Mark

Im afraid the server went down due to a hack attempt and also too much space used up so I had to wip out files. Your save was lost. Its 1.03gb in size which is incredibly high. Are you zipping up loads of save files in once? If so please just zip up that game folder to save space.

Can you send me your saved game for this please because I am not sure why its happening at the moment.

What database are you editing?

Depends how you created the database. Was it named the same as another or did you import data from another?

I will take a look and see whats up. Usually jumps are showing something like an award win or some promotion thats significant.

The game partly uses a database that hates those characters sometimes so makes it very unpredictable for me.

Can you make this happen again, if so i would like to see your save game

So existing band with members and you are changing the singer?

As said the name must be the same for this to work.

.Net is used.

Late reply. I am ok had some issues but coming back to life and havent given up on the game.

All passed clear so not too sure what is causing it but its a local machine issue. If you load the avg dashboard it should tell you what it thinks. They often let you send to them for inspection too as its a false positive.

This is every time? I would like to replicate and address

I dont have AVG installed I have a paid for anti virus. I'll try and scan it in a multi anti virus scanner as sometimes false positive can come up. Ive raised this once before and it was cleared by that provider.

In events like this I would send me your error log if you have one. Most common reason for this would be if the save is interupted.

You can only do this by filling the database. I can look in the future to stopping it happening.

Hi everyone. Ive not been very active of late due to a new job that is dominating my lifeand I have a pretty crap personal problem as well which is really affecting me so its a very tricky time. I therefore ask you to bear with me as its a really hard time and the game is just not my priority. Thanks Mark **** Update *** I am still super super busy at the moment and the time not spent on the game has been a real help but I plan to be back with some patches very soon.

Ive made some changes to says but more work ive not been very active due to my new job which is eating into my time atm.

It doesnt add to their schedule if they arent the ones writing. I have changed this in next patch.

Its likely the saving as its intensive. You can extend how long it takes to save.

What natioinalities were the scouted artists?

Also do you have an error log file i can see?

Corrupted save. Do you have a folder in the save called backup you can restore to?

This bug has been fixed in the next patch for future data. Its linked to how singles and albums linked.

Are you able to replicate it with a save? Did you use a custom database or make any changes to the database? Any particular date or just in general?
