HeWhoWalks Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Bug Submission: Category: General Issue Title: Crash : Load failed for file [client/.../server_save] when documents folder is a UNC path Issue Description: As described here: http://forums.kleientertainment.com/topic/46439-general-crash-load-failed-for-file-clientserver-save/ I get the mentioned error (Load failed for file [client/.../server_save]) when attempting to join any multiplayer game. Through investigation, I've determined this is caused by my Documents folder being a UNC path (\\server\users\username). Workaround: * Create a symlink pointing from the local hard drive to the network folder: * mklink %userprofile%\Documents /d \\server\users\%username% * Set the following registry value: * Path: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders\Personal * Value: %userprofile%\Documents After doing this, I'm able to join normally. Steps to Reproduce: * Have a documents folder that is a unc path * Join any multiplayer game Note: Starting my own game seems to work fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Developer bizziboi Posted December 19, 2014 Developer Share Posted December 19, 2014 Hey @HeWhoWalks, You may just have solved a mystery.We have a local fix that tries to address this particular assert - but the UNC path may be another cause for this that may not be addressed by this patch (I'll have to try obviously, and possibly do more fixing on the issue) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
