Can't Start a New Campaign

[Skolia]

I just finished my second playthrough of Saints Row IV and when I try to start a new campaign in Gat Out of Hell I get this strange message:

"This save file could not be loaded because the file has been corrupted or is an invalid save file."

If it's grabbing my Saints Row IV saves, I can load it in Saints Row IV just fine.

It's likely because the save file format changed in Saints Row IV and is no-longer compatible with Gat Out of Hell.
See this post for details about save file formats.

If that's the case, they should update GOOH shouldn't they?

 

[Quantum]

Ideally, yes, but I think they're all busy with Agents of Mayhem right now.

Does your campaign not even start?

 

[Skolia]

Correct, I had to nuke all my SR4 saves (after backing them up), play Steam "offline" to successfully start a new GOOH campaign (with generic "Boss").

As a FYI for this - the RadioEnabler.dll from https://www.saintsrowmods.com/forum/threads/on-foot-radio.8992/ has an option to disable loading the SRIV boss.
