[SAVEGAME BUG] Loading a strafe savegame

[nwbeeman]

I finished the powerplant, and attempted to load the file. The engine crashed with a READ INPUT PAST END OF FILE error. Just how many more times do i have to play through to the powerplant? (Not that i'm complaining. The file is attached.)

Also, if you type LOAD at the console, it reads from the program directory, not the save directory in the INI file.

Shouldn't it say diffrent version if it cant load it

Bet it is because of the code upgrade

You might want to make sure that the file is actually attached first.

Yea, i tried attaching the ZDS file, but the fourm dosn't accept it, didn't catch the error.

The savegame loads fine with 0.9.13 but not with 0.9.16. Apparently some change in between broke compatibility so I have to flag the minimum savegame version to reflect that change.

thats what i thought, how many damn times am i going to have to play that game? Hopefully, lots (due to a crapload of new features and fixes).

If you start I recommend to finish with the same version. Never upgrade in the middle of a game you are playing!

yea, and just something else, i loaded doom 2 and loaded a savegame, so the doom2 save games work, it must be due to the fact Randy was updating the strafe portion to fix bugs.
