[Purple Haze]

I'm having this same issue. Was playing fine yesterday, then crashed, and I could not open the game again without it crashing within the first minute.

I can play on a different vault just not the one that has all my purchases. No refund because i opened them. Never mind that i can't use them now all it dose is crash. I wont be buying anything for any other vault if this what happens.

You all need to disable that 'Cloud Sync' in the game properties. That's what is causing your save corruption. We've been saying this thousands of times in this forum. Maybe they should have a sticky post just for this so people are better informed.

This happened to me years ago... I had spent real money and could not reload. Literally am checking forums to see if this is persisting and looks like it is. Bethesda don't care

Use this instead. Upload your vaults .sav file and you can give yourself as many nukaquantums and lunchboxes as you want. Along with dweller specific tweaks, pet carriers, Mr. handys, and still get achievements.

Find your .sav here

>Local disk (c:)
>users
>(whatever your user profile is)
>appdata
>Local
>FalloutShelter
> .Sav files.

Dont use the .bkp files. If you have multiple vaults, you'll have multiple .sav files, numbered chronologically based off the order you started them. (IE the first vault you started on that account will be "Vault1", then "Vault2" etc.)

I hate timegated aspects in video games. I get its f2p, but id rather pay 5-10$ for a game instead of having to wait hours for questing, with the option of paying to make it faster.
I started my vault and gave myself a respectable amount of nuka and p2w crates, just to make the game enjoyable. Dont over-do it and just give yourself 999999 of everything, at that point it just takes more away from the game than it gives.

Plus its bethesda, ♥♥♥♥ them. They've taken enough of my money via fo76 and eso.

Yes, unfortunately... the damage is done. Disabling it won't fix your current vault cuz it's corrupted. But, turning it off will keep this from happening again. Next, you maybe able to fix the vault.save file using one of them save editors--tools--fix options... then saving the file. But, no guarantees. You might end up having to go into your users folder... \fallout shelter\ and delete those vault.sav files. Then start over. Or else those corrupted files will keep causing problems with launching game and starting a new vault. If the game does get you to main menu though, you can delete the vaults in the list from there. Then start a new vault.

Wow thank you. I wont over do it is no fun that way but at least i wont waste anymore money.

if you don't have any other choice, just use this save editor: https://rakion99.github.io/shelter-editor/

You just need to upload your save from C:\Users\youruser\AppData\Local\FalloutShelter, it's called Vault1.sav

You'll be able to get everything back

Thank you for all the help.

отключаем синхронизацию с облаком, удаляем сохранения на компьютере C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\FalloutShelter, запуска игру, создаем новое убежище, закрываем игру, включаем облачную синхронизацию, запускаем игру

всё равно облачное сохранение пропадает, у меня всегда игра зависает на второй или третий день
