I have just tested my save / load bug with skirmish games involving no custom (create) a hero - SUCESS.
Tried 3 saves at start, mid and end game and all load fine with the ' allow custom hero ' option turned off.
Can't believe it was that simple - well - it still would be better if we could fix the CAH problem but at least we know where to look.
I should also mention that i have also removed the ' gamedata.ini ' file out of the object folder as suggested a while ago by Sul and also have installed the SEE mod to my 'C ' drive as per Naz's new improved install guide.
SO - it could just be the CAH problem or a combination of any of the 3 things i have just done.
Obviously - it is still early days yet and needs more testing and similar good reports from others with the bug - BUT - things are looking up.
I must do more testing soon since i have the PC game The Witcher coming tomorrow and that might engulf me for a few weeks - depends how good it is?
Games may come and go but BFME2 SEE is here to stay - LOL.

Did the AI also not make use of CaH? In other words, did you switch of the build ooption entirely?Sorry, just played a game with no CaH whatsover and the bug struck. I should note that I was playing on my own map though, not one that comes with S.E.E.

@LJ... I think it was your map. I've had 0% on the last 10-12 tries I made since I moved to ' -mod "E\SEE" ' and never use CaH =)

The save / load bug is caused by a conflict with the create a hero option and SEE.
If you un-tic or deselect the ' allow custom heroes ' option before your skirmish battle - everything runs fine.
I have been testing this all day and i used to get the load error virtually every time i tried to load a save but with ' allow custom heroes ' turned off everything works.
I love the CAH option but not as much as i love SEE and all the improvements it brings.
So - if you like to save your skirmish battle occasionally and want to ensure that this bug doesn't suddenly strike - don't use CAH for the moment.
I will do some digging around and see if i can narrow down the create a hero conflict but don't hold your breath.
This bug might take a while to cure - if at all.
SOB - I had really done some good work on the CAH files as well - all ready to send to Sul for inspection.
P.S. Would help us all if anyone else who constantly had load problems would just confirm that this works for them as well.

I know you probably can't spend ages on tracking down this bug as CAH is not a top priority but any help is appreciated.
I don't know anything about hardcoded upgrade limits etc and so i would be lost if this is the problem.
If you are not getting the save / load bug yourself then i would be happy to try out any changes you think might help and see if it cures the problem with CAH.
Just send me the changes as a PM attachment.
Anyway - good luck!

I'm interested; played allot of BFME2 games but never had any problems with CaH's of any sorthey amazing mod you guys have made. i just read this whole forum and i'm wondering if deleting all the CAHs and making new ones in SEE would help. because i know there was a conflict with saved games from bfme2 and maybe there is a conflicts with CAHs from bfme2. anyways thanks for the hard work
Do you recall where you saw something on a conflict? I hadn't seen anything on EA's forums on it but you might be onto something??
Thanks for any reference you can give!

I would get that too when I enabled CaH and built one. However when you disable that option (and youobvisouyl dont build one) they save just fine.i started an easy AI skirmish on helms deep. camped out and fended off attacks with archers and catapults. nothing big. i saved and exited game. later i resumed the game and built a CAH. leveled him up and saved and exited. got back on again and got the save error of doom
How are you liking the SEE mod? Pretty cool, eh?
Oh and welcome to the forum!

otherwise i am in love with the mod. im a camper and i attack only once and thats at the end and its a big battle so this mod is perfect. i love the new units and disabled faction colors. my favorite is Sams frying pan special attack. that made me laugh.
