Morning! I was playing about 30 mins ago, and was on level 3 with my character. I spam-killed a named mob for a quest with Fire Mines (or whatever its called) from the Promethian Magic tree, and the game did a faceplant and crashed out on me. I loaded up the game again, got the "Steam cloud cant function for some reason" message, and went to re-load where I last saved and ALL my save files were gone! Like, poof. Does that happen when it gets corrupted? I never had it happen before. The save files are still in the game folder, and a test character I made was able to be save'd and load'd up properly. If the save file got corrupted for some reason, fine, that's okay. But why did ALL of them get corrupted? That must have been a hell of a glitch! I'm not sure where to find the crash dumps for this game. If you need to see one, lemme know where to get it! Note: Perma-death was turned off.
I have no idea what happened, but what I would do to try and load your saves is to close Steam, then go to your save folder, open loadsave.dat, verify if it points to your saves correctly. If it doesn't, edit it so the file looks like Code: 1 filename.sav I have no idea how to properly load multiple saves at once by editing the file, but that should let you play each save at least.
yeah, none of my files are in that .dat There a way to turn of Cloud sync for this game? I cant find the option under Steam's Preferences, so I'm assuming I'll need some sort of "Set Launch Options..." wizardry. Its not terrible disheartening, after all you're supposed to die and start over anyway so its no big deal. Just a really weird glitch lol
I believe there's an option if you right click the game in libraries and go into properties, but I've heard it didn't actually prevent it... Go figure. Worth a try though. Otherwise just run the game from the .exe instead of Steam.
