Default Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion

When i install the 1.2.8 patch i cannot use my old 1.2.7 savegames. I get this error then:
"The data files currently being used do not match the data files that where used when this game was started. Please check with your host to get the correct data files."
Sounds pretty reasonable.

Is there a way to solve this so i can keep my save game? I already restarted since i had the same problem going from Version 1.2.6 to 1.2.7.

I tried moving the current mod to another dir and installing the full 1.2.6 Version and then the 2 patches 1.2.7 and 1.2.8 but that doesn't work.
( i couldn't download patch 1.27a, dead link )

I didn't really understand the message from Atrocities regarding this problem:

KEEP IN MIND:

That this patch WILL modify your save games as the vehicle size and cost have changed.

I recommend that you make a copy of your current Star Trek Mod folder, then rename the old one Star Trek Mod 127 and then the new copy Star Trek Mod, before updating.
