Saves on 2602 and higher doesn't work #598

Closed RaHimsky closed 1 month ago

RaHimsky commented 1 month ago

Hi,

some time ago I started playing in Gothic II NOTR on OpenGothic 2207. Everything is good to 2601 version. When I'm trying 2602 or higher version I have problem with some my saves. They just don't want loading. I play on clear version of G2NOTR only with Panker Mod Mix but I tried loading my saves without this texture pack and they don't work too.

Here's my saves https://mega.nz/file/d1pCASaB#JMDB23FVH6fUd3dbYqESTlJ1OghaBH9NEMzirP9JDn8

The saves number 8 and 14 working correct problem is with saves number 15-18.

HI, @RaHimsky !

I've tested save 8 and 15. 15 has invalid version tag, possible there was series of commits around build 2602, with this bug. Root cause of the issue is fixed in latest build: loading 8 and saving it again produces a valid save-game file

Thanks for reply, so I need to start my game from save 8/14 or my later saves will be working on next build? Sorry, but I don't fully understand. Is there any way to change the version tag manually to make the saves 15-18 working on 2602+ builds?

on *current build, yes

No easy/reliable one. If you really keen on this - you can open save-game as .zip archive with 7zip or winrar. There you will find save_slot_18.sav/worlds/newworld.zen/version file. This is a 2 byte binary file with a version number, you need a hex-editor to edit such, or transfer it from other save (with v46). Save for every game world.

Ok, I fixed my save number 18 but it's work only for newworld.zen and I tested it on 2628 build. When I do the same for oldworld.zen version file or addonworld.zen the game still don't want load save even if my character is in newworld.zen. And what I noticed, when I saved the game after editing version file for newworld.zen the values changed from 46 to 48.

EDIT: OK, I fixed my problem by using 2207 build, making saves for each world and after this my save start working on build 2628. Thanks for help, U can close this issue ;-)
