Okay, so I have absolutely no idea why, but when trying to see what it said in the console, the file appeared to load perfectly fine this time. My exact sequence of steps was to load the console, attempt to load the file, the first time nothing happened, I loaded a different file without issue, I returned to the main menu, and this time the broken file loaded just fine. I’m even at the correct save point. Also, only on this test did I notice the life marker was at 1 while it wasn’t working, but now it’s at 3 while the file is working.
As a result, I don’t have any errors listed in the console, nothing from past sessions either from what I can see.
