How to save a co-op campaign game?

1

I've read about 6 topics on this question and this one https://forum.faforever.com/topic/4702/how-to-play-the-supreme-commander-campaign-offline-and-coop-maps

allowed me to launch the FAF client in offline mode and through Skirmish start a campaign game (odd, but the thread assures that's how its done). It for sure worked as I played for 20 minutes.

I then saved the game, went to make dinner. Came back and tried to load it (through the campaign menu, that's the only place where the game was listed, the thread assures that's normal too), the game crashed while in the loading screen.

Started a different campaign game. Same thing.

So, not that map or particular game.

What I am wondering is if the save file is going to the correct place? I cant seem to find where the games are saved in any of the FAF folders. Is it going somewhere it should not (such as the original Forged Alliance regular game folder)?

It could be that we broke it* with the previous developers iteration. I'll investigate and make sure it works, but I can't give an ETA on that for you.

Ok, appreciate the heads up!

I'm experiencing the exact same thing. Cant load any save, the game will crash to desktop with an error report form

@JoyDivision I've tried to reproduce the problem but it seems to be working at the moment. Could you or @pendex confirm this?

Hey, I can confirm the problem. The game Crashes to Desktop when loading a coop campaign savegame.

I followed the guide, created the shortcut with the /init init_coop.lua prefix, successfully started the coop campaign game as Skirmish, saved and tried to load via Campaign menu again (tried with Artifact mission).

So the problem still occurs unfortunately. Would be awesome if it could be fixed.

Btw.: has their ever been attempts or ideas to introduce saving/loading online matches? Normally I would think implementing something like that woul be impossible, but seeing what you managed to already do with the game makes me wonder.
