Bugs in older version (2.4) / Re: Can't load my previous saved games after updating to 2.4

Nevertheless, does anyone thought about creating a tool to migrate the 2.3 saved games to 2.4?
There should be a way...

I can try to make such tool, all I need is a description of the saved games files.

With whom should I speak to?

Regards,
Carlos

Hi

Thanks a lot for the information.
It's petty I'm going to loose so many hours of game, but with the new graphics and new items... who cares? I'm starting all over again!

Oh, did you go from 2.3 to 2.4 via an update (apt-get, ubuntu update manager or the like)?

Dude, I wrote my Linux distro... is Arch Linux... 
I don't like Ubuntu anyway...

Thanks again and for the team: Congratulation on 2.4!! Excelent work here! Nice graphics, great animations!
I don't play World of Warcraft for more than a week because of UFO:AI... LOL!!

Kind regards,
Carlos

Bugs in older version (2.4) / Can't load my previous saved games after updating to 2.4

Hi there!

I was an addict of the old X-Com game... I found this UFO:AI on Arch Linux repos and got addict again!

Well, I was running UFO:AI version 2.3.1 and after a full system update I got the new version 2.4.

I started to see my saved games slots empty. I browsed the ".ufoai" folder and found the folders for versions 2.3.1 and 2.4.
I copied the "save" folder from 2.3.1 to 2.4 and now I see my saved games but I can't load them! Any attempt will bring me back to the start screen.

I took a look on the log file and found an error:
2012/05/10 21:08:11 Invalid base index -1
2012/05/10 21:08:11 ...subsystem 'base' returned false - savegame could not be loaded

I spent a lot of hours on the campaign I was playing... I really hope it is possible to fix this error.

System information:
Processor AMD FX6100 (64bits)
4Gb RAM
Display adapter: NVidia 560GTX with 1Gb
OS: Linux
Distro: Arch Linux
Kernel Version: 3.3.5

Log file and saved games attached...


Kind regards,
Carlos Santos
A new UFO:AI addict!
