Trying to load an old save game fails
After some absent time from Space Engineers I would like to transfer some of my old designs into a new game.
I have tried to load old save games to make some blue prints of these old designs.
But every old save game is refused to be loaded. I guess the save game format has changed. But even an ingame conversion fails, although the game informs about the conversion attempt.
The error message mentions a wrong XML format, especially it doesn't like unsigned long values in the old save game.
The same error occurres if I try to load an old blue print from the steam work shop.
Maybe you already know about this problem and can give me a hint how to recover my old designs.
If needed I can supply the error log tomorrow ( writing this report on my smart phone )
Here is the error log ...

I don't know, if there will be more errors in the case this specific one is handled.

I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble loading your old Space Engineers save games. I've done some research and found that this is a known issue, and the developers are working on a fix.
In the meantime, there are a few things you can try:
I hope this helps!
