Corrupted save file and zones not loaded in save

[rjl2299]

While playing, I got a crash due to low memory error. I opened up some storage space, but when I tried to continue from the latest autosave, the game freezes and I have to force close it in task manager. When I try going to the next latest autosave, it tells me that some zone files did not load in properly, and that I should upload my save.log files to support for help.

can you upload that file?

[rjl2299]

I can't, they are a .save file and are an invalid file extension

[Hatsune_Neko]

upload them to google drive
then post the link to it here. make sure it has proper permission's so those with the link can access it.
we recommend people to do cloud storage service due to how easy it is and allows any file type.

Hello,

Here are the most recent saves. Autosave0 freezes the game, autosave1 or 2 gives the zone warning

Note, what it wanted you to upload is your save.log file, not your saves. The saves don't do a lot here except show that yes, they are corrupted. The log would show more info about what it was doing and record any errors it was encountering. The log is located in your Kenshi folder.

Based on the amount of corruptions though, I would personally suggest running a chkdsk scan, as so many files corrupting so closely together may be pointing to an issue with your hard drive.

I have included the save.log file, and I have run a chkdsk /f scan but the problem still persists

Looks to me like the corruption probably happened due to multiple autosaves overlapping in the process. Do you maybe have the autosave timer really low?

At this point, what I would do is take the last manual save if you have one, or one of the autosaves that don't crash, and import the save from the main menu. And turn up the autosave timer, or disable them entirely and just rely on manual saves.
