Is your save from a previous Alpha or have you overwritten it in Alpha 16 latest version?
How big is your save-file?
Could you upload your stonehearth.log file after you have this issue? It should be located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stonehearth\stonehearth.log
@Relyss
I am playing 64 bit i think.
I made the save in alpha 16.
I cant upload Anything now because i am on my ipad right now i will do that tommorow.
simulation.core | Loading save
dm.store | took 1.261 seconds to load
simulation.core | Failed to load: could parse object 2697 of 335801 (size:12313).
client.core | server load save file failed. returning to stonehearth title screen.
Unfortunately, I don’t know if there’s a workaround about it.
Paging @Albert / @not_owen_wilson they might know where does this error come from or if it’s fixable.
(Should the message be “could not parse” instead of “could parse”?) I don’t get why it’s failing.
@Movecraft_Pirates, it shouldn’t do that with any of your saves. This might not do anything, but could you open Steam, right click on Stonehearth, select the local files tab, then click Verify Integrity of Game Cache? It should tell you if any of your game files has been corrupted (not your savefiles, though).
Did you have any mods installed? Sometimes if you add and remove mods and make saves in-between the files won’t load afterwards because they need the mods that were installed when the save was made.
Lastly, if you could zip one of your failing savefile folders and upload it here, it could be useful for the devs.
@Movecraft_Pirates - The save file should be at least 20 MB, so it looks like it’s not getting fully saved to disk which is causing the load to fail. Are you running on a user account with limited disk space privileges?
i am in alpha 16, 0.16.0 (release 559) x64 build. one of my saves seems corrupt, i try to load it and it gets about half way on the loading bar and it takes me back to the main menu, i dont want to lose it because of the amount of time i have put into it and how far i have gotten (for me). i would love any help i can get
I moved your post here because it was a similar issue and has more recent answers.
It looks like your save was not correctly saved. Are you using autosave, or did you manually save it?
Can you upload the savefile so that we can take a look? Just zip the folder corresponding to that save and upload it here. In this post there are some instructions on how to upload files if you need them.
Savefiles are usually located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stonehearth\saved_games
i think this is the one. this is also one where my workers were working on a building (and a second one later) it got paused on the first and the second they barely started, and they buildings wont be build even if i pause and resume.
