I've met Robo on Dungeon level 3. He was occupying stairway leading to a level below. After I've killed him the game crashed and I could not load any of my saves associated with this character, every time I was tying to the game was just returning to it's main menu. It have affected both auto and a manual save that was done about 15 minutes before I've killed him. I thought I was able to fix it by going to Dredmor save folder, opening 'loadsave.dat' and changing 0 in 'Izowiuz the Adventurer on Floor 0 of The Dungeon' to 3, after this my auto save disappeared and I could load the '15 mins earlier' save. But as it turned out, after saving it's always 'Floor 0 of The Dungeon'. I call black magicks. EDIT: To be perfectly clear, my saves are working properly now.
I'm sorry for double posting but I don't want to create another topic on a very similar problem. I've lost saves five times now on same floor [8th], and every time it occurs in a same way: I'm generally chilling out deep in the dungeon, mass impaling diggles and devouring their eggs. Then I hear this electrical 'zap' sound. Game locks up and crashes, the last frame I see is my character surrounded in sparks, like those emitted by , IIRC, Cloud Gremlins. After the CTD when I launch Dungeons of Dementia Dredmor I can't find my saves with the character I was playing. Now, when I go to my Dredmor saves I see folders of both auto and regular save. Inside my main save (i.e. izowiuz.dredmorsave) there are bmp's of my skills and data files with, I think, floors on which I already was, but missing are 'metadata.dat' and 'savedata.dat'. On the other hand, in the autosave folder there is only 'savedata.dat'. Every single time when I copied savedata from autosave to the regular save both saves reappeared in the load menu and I was able to load them just fine. I'm not running any mods. EDIT: It happened again after I killed some poor diggle, same sound effect and sparkles beneath the char. EDIT2: And again when I killed robo-samurai. For the sake of justice, I'm attaching my save. EDIT3: I've finally found out what was causing the CTD's. It happens only when I speed up animations and certain 'on hit' effect is applied to monster.
