Loading compressed save file doesn't work

[Levgre]

Everything was working and loading fine, then I tried to switch to compress mode and now the saved content is null. Do I need to decompress the save file somehow (don't see a way to, I'm just using ES3.LoadInto), or change something else in settings (such as format, encryption, etc.)?

Thanks for any help

Hi there,

Please could you show me the code you're using so I can take a look?

Also be aware that if you've previously saved data without compression enabled, you will need to delete that save data as Easy Save will be expecting compressed data.

All the best,
Joel

I seem to have "fixed" it, by doing compression in the code rather than changing it in the ES3 settings window.


This was my old code (compression turned on in settings)

Code: Select all

public void SaveGame()
    {
    
        ES3.Save<PlayerSave>("PlayerSaveScript", PlayerSaveScript);
        NewGame = false;
    }

    public void LoadGame()
    {
        //PlayerSaveScript = ES3.Load("PlayerSaveScript", PlayerSaveScript);
        ES3.LoadInto("PlayerSaveScript", PlayerSaveScript);
     }

Here's my new code (compression not turned on in settings)

Code: Select all

public void SaveGame()
    {
        var settings = new ES3Settings(ES3.CompressionType.Gzip);
       
        ES3.Save<PlayerSave>("PlayerSaveScript", PlayerSaveScript, settings);
     
        NewGame = false;
    }
    public void LoadGame()
    {
        var settings = new ES3Settings(ES3.CompressionType.Gzip);
        ES3.LoadInto("PlayerSaveScript", PlayerSaveScript, settings);

Hi there,

I'm still not able to replicate this at my end. Would you be able to private message me a basic project which replicates your issue?

Also just to check, are you using the latest version of Easy Save?

All the best,
Joel
