Hi everyone!

As you might now, I'm one of the people that sofar has been totally unable to sucessfully reload large MP games, crashes, hardlocking computers & dropping players all the time.

Well, the last 3 days I've been testing a thing some people stumbled across that has fixed these problems for me and everyone else that has tried.

The solution ?

Delete the hosts savegame.cfg file !!!

That's right, just erase it and everything will work. It's as simple as that...
Obviously, noone else should have it either, so don't include it if you send each other .zip of the savegame.


Though the old bug of having to reststart EU from scratch before starting a new game still applies in some systems.
You can test it on your system by starting a SP game ending it and then start a new game SP game. If it crashes in SP it will also crash in MP.
As I said, the solution to this is, quit the game before reloading the save =)

If this works for you OR even more important, if it doesn't, please reply to this thread =)

Great work Stefan!

Hope it works for those who insist on using 1.09, but for myself and a number of those we play with, 1.09's instability has little to do with the savegame. It simply doesn't hang together in MP long enough for us to even GET to a voluntary savegame. I'll not DL that thing onto my machine again.

We'll be starting another start-to-finish, multiple-session game for Saturday nights using 1.08/IGC2.1 this weekend (June 16). This is a Western US/Mexico/Canada game, widebands and "Faruk" only. ;)

PLAY ON!

See, there ya go given Faruk too much notariety... and you wonder why he's the way he is?:p

anyway, I agree w/Rio. Not gonna install the 1.09 till Paradox comes out w/a new fix (then I'll obviously still not install the 1.09, it'll be the new patch;)) too many problems from my experience and from what I have read/talked to others.

Anyway, I am, however, curious to see if your little knife job will help the 1.09 or not.

Good Luck
 
Fresh information to add to the Huszics 1st post...

...and also change your name every time you join a saved game where you have been playing.

(This is only for players that have the same problems has Huszics when joining to save games)
 
It seems that our little game is contributing something...
not very surprising, given all that crashes we're experiencing :(
