Previous pilots will not load #383

Open ira210 opened 3 years ago

ira210 commented 3 years ago

Windows 10 64 bit using 1.9.0 realease binary from oolite website. Pilots save into oolite/oolite.app/oolite-saves (apparently correctly) however when I try to load them I am treated to a mostly blank screen and no obvious way to load, although pressing the arrow keys awards me with aural feedback. This is a persistent issuse from an earlier release (I don't remember the specific version) I can attach screenshots later if needed but don't have any currently.

Do you get the same result if no OXPs are installed? Also, can you share your latest.log file so we can analyse what might be happening?

ira210 commented 3 years ago

I have had the same result with no OXPs although I realise now you mention it that most of my old saves have probbably been invalidated by adding OXPs. Here is my log and a screenshot, hopefully they will be helpful.

Latest.log

Can you please post a Latest.log with all OXPs removed and after starting the game with Shift held down? You can also try completely uninstalling the game (backup any saves you wish to keep) and re-install it, preferrably in a different folder, then launch it without OXPs to see if this fixes the problem.

I will attempt this when I have access to my pc agin but I don’t currently

ira210 commented 3 years ago

it works with the clean install

ira210 commented 3 years ago

should i close this since it isn't reproducable?

It would be useful if you could try to pinpoint the OXP that causes the issue. You can try putting half of the ones you had in and see if you get the error. If no error there, swap with the other half and try to find this way if there is a particular one that is misbehaving. It is a strange bug but at least we can conclude it is an extremely rare one.

It could also be that this issue is the result of a specific combination of OXPs. That would probably be quite a bit harder to pinpoint.
