Cannot resume a saved game.
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

I know there are some post already regarding saved problems but none fit the exact problem we are having. I marked this priority high because it was very discouraging for us to not be able to continue with the "Escape from Stratus" mission we had already put so much time into. After saving halfway thru the mission, the following night we wen in to finish the mission. When setting up as the host, I selected the mission and "Resume." The game loaded to the point where we could visually see where we were standing when saving the night before but the game never let is in. There was a briefing dialog box there but if I selected "Continue" instead of taking us into the game it would take us back to the dialog box to select our characters again after already having done so and you were stuck in this loop until just finally backing out and giving up.

this was fixed with the latest patch .52

Oh. Sorry to report then. In the dark about the patches. Do we have to manually download and install the patch or is steam taking care of that?

depends on your settings. rightclick on the alpha launch on steam and select properties. go to updates and see if you have the tab keep this game up to date, if so, then it will auto update.

Thank you for you help. Some info you may or may not find helpful. I went to Steam and my settings were set to auto update however the patch only just began to download. This is because there is an Arma 3 launcher on my desktop that I use to launch the game therefore never launching Steam to play the game. It was only after following your directions above that I launched Steam and the patch began to auto download.

Please let us know in note section if you are still able to reproduce this issue in latest Developement build.
