#(macOS via Crossover) Saves not working in the beta

This is not at all technically supported, but something changed between main and beta branches that causes saving to fail where it did not before when playing on macOS via Crossover.

Attempting to save begins the process, but then causes the following error:

System.IO.FileSystem.RemoveDirectoryRecursive (System.String fullPath, Interop+Kernel32+WIN32_FIND_DATA& findData, System.Boolean topLevel) (at <41d29b352f6a475ab1bf7c6628b82790>:0)
System.IO.FileSystem.RemoveDirectory (System.String fullPath, System.Boolean recursive) (at <41d29b352f6a475ab1bf7c6628b82790>:0)
System.IO.Directory.Delete (System.String path, System.Boolean recursive) (at <41d29b352f6a475ab1bf7c6628b82790>:0)
Ostranauts.Core.LoadManager.CompressSaveFolder (System.String folderPath, Ostranauts.Tools.ICompressionProvider compression```

I understand that support on this setup will be limited at best and will be happy to make myself as available as needed to assist in whatever troubleshooting capacity that is deemed appropriate.

Considering Crossover is the commercial arm of WINE, and Proton is largely WINE-based, I'm uncertain as to why it would have no problem on *nix but not macOS. I submitted a report to Codeweavers, although I am not entirely certain that this is a bug that's in their wheelhouse.

Might be a permissions issue, but I don't know much of anything about those two OS's. I'll ask

#

If the product forum is of any help, please post the response in here

I did just get a response from Codeweavers support as well, so I'll be happy to let you know if they come up with anything in particular!

been having the same problem. running crossover on mac os. macbook pro m3. I tried deleting my saves and changing the save file location and no dice. I really don't want to roll back to v0.14 if I can help it. i'll try to post my error log later

My own only semi-informed opinion on things is that the game update included some save management changes that exposed an issue with some internal component of WINE, which means that in this case it would be preferable for Codeweavers/WINE maintainers to resolve for macOS platforms.

Possibly a temporary platform check could be done which uses the old save logic if and only if it's being run on macOS, at least until the cause is found and fixed, but that's something for either the devs or a modder to look at. For now, it's seemingly unfortunately not playable on macOS.
