CrazyIvanMN Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 I was mining all night on earth (deployed four shuttles/and their mining drones). Left the game running when I went to sleep. Woke up today, unloaded the drones in to one shuttle, and set that shuttle to RTB, while I stayed on the planet. Anyway.. I figured I didn't want to lose a night's work, so I saved my game using alt-g. Now, when I clicked resume last, it starts to load, when it gets to loading earth, it hangs there for a bit, then gives the "FATAL ERROR" message box "Save file Currupt, missing object marker". I tried then to load from the Restore game screen, and I get the same error. I'm running version 2.00.20, properly patched (copied exe updates to the universal combat directory, and extracted one at a time, 1st with 2.00.00 then with 2.00.20).. actually been playing it for a couple days now, since I got my issues with drivers resolved, and never had a problem loading a saved game before. I did see the reply to someone else's similar problem (quoted below), and I know this is not the case. As I've only played this game with version 2.00.20.

Supreme Cmdr Posted January 23, 2005 Report Share Posted January 23, 2005 The only way you'd get a corrupt saved game is if you were previously running a game that was not created from the same patch level. e.g. running 2.00.20 patch level with a game from 2.00.08 (or whatever the last compatible version was). It can also happen if your HDD has bad sectors and part of the saved game got written to such a sector. Nothing I can do about it. In the future, please search the forum before starting a thread about a discussed topic. This thread will be deleted later today. Send the saved game (there is a topic here about which files to send and how) to [email protected] and I'll take a look when I find time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
