unable to load any saves.
hoping an error log will help diagnose the problems i and others are having with this release:

[code]

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:

  File "renpy/common/00action_file.rpy", line 452, in __call__

    renpy.load(fn)

Exception: Couldn't find a place to stop rolling back. Perhaps the script changed in an incompatible way?

Almost Dead 0.6

Tue Jul  6 14:08:03 2021

[/code]

Are these save games from this version 0.6 if they are from older versions that could be the reason

(1 edit)

in my case, the save games are from 0.5 i actually had the same 'fix' as the last dude - re-unzipping the files, and saving it over the first lot of unzipped files.. then i was able to open the save games...
the save files are still from 0.5 (of course renpy saves are in the separate windows appdata folder, so they werent modified by this process) but are now working for me.
i just figured you'd like to know more about the issue, so i posted the log for your benefit.

There was a change from .5 to .6 on where the save games were stored. The directory name changed because I had it configured incorrectly.

I get the same error when I copy the save folder from .7 to .8. Since there are 2 locations with the saves (appdata and game folder) I am not sure what the proper way would be to transfer the saves. Any help would be appreciated.
