Will not let me access previously saved games.
« on: May 28, 2011, 02:07:41 pm »
Today's update build 1306568813.  After applying the new update, I tried to reload my previous saved games.  After selecting the saved file, the game reverts to the opening menu.  I then started a new campaign game, saved and left the game.  Restarted, and the new saved game worked, but not the previous versions' save game.

Did you use Muton's SDL fix or some other significant change? Such things can cause a savegame break.

Could also have been a corrupted savegame. I don't know what all breaks savegames and what doesn't, that was just a wild guess. Should have said that to begin with. sorry about the lapse.

I have this some problem - but it's interesting, because I can new game created in 1306568813  read in 1301086950, but I can't read games from 1301086950 in 1306568813!!
This some problem was in previous version - 1304573780

Unforntunately, I started over after realizing that the other bug (after killing the last alein in the battlescape) was fixed.  These files were overwritten.  After playing some yesterday and this morning, this version, other than some in game music issues seems very steady.  [Lindy tips flightcap for developer's hard work.]
