thx for help

Is this single player, coop, or on a server?
Anything weird happen with the save game such as trying to take a single player or coop game to a server?

I had the same on single player offline. Why do you not inform that EDEN is only playable when steam is online?

All scenarios for Empyrion that are not bundled with the game require you be connected to steam so the client can verify the integrity of the files on the workshop and check for updates.
This is not optional. It is part of the game and nothing we do can change it.

You can make it playable offline by taking the scenario files from the workshop folder on your PC and putting them in the Scenarios folder in your empyrion folder, which will allow you to run the scenario without connecting to the workshop. However, it will never be automatically updated.

Ok. That is new for me. Good to know. I played more than 6 hours yesterday and it was fun. Congrats. But i dont like to play all time online if it isnt an online game. It burns money in my case.
Thank you for the answer

And it work well. You are the best! Updates will not be a problem. I can catch the new files like the others. Thanks a lot.

@ Ravien_ff:
To Answer: It is singleplayer, no co-op, no online multiplayer. I tried 4 times to begin a new RE game and everytime the same log entry and failure to load this playfield and stop the game with error message mail buttons, Vanilla works fine so far.

Try unsubscribing to the scenario then resubscribing and then starting a new save game with a new save game name you haven't used before.
And verify files in Steam after resubscribing.

Did this already {re-subscribing, everytime new name - by the way: the game created the saves (found them all), but didn't find/show them at game start}, but will do again. Unsubscribed yesterday before quitting Steam. Hope this helps

Double check you're playing Reforged Eden and not some other scenario too.

I have no idea I am so sorry.
This is not an issue with the scenario, because if it was then everyone would be having the same problem.
There is nothing special about the playfield listed, it's not even the first one of its kind that is loaded by the game.
If you leave it on the loading screen for a few minutes will it eventually load or does it truly stop working?


Try making a local copy of the scenario by copying the workshop folder.

Copy the entire F:\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\383120\2550354956 folder to F:\Steam\steamapps\common\Empyrion - Galactic Survival\Content\Scenarios and change the folder name from 2550354956 to something else like Reforged Eden Local.

Then start the game and try starting a new save game using that local copy of the scenario instead.
If this works then you'll just need to remember to keep that scenario updated by copying the files from the workshop over after each scenario update (using the same folder you made).

If this doesn't work then you might try reporting it on the game forums as a game bug, but because it's a custom scenario there may not be anything they can do to assist.

It really stops working, waited several minutes, and no HD activity.
I'll try your advice and will experiment a little bit further. I have played RE last at version 1.7, but there ar no left save games, I even deleted the created RE save from last try.

I'm no programmer so far, but the log shows two obviosly problems:
- the system IO exception can be connected to C# (so far as I know you need for read and write separated streams

-ERR- Could not load F:\Steam\steamapps\common\Empyrion - Galactic Survival\Client/../Saves/Games/RE_110_1/Templates/Rogue System [Sun Right]/playfield.yaml: the game will not start correctly.

but thx anyway, I hope I find a solution. Really like to play RE.

Did you also delete the cache under saves/cache?

yes, I did, but there were no cache files/folders of the newly RE saves, what means they were not created. What I found is a 'global.db' file in the save folder, possibly created by the game at start of the scenario. Maybe thats the database, where the connection fails. Who knows *smile*

at least: the local copied scenario works so far with the error message but continues after some secs. thx for all your help *thumbs up*
