Hello,

I bought the game a few days ago and I'm still in my first playtrough after a few hours. My saves used to load just fine, but today the loading screen is stuck on "Launching game" forever. Manual and autosaves don't work. Only some manual saves work, but they are a hundred turns behind the current save.

Here are my latest manual save, the diagnostic file, and the output file : https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BwqYGF6Y-uCtUjhMWEtUOWdCRVU

I tried everything suggested here but it still fails : https://www.games2gether.com/endless-space-2/forums/73-tech-support/threads/20661-read-first-common-issues-guides-and-solutions?page=1

I don't get much from the diagnostic file, but apparently there is a problem with some hero ship? I do have a hero on a ship orbiting in one of my systems, waiting for some action.

I tried playing with the latest beta build but loading still freezes on "lauching game."

So is it a problem with some hero ship that got fixed with the beta build but old saves are doomed? If that's the case, then I can start a new game without worrying it might happen again. But if it is a whole other problem that is currently unsolved even in beta, then I'd rather wait for it to be fixed.

Thanks in advance for the help!

P.S. : aside from that issue, the game rocks!
