and "missing word definition" when I try to load my save.

even tried copying over a fresh init.txt from the pack without running the updater. still "missing word definition"

[2nd edit]

I unpacked the game, copied my save loaded it, it works fine
I ran the init updater
it still loads fine.
ran the save game updater
"missing word definition"

any ideas?

Warning, my 0.40.05 release is damaged, you need to run the savegame updater to not generate corrupted worlds.
There's plenty of .bak files all over the place.
Will be releasing 0.40.05v01 soon.

The problem is that 40.05 updated the language files. And changed 'YOR' into 'YORE', so you can't run the savegame updater from 40.04 to 40.05 without restoring the language_DWARF.txt, and co. to your original savegame files.

My problem is it works until I run the savegame updater. If i don't run it, it will load fine. I'll wait for your fix though.

I uploaded a linux version Here, since wurli isn't updating.
Hope that's cool.

I'm not uploading a fix for the updater problem. Generally, the savegame updater should NOT be used between major DF versions. Only between minor DF versions. Because Toady can add/remove things to the raws that break raw compatibility. Most of the time it works ok, but in 0.40.05 a word has been replaced.
If you want to update your raws, you'll need to preserve and restrore your savegame's language raws after you update, so the old vocabulary is no longer missing after updating.

How does one do that? Is there a guide for updating saves manually?

*Updated* 0.40.05v01
Removed file doubles in the raw folder.

How do you update a savegame? I moved over the region1 folder and ran both update .BATs but the game give me a "FATAL ERROR: Missing world definition" error.

edit all the language_*.txt files and change YORE to YOR

[Dutchling]

Thanks, that worked!

Thanks for the quick update. Only issue I'm having is the unsmoothed Obsidian tile is wrong. Like, tile 177 is linked to the wrong place or something.

[Phoebus]

I've created a special updater to make 0.40.04 (or previous) worlds work with 0.40.05 raws.
Unpack this in your 0.40.05 install, and run "df_savegame_compatibility_updater_Phoebus_40_04.bat" to fix all your savegames raws to be compatible with 0.40.04.
Warning, it will break savegames that have been generated with 0.40.05. So generate your 0.40.05 worlds only AFTER running the compatibility updater.
Compatibility Updater for Phoebus_40_04 worlds (115KB)

I hope this will help.
