Corrupted Save (Filename $RJRVBY5.lg)

Hello OOTP Dev Team!

Following the 6.8.80 hotfix update, I experienced a lost and/or corrupted save for the file I have uploaded to your FTP server (Filename $RJRVBY5.lg).

Prior to the update, the season was saved at Game 1 of a Western Conference Final - Seattle vs. Chicago - but after the update was applied the save reverted back to Game 1 of the Quarterfinals - Seattle vs. Vancouver.

Troubleshooting steps taken:

Uninstalled-Reinstalled game
Verified integrity of Game Files
Copied contents from rs_one and rs_two directories into parent save folder
Restored any deleted files that may have contained older save data and pasted .dat files into save folder

Please let me know if anything can be done to restore the save state as a handful of buddies have labored over this season during quarantine and would really hate to lose our magical WCF run with the Kraken.

Strange, the load seems to be freezing in one place in the main save, and a different one in the rolling save, and replacing the files it's stalling on gives me a runtime error. We'll have to take a closer look at this one, I'm thinking something may have gone wrong in your last save prior to updating (which would explain the apparent date reversion), but I'm not sure where.

Bad news, unfortunately. The corruption has damaged most of the files (essentially, the entire save is broken), so this one is beyond our ability to fix. Sorry about that.
