[Beta 9] Game hangs on loading Beta 8 game saves

#1 Post by Feanor.81 »

I don't know if backward compatibility is not guaranteed between betas, anyways when I try to load Beta 8 game saves the game hangs on the loading screen ("Please wait while loading the game" popup message).

The following error shows up in "stdout.txt":

Code: Select all

[MODULE LOADER] loading module	Tales of Middle Earth: The Fourth Age	[mod.load]	::	nil	nil
108 frames in 15.883 seconds = 6.79972 FPS

No backwards compatibility at this time. Darkgod has said once the game is out of beta he plans to keep things backwards compatible as much as he can but for now, expect each beta to break the save files.

Very well, as a software developer I really can't blame him :D

If any admin is reading this, please delete this thread!
