[1.4] Strange problem with save games

[jimhsu77479]

After coming back to X3TC for the first time in a month, I upgraded my steam installation from 1.3 to 1.4. After the upgrade, all save games from 1.3 are broken. But if I move the 06.cat and 06.dat patch file from 1.4 out of the directory, all the saves load fine. I am using fake patches, but they come after 06. Does anyone know what changes are in that patch file that can cause a crash upon loading? Or what changes in the fake patch that possibly conflict with the dat file?

Edit My patches do make changes to the T files (e.g. TShips, TComponents, etc), but I don't see any changes in the patch there.

If you've modified your game then I'm afraid you are on your own. Changes to files are quite likely to cause savegame incompatibilities, regardless of whether those files happen to have changed in a patch.
