Save cannot be loaded

[JuicyBox]

Hello,

 

I am hosting a server for just 1 friend and myself; the server runs perfectly fine for a couple of days, then it pops up the error message below. I have tried redownloading pz; still doesn't work.

I have uploaded the logs.zip file.

 

Is there a permanent fix for this issue?

Try deleting and / or moving the "map_t.bin" file as well

Try creating a new save file with the exact same mods in Singleplayer.
Then go to "C:\Users\YourUserName\Zomboid\Saves" and find the new save folder.
Copy the "map_ver.bin" file from that new save folder and paste it into this multiplayer save folder, it will be in the Multiplayer folder named after your settings name.

Ah, Got it. Thank you very much, Beard!

It worked, we got the server back, mostly. The server is missing a majority of the progress we made (Some of the tiles are the same before the corruption) , is there a way to recover that progress ( that got overwritten/reset to its base state)?

[JuicyBox]

Will this prevent the server from corrupting?
Does the method above just create a new server or does it allow us to keep the progress previously made?

[Beard]

It just fixes the version error, it does not prevent versions from corrupting due to errors.

I completed the process and the corruption is still there. Anything else we can try?

[Beard]

Not unless you backed up the save before the corruption happened, in which case you would simply move all the files from the backup to the folder back and it would roll back time before anything corrupted.

This has happened twice now for us on servers with only a mod adding cabin spawns, nothing else. Works great, then it does this. The game version was not changed at any point between when these servers were created and when this error happened.
