I have a savegame that doesn’t load. I’ve done nothing special before I saved the game.

Every time I try to load the game, I get a assertion failure (“id”) and after that Visual C++ throws out a error.

Here is a zip-file with the folder of the savegame: [1409231004989.zip - Google Drive](https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwSBkxQ_qAmXbHlDX3l1cDROUE0/edit?usp=sharing)

It’s likely that the save file has corrupted. Unfortunately you have to delete your save files otherwise save/load will not function correctly. It’s a common issue right now I’m afraid, though I’ve never had a file corrupt myself …

See here

> This is a common problem that I have experienced myself. To fix it you must access Stonehearth’s local files. Then, you must locate the folder named “saved games”. You can find this exact file by searching for it in Microsoft Windows’s built in search function. After that, you have to delete every file in that folder. Each file in the folder is a savefile of your games. After that, Stonehearth should work properly.

Saved game, attempted to load again, and same error appears saying “id” Anyone else getting this recen…

for more information, if deleting your save resolves the issue I’ll merge you over.

Heyy there. 🙂 I’ve been backing Stonehearth since Alpha 1 and I’ve loved everything the Devs are doing.

However… I’m dealing with an issue. Ever since the release of Alpha 4 I’ve been unable to load any saved games. Even after I delete all the save files and save a new game I have been unable to load them. Every time I get 1/10th of the way through, I get an error pop up saying “id”.

Is there a way I can fix this issue? If not, could this please be resolved soon??

Just today I started getting the Stonehearth Assertion Failure id when attempting to load a saved game.
