Are you running Steam in a different language than English?

Can you see any errors for the game in the Event Viewer? You can open it up by bringing up the Windows start menu and typing eventvwr. Then go into Windows Logs->Application and look for errors related to Secrets of Grindea! The .NET Runtime errors are most useful.

If you switch to the old version (you can do so by going into the game's properties on Steam, selecting the beta tab and then selecting the 0.610 version), does the game work again?

the Windows log dont Show something , think because there give no error and make it to patch 0.610 ist working again so there is something with the patch but dont know what

Are you running the Steam Client in English or another language? Thinking it might be something with the auto-detection of translations.

Could you, for science, try switching to Steam Client in English and see if the game will run on the new patch? You can change it under Steam -> Settings -> Interface (or their German equivalents, rather)

Glad it started to work! And thanks for the info on the files, perhaps that will give me a hint of what's gone wrong... tens of thousand of error files sounds very weird, and not something that's supposed to happen :eek:

If you have some of them left, could you upload a character badload and a world badload in a zip file to this thread?

It Looks that iam the only one with this bug
I had the exact same issue a couple patches back. Seems to have fixed itself now. The way I got around it was to use the Secrets of Grindea.exe file found in the game directory, which always worked every time. You might want to try that in the mean time :p

i think i did try this too and no fix^^ maybe you should look in the save file and see if there are 1000 of badload files^^

last try it. It Looks that iam the only one with this bug hmm i look maybe i did something wrong^^

Haha, regardless of where I click on that site all I get are ads! Not even the "buy premium" buttons work. These file sharing sites doesn't like me, apparently :D

Do you use Dropbox? If so you could share the file in the public folder. Otherwise, I'll just have to get these files from the next person who run into the same problem!

Yeah, that works for me as well! And yes, that's a lot of badload files, damn o_O

What's kind of interesting is that they seem to all have been created at the same time... I'll have to check the backup recovery code to see if it's possible to enter an infinite loop of recoveries :bag:

This story got a happy ending at last! Thanks to @NeoSasuke's save files I found and fixed the bug. Someone else ran into the same issue and could confirm the fix was successful :D
