9.1.2 problem with loading faces

markprior22 · 07-14-2008, 10:48 PM

Trying to open a fictional league started with 9.1.0. Giving "DATABASE::load _database-could not load faces file". Any idea why this would happen.

Dola...this league did have a CTD due to the pinch runner bug before new 9.1.2 was released. Could this have corrupted the database? Any way to fix it?

Possible, but unlikely. The game won't save while you are in-game, and crashes not during saving shouldn't hurt your files.

Could you please try uninstalling and reinstalling 9.1.2? There was a bad set of files released temporarily.

If that doesn't work, please try disabling FaceGen and then opening the game. If that doesn't work, make a copy of all of the .dat files except the faces.dat one in a .lg folder and try to open it up.

Did this work OK, or are you still experiencing problems?

Sorry I didn't follow up on this...I copied the faces.dat file from the original league backup folder and pasted it into the problem league. Everything worked fine after that. The pictures even remained the same but had to be redrawn after pasting
