Return to Castle Wolfenstein

ReadField error upon loading a saved game
After tinkering around with the game I finally got it working, but when I try to load up my save, the loading bar appears along with the mission briefing, but just as the game is about to load it gives me the following error and exits to main menu : ''ReadField: function name is greater than buffer (512 chars)''

Help would be appreciated.

You cant load saves from 64-bit with 32-bit client (or vice versa). In other words, if the saves were created while using the 32 bit version, they will only work with 32-bit, etc.

Thank you, I downloaded the correct patch, replaced the files in the installation folder and the issue has been fixed.

I have this same problem and my system is 64 bit, I don't really understand how to fix the problem. I got realrtcw via steam. I got the patch of rtcw for 64 bit. I tried changing it to the x86 one but that didn't work. I don't know how to get a 64 bit client or if my version is 64 bit

Vanilla game is only x86, ioRtCW provides both x86 and x86_64 binaries for instance

If you started playing in one of these, just stick to it
