Description | This save file is seemingly corrupted - Legends mode works fine, but when I try to start adventure mode, the game crashes upon loading the save file, it seems (that is, selecting START PLAYING from the main menu, then selecting the save and then selecting ADVENTURER, I get some loading time, and then the game crashes without any further comment).
To make absolutely sure, I unpacked Dwarf Fortress at a new location and only copied the save into it, and again, LEGENDS mode works, but ADVENTURER crashes the game. And I originally had the impression that world gen and other features of the game also got corrupted by that crash.
I don't know whether it might be the 2GB limit, but I doubt it. The corruption occured after I retired a human adventurer because she suffered nervous injuries to a foot, I think, which made it impossible for her to stand/walk. I thought this was the third adventurer in that world (the other two dying very quickly), but legends mode only lists her, so I may be wrong on that count... She only killed two spouses of evil or something, so she has not had much impact on history, and there were definitely no more than two adventurers before her (if any!) with not more than 1 significant kill per adventurer (I am still not good at ADV mode).
No mods, no outside material except for setting the init and using a stretched version of the charset (so as to get the classic look). None of these changes apply to the virgin install I used to verify the corruption. |
