Error resuming from Autosave

Post by HWolfe1963 »

I am playing Showcase Queen Elizabeth. This is my first resume in this scenario. When I tried to resume from autosave, it froze up in the loading phase, with no progress on the loading bar. When I exited everything I had the message below on my screen. I tried rebooting, same result. I am able to get to the load saved game menu but I don't want to try that unless I have to because I'll lose my autosave. I saved once a couple hours before I quit last session. I also attached the zipped autosave and last saved game.
Thanks.

I did try loading the last save and it also gave the same error. When I started the scenario and configured all my units I did a baseline save before I started the clock, and that does load. But I don't want to play for hours, only to find out I can't pick up where I left off. So for now I am moving on to a different scenario.

Loading the autosave will cause several xml exceptions, including this one that reports where the error is.

Ok, that's all semi-Greek to me. Will I have this problem again if I either restart the scenario from the baseline save or from scratch? Or was this a one time glitch?

Thanks.
