[SOLVED!] Unable to load?

[sasquatchii]

Hi everyone,

I'm unable to get my game to properly load saved games.

Here's the error I get when I try to load any of my previously saved games:

Code: Select all

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
  File "renpy/common/00action_file.rpy", line 452, in __call__
    renpy.load(fn)
ImportError: No module named matrix

I'm really stumped on what's going on, any help or insight would be very much appreciated!

It must be a change you made to the game since those saves happened. Usually for me, it's simple things like I added a new variable to the code but the save is taken past the point that variable would be set, so it doesn't exist and errors. Yours looks a little more complicated than that, but to narrow it down, you'd have to think about all the things you changed since you made that save.

Broken saves are kind of a part of a game in development, though. As long as you can start a new game and play to the point of that save without triggering this, I wouldn't really worry about it. It's an issue of the save file lacking some necessary information that the newer version of the game is now asking for.

Oh and as long as you can start a new game, make a FRESH save and load that. That's not your issue, is it?

Crazy Li, you are exactly right! When I save now and try to load it I am able to do so no problem! How strange.

Thank you for your help
