Saved game will not load properly now -- cannot play the game anymore

[Frankie321]

My Steam Jagged Alliance started with this problem in early October after a patch. Before that patch I was playing using the Show Chance to Hit and Evermine mods and the game worked fine.

When I tried to load on October 10 after a patch, there was an error message that said those mods were outdated. I unsubscribed from both those mods in the Steam Workshop. But when I tried to load a game it still said “Warning. Cannot load the game. The following mods are missing or outdated: Show Chance to Hit”. The options for me then are “Load anyway” or “Cancel”. If I choose Cancel the load attempt, it then said “LOAD FAILED. Could not load “H3_Underground_ExitGame”.”  Note that the game itself under Mod Manager now says 0 mods and 0 mods enabled (now that I have unsubscribed from them).

I was referred to this Steam support page:
https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=2274-IFLV-5334
However, I have tried as that help page suggests to restart, clear, move, repair, verify and even uninstalled and re-installed the game, but the problem continues.

Unfortunately, patches 1.2, 1.21 and 1.3 haven’t solved this problem.

Just now I tried again to load a saved game but got the error message “This savegame was loaded in the past with ignored errors. It may not function properly”.  I click Cancel the load.  Then message is “Could not load “6”.” where 6 was savegame name. If I click to Continue anyway instead of Cancel, there is the error message "Cannot load the game.  The following mods are missing or outdated: ShowChanceToHit".  If I click on load anyway, it does proceed into the game, but I fear to continue the game with this problem unresolved.  See attached screenshots for error messages.

 

What can I do?

Show Change to Hit is a cosmetic mod and does not change any critical game systems or data. You can safely continue without it, what you are seeing is the default warning message to make you aware that a mod that was added to this game is no longer active.

You should be able to reinstall that mod and keep playing with it.

Your issue is with the save file itself, not the game files. From what I gather you should be safe to continue onwards.
