ikeee Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 While my game was saving, my laptop got frozen, next time I tried to load my game it showed me this message: "The save game could not be loaded". Now, is there any way to fix that? :/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piethief100 Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 No, I'm afraid not. I met the same situation around FM 09, and since that time I've always done a manual rolling save, saving alternatively to four files after every completed match. It's the only way to save yourself from the corruption pain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Padders Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Do you have rolling saves turned on in your preferences? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kilik Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 yes go to the game folder in the sports interactive folder and go on to the properties of the game file and click previous versions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikeee Posted January 7, 2013 Author Share Posted January 7, 2013 No, if I had, there could be a backup? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kilik Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 No, if I had, there could be a backup? yep it has previous versions of the save from a day ago or two. did you already delete it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikeee Posted January 7, 2013 Author Share Posted January 7, 2013 I don't have any previous versions of the save, there is nothing listed on that tab, it is just empty. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrazT Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Any power interruption during the saving process will corrupt that version of the save and it will be unrecoverable. Akways use one of the automatic saving options to ensure that you have at least one backup all the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranfile Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 i dont care if someone accused me to load games everytime i lost. but i always turn on the automatic save on DAILY BASIS. you cant never tell which day you have an important day. Like Balotelli become vegetarian to reduce his craziness maybe... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the only way to save yourself from the corruption pain. I think this has just happened to me. While I was saving the game, FM crashed. Now it says I can't load the saved game. Can someone explain what a rolling save is, and what is meant by a 'manual' save? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can someone explain what a rolling save is, and what is meant by a 'manual' save? Say that you set the save option to the rolling 3 game autosave, set weekly The game will create 3 backups in the first 3 weeks then on the 4th week the oldest save will drop off, so you always have 3 saves. Manual save is when you save the game from the FM drop down menu, rather than let the game do it automatically for youbut isnt to be recommended as it is easy to forget.

zz963852741 Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 I save to another copy 3 times a month. Now have hundreds copies of my games. Of course provided your HDD has enough space. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
forameuss Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 I run a ten file rolling autosave that serves me pretty well. I think it's set to monthly at the moment, or possibly fortnightly. Saving does take quite a while on my now 100 season long save, so daily would be massive overkill. I occasionally get crashes, and the autosave feature has been a godsend - there's never been a time where I've lost too much. It's a far cry from the old days when CM would wait until the worst possible moment to destroy your save. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the auto save at every day, 10 files. Can't load any of them. It's a pity because I had my best save in years with Celtic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OxfordUnitedFC Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 I'm sure like many others i learned that the rolling auto-save is a must the hard way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
marceloOrigoni Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Are you sure you don't have a Savegame(Backup).fm file in your games folder? afaik, whenever you save your game (manual or autosave) FM creates a temporal copy of the last save, then it proceeds to create the new file, and finally, after the new file is completed, it deletes the backup Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
