I can start new games. I can save new games and load the saves. I can't load some of my old saved games, then the game crasches.
It could be som variant of a corrupted savefile. But me and friends have been playing by multi player axis(one Army group each) and sending
the saved games between us and the saves works for them. What can I do?
Hi,
First try the obvious. Try to patch the game up to the latest version 1.03r.
If that doesnt help. continue reading:
So if I understand correctly the only save files that cause crashes are the ones you received over email?
YES) If this is the case it is highly likely it is your email provider who is corrupting the file.
I will not go into technical details but the .dc3 file is actually a zipped file to save bandwidth and disk space. I have seen it happen before that some methods of downloading these files (especially by webmail) cause them to get corrupted.
I recommend you try a different mode of sending-receiving the file. Maybe try dropbox? or use a different email account from a different provider?
NO) However... if old save files of yourself that never arrived by email are not openable something else is going on. If you are sure this is the case test if you can repeat. If you cant repeat it must have been some fluke thats fixed by now.
Best wishes,
Vic
