buglist Windows

Edit : " Most of the Buglist is long ago patched, i stopped playing so i stopped working on this list"

Originally posted by NoVa:

Yes, this is one of the most frequent bugs, the "victim's music" keeps playing after closing the food store window. At this point the game understands that the game is playing "victim's music" but there is no victims on the map, so it creates a new one in the bottom left corner who is dying from starvation (i manage to see the full body one of this many times) so when that victim dies the music will go back to normal (1 day more or less) but be careful because if this victim dies when other victims are in the road everyone would see it.

First off, I recommend waiting for the patch... but if you're loving this game and can't wait, like me, then I've got a little tool to help you MachiaVillain Save File Editor[ctarun55081.ipage.com]. Open the folder with your saves, and drag a broken save file into the blue box on this site. It will generate a new save file that you can save into the saves folder and run. Do not replace your original save, keep backups!

Remove all victims currently on the map
Remove all hunters currently on the map
Remove all ForestCreature (rats, spiders, tree monsters) currently on the map
Remove all blood currently on the map
Remove all spider webs currently on the map

How does this work? It's a HTML5/Javascript app that runs in your browser! That code is hosted on my website, but your save files are never uploaded, all this work is done locally.

Did this not fix your save? Post a comment with details and a dropbox/pastebin link to the broken save. No promises but if there's easy things to add to help people I will.

Enjoy :)

Immortal enemys

Originally posted by cet:

If you find yourself with an unkillable enemy with 0hp, like I did, you don't have have to fall back to an autosave hours before.

1) Open the save file with a text editor (SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\MachiaVillain\MachiaVillain_Data\Saves)
2) Find the string below and change it to 1.0.
"m_fInternalCurrentLife": 0.0,
3) Keep repeating #2 until you can't find it anymore (search up and down!)
4) Save the file
5) Load your fixed save and enjoy!

c

Attention ! this is not removing 0hp Enemys, it just changed the hp to 1. everytime you reload you have to kill them agian.




No save issue

Originally posted by ArkemFlame:

Ladies and gents, I found out what causes the 'No Save' Issue, and how to fix it. Well I don't know how it happens, but I do know what it is connected with. I deleated the old saves that I had and the game starts to save again, including quick save. I deleated the saves via the 'Saves' file in: <program files (x86)/Steam/Steamapps/common/MachiaVillain_Data>
Now I can save a new session and quick saves work again.
Hopefully this helps the developers.

(just copy your latest savefile delete all savefiles and insert the newest again)

Missing walls

Originally posted by Ghost:

This fix may not work for everybody, but it's worth a shot. I fixed my savegame this way.

Open your savegame in a decent editor such as Notepad++ (it's a very long file so regular notepad might not work)

Savegames are located in SteamApps\Common\Machiavillain\Machiavillain_Data\Saves

Scroll all the way down to the bottom, and then scroll up until you find a section called "CharacterGroupList" (or just Ctrl+F for it)

IF there is any code between the square brackets [ ], look for a line that says "m_fDelay". Does it have a negative value? If so, try changing it to 1, e.g.

This:

"m_fDelay": -0.00418615434,

becomes this:

"m_fDelay": 1,

(^ This fix comes courtesy of firesidechat in the comments below, thanks dude!)

Save the file and load your game. Either your walls will be back, or they won't. If that doesn't work, delete everything between the square brackets and leave the section looking like this:

"CharacterGroupList": [],

Here's a screenshot[i.imgur.com] of what this section looked like in my broken save,
and here's the edited version[i.imgur.com] so you can see exactly what to delete.

Works for some, but your mileage may vary!

Missing walls 2

Originally posted by BS Fridge Lord:

I finally got the no walls bug after 31 hours. One curious thing was I had spider webs shot by spiders in my base that have been there for weeks and would not go away.

I built a room near one of the webs, and also deleted the floor tile under the web in hopes it would go away. When I rebuilt the stone floor under the web, it put my builders in an infinite build loop on the tile even after the floor was built. The door close to the web also caused an infinite build loop.

I saved shortly after this. My save was corrupted and would produce the no walls bug. The fix involving the "CharacterGroup" line in the save would not work, as there was no data in the brackets there.

I rolled back to an older save. I edited the save and found that the webs were called "WebOnGround" (searchable) in the save file. I reduced their time variable to 0.01 in hopes they would go away. I accelerated time. The webs did not go away. I re-opened the save for editing and found the timers all still at 0.01.

I simply deleted each instance of the WebOnGround object by removing all of its data within the curly braces { }. EDIT: Example shown later in thread. You should delete the whole object (item/thing) by deleting everything from its first curly brace { to its final curly brace } and the comma , after the final curly brace. Use a code editor like Notepad++ so you can see which curly brace actually begins and ends the object.

I can now build on all the tiles and my save is not corrupted (yet).

BACKUP YOUR SAVE BEFORE YOU DO THIS SO YOU DON'T BREAK SOMETHING

Great idea! You can add victims using hidden doors.

Thank you for the initiative, it's very helpful!

Hello Developers, i think you can add categories to forum to... so its more efficient... waiting to fix first of all the bug with saves.

[Fridge Lord]

Please add "Letters cannot be placed in storage." I have a thread about this, I can assure you it's a legitimate issue.

[Eriko Aurelion]

It seems that you can make "infinite gold" with a zombies special skill and selling the mino zombie to the minion merchant

[Gorilla]

minions randomly lose health when they eat. killing the virgin last doesnt give you 300 evillium points. victims can see through walls for some reason. graphic issue when reloading a game ( some resource icons disappear)

are this all minions ? what do they eat ? do you eat mushrooms ?

this bug with the virgins is added

in which cases do they see through the walls ? do you have a floor under the door ?

Even deleting the old saves, I am unable to save, my game stopped saving on the 72nd.
It seems to me that the game simply stops saving (manual and automatic) after a while.

thats sad to hear when i had this bug i had to reload a 1 hour old savefile. and could save again.

when you encounter this bug mostly you have to close your game and restart it

[Gorilla]

i'm actually not sure between them eating food or sleeping at the tomb bed that increases the max hp. because whenever i saw them sleeping at the bed the health decrease but the max hp increase by 1. My minions was standing by next door and i have a hidden door that was closed but they saw my minions. no walls or floors are missing. @minamoto

Its hard to add this bug to the list if its not clear if they just lose 1hp because of the tomb bed

did you had a 1x1 floor where your minnions stand on ? like you pulled more then 4 together on this 1x1 floor they bug thru the wall for a secound
