Saves are not registered
« on: June 04, 2014, 10:41:56 pm »
OS: Vista Business
Card: Radeon 2400 XT HD
Processor: AMD Dual core
RAM: 3Gig(6 gigs pagefile)
Filesystem: x86
Version of Game: 2.6Dev installer jun4 2013
Settings: Compat mode windows XP SP2
Run as Admin

Bug: Saves aren't Saved
How to Reproduce: Attempt to save, then load, you will then be shot back to the title screen
Cause: Not sure, however when I checked the roaming file for UFO2.6 there was nothing there, not even a save folder.
Fix: not sure seems to be a fundamental problem with coding, or incompatibility.

Do you have an ufoconsole.log there? Could you attach it? I expect some filesystem permission error.

I couldn't find the log sadly, so I manually writed down anything that was wrong.

My saves seem to do fine but above them was this:
Game_SetMode f: 'campaign_main' not found

Not sure if that is related to anything important. However when loading something more interesting seemed to happen:

UI_Delete Node: can't delete the static node 'geoscape.messages.dock.bottomMargin'

Running Subsystem 'interest'
Invalid interest category
subsystem 'interest' returned false-savegame could not be loaded

EDIT: Weird after going through the game a second time, the roaming folder decides to take the room service and plop some files down. The consolelog has been added to the first post. I looked at it a bit, seems that some of it pertains to the graphical glitches I am experiencing lol.

please open a bug ticket for that - aDuke is currently working on this - we will try to fix that asap to allow the loading of savegames again.

Could you upload the savegame that you loaded?

Update! The current version june 5 2014 has not resolved the problem.

All the console messages are the same, and when I try to load I am returned to Title screen.
Will update with a new consolelog and save file.

As I wrote, the savegame was corrupted you need to load an earlier one.

Well, patched the code again, so it can load the corrupted save. Let's hope it won't have any sideeffects.

Yea, that was clean install, I don't know why it was still being corrupted. I'll check later today and report back.
