i started with the 1901 season and was half way threw the season when while saving the game the it froze and would not save and i had to task master out, when i tried to load the game i recievd the following

Database::Load_Database - could not load the names file

my back up did not work saying there was no world data, so i started another league and the samething happen again the game froze while it was saving

i dont know if i should wait for another patch or not, it sucks playing all those games to lose them all and start over

did not have this problem before the latest patch

I had a similar problem after dowloading the patch - I couldn't start a new game because it couldn't access a world data file. It turns out I never downloaded the patch properly - I didn't close out the game before downloading it (doh!). Once I did it right everything was good.

all of a sudden, this happened in my NABA (Skydog's league) file today. I've had the new patch for a number of days.

Can I send the file somewhere? I'd really like to not lose this league. I've never backed it up.
