can't load saved game

[RyanW]

Updated to version 31244 on 8/4.  Could not load a saved campaign with new version.  I had a previous version from 8/3 or 8/2, can't remember exactly which one, but that worked fine.
below is a portion of the output

It might be because the code for the savegame system is being worked on, here's just one of a number of commits that might potentially be part of the issue:

http://ufoai.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/ufoai?view=revision&revision=31219

Edit:  Of course, geever would have a better idea than I would as to exactly which commit did this.

Also, you're not trying to load a saved game from an older revision into a game compiled with more up-to-date source code, are you?  That almost always leads to problems, depending on how old the saved game is compared to the version you are playing.  If you update from SVN, you should always start a new game to avoid issues.  If you don't want to start a new game, you can either play a stable release or pick one SVN version and stick with it.

nope just the version a day or two old.

Can load the saved game now, but it crashes immediately after starting it.

I seem to have a problem like this too... r31272.  I can load a savegame ok, but as soon as time starts, I get assertion errors..
