Hello Ayron!


It looks like closing and relaunching may fix the issue, but if for some reason it continues to get stuck, I think I have a workaround for you!

First: Go to C:\Users\[user]\Documents\Humankind\Save Files and delete the save (or put it in another folder) just so you don't accidentally load it up again.

Second: Go to back a folder to C:\Users\user]\Documents\Humankind and delete that whole Users folder. When you launch the game again it's going to have reset any settings you may have changed, and you'll have to watch the opening video again...but after that you should be able to start new games again.


Hopefully that helps!

Hi Saikana, thanks for the quick reply. I got the game up and running again, simply restarting it and then nót selecting that broken save game got it working (after some tries).

I do think it good to know for your guys that a. save games can be broken like that (no idea what can cause that though) and b. it will prevent the start of any games after trying to load it.

Hope you can find something about the attached save game and can prevent this from happening and keep up the good work on this beautiful game!


PS The opening video starts everytime I start the OpenDev eitherway ;)
