The Reason why is saved games incomatibile
« on: March 15, 2013, 03:42:58 pm »
Is there any reason why is saved games uncompatible in different versions?
And is there simple way to migrate it? Actualy i need to migrate from 2.4 to 2.5.

Usually it involves changes to the way that data is stored and retrieved, so that one version can not properly interpret or restore a save from another version.

Technically there is no savegame break in 2.5-dev. You should at least be able to load the saves from 2.4 there. Playing them is a different story.

This is a bug, not an incompatible savegame. You turned the XVI-map on and saved the game. After reloading it, the button disappears and you are not able to turn the overlay off again.

Maybe H-Hour remembers how to solve that.

It just disappeared eventually. The XVI map is generally not working for me though...
