Can't load my save

jeffrounet · 05-01-2025, 09:51 AM

Hey! I love the game but now I'm sad. I can't load my save since yesterday. The game crashed when I started the 2030 OHL draft and now, everytime I try to load the save, everything seems fine until the Finishing Loading step and the game shuts down.

I tried using the backup saves rs_one and rs_two and it still crashes at the same moment. I would be very grateful if you could take a look at the save I uploaded!

The name of the file is JEFF25-04-30.lg.zip

Thank you and great work on the game!

Mhhh, I can load (and continue) your save without problems.

Does it really crash for you or does it just takes longer to load?

I’ve been having the same problem here. The game crashes upon start every save after 07/01/30. Using the RS files is no help as it’ll just do the same when i go to load the game after I close the app.

Please upload your save and I can take a look:

The game is crashing when loading the save. I tried with another save and it's doing the same thing, even with the backups. I uploaded it as well (jeffrounet1.zip).

Like austinmd03, as soon as I reach july 2030, every save breaks and I can't load anything. I tried reinstalling the game and it's still not working.

Thanks for the help!

I downloaded your save and (again) I was able to load the save and also to continue it (simulated your Sweden U18 games).

What FHM11 version do you use?

11.4.51 on Steam

That's the last thing I see before the game crashes : https://postimg.cc/JHk42S1h

Can confirm I see the same thing here before it crashes. I can also confirm it’s not every file of mine as I have an NHL save in 2032 I can access so it seems to be a problem with the OHL. I have sent over my file as well in the PM.

Good news: I was able to track down the problem. We prepare a hotfix at the moment that should be out later today or early tomorrow. All save files will load again when updating after the update is released.

Thanks everyone for providing the infos and save files.

I just purchased the game and am on that version, but I still have the exact same issues as others in this thread. I uploaded my save file, but is there anything that I can try before the technical team gets to it? Thanks!

Sebastian Palkowski · 05-18-2025, 11:40 AM

I assume "wha.zip" is your save?

In case that is true a few things:

1. Your save is a historical game and the problem in this thread only effected modern (current QS) saves.

2. I´m able to load your save without any problems.

So what exactly is the problem? Does it really crash (close during loading) or just takes longer?

* Yes, that is my save.
* It gets to the Finished Loading "phase", stops at 64% for about 6-10 seconds, then shuts down totally.
