Bug: cant load saves

Post by Dominik2395 »

Hi I have the problem whenever I try to load a save with the mod "aeons of death" it says: this level was saved with a different set of acs modules. Please help I need to get it working because I'm streaming this mod live on Justin tv and now I cant load my save :cry:

This is user error.
You need to load the mod before you can load the save. Zdoom cannot reload wads while the engine has already launched.

Then your doing it wrong. This error only shows up when Zdoom cannot load the ACS from the save, because it doesn't match up with the ACS found in the mod/level.
Your clearly doing something different from when you saved the game to when you loaded it.

Wait, you mean to say that you are trying to load a save that was made without the mods, in attempt to load it with mods? That will never work. Its like trying to load a save from one mod with one set of maps, with another mod with a completely different set of maps.

[not ZDoom]

You can't load a save you've made without a mod loaded and then continue it with a mod loaded.

If you're a logical person, you would understand that if you can load a save without a mod, yet not be able load the save with a mod, then that save is clearly not for that mod.

Can you start a new game of AEoD, save in another slot, leave, restart (again with the mod) and then load that save?

If you have updated either ZDoom or the mod, or both, then it's logical an incompatibility cropped up.

I've had this problem before. Check in what order you load the AEoD files.

I'm having this same problem. I'm using cosmetic doom and a few files I have the game autoload, Hd textures, better sounds, etc. I load the mods the same way every time but now, it won't let me load my game
