In-game crash

Vezna31 · 09-17-2006, 03:43 AM

Top of the 8th, tied at 4, bases loaded, 1 out, playing the infield in and holding runners. My pitcher receives an injury and the game crashes. The only thing I am not sure of is that if the batter hit an RBI single or made an out. Re-starting the game, I lost about 10 days or so of games played and transactions. I was around May 22 and the game reverted back to May 11.

And I just started playing it again after staying with 6.51 until the patches were done and it was more stable

Can't address the reasons for the crash, but at least the game reverted back to a former date. Could have corrupted and been left starting with whatever backup you'd put in place. I'm glad, at least, to know the game is capable of finding a prior date. Did you notice any stats affected?

The game saves all of the .dat files every time you end it (or select save game from the menu). So, when the game crashes and you restart it, you revert back to whatever was saved last time in total and in coordination because all .dat files that are called up were saved at the same time. Not much of a consolation to Vezna31, but at least this avoids the game corruption that you mention.

It looks like everything is fine with the exception that I have to do my trades all over again and lose my games all over again because my team is horrible.

The grand exception being times when the game freezes or locks up forcing you to end the game via a force close ala Task Manager, etc.. The majority of the time this occurs you're faced with a corrupted league that will not load (on the good side this has not happened to many or often) and you will have to rely on the infamous backup you've thought to have readied.
