OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - HELP! Power Outage While Saving Game; Now File Corrupt!

Good evening all! Was in the midst of playing OOTP25 and saving my file when my power went out at my place four times in a row. Now when I attempt to open my save file, I'm getting an error message saying:

"The loading of the database failed. It is either corrupt or a save-game from an old version."

Unfortunately, I did not save a backup for the file. Is there any way I can recover the file or am I screwed and have to start an entire new save?
