Save Erase Bug

I cannot speculate about it much as I don't know what triggers it.The addons didn't fixed it as I just runned into it.I always though it was because of the spider nest,because in my last playthrough,I fought 100 spiders and tried saving it...it bugged 3 times in a ROW,killing 3 saves,making me lose 300 battles...I'll only do a report about what happened,so if it happen with you,the facts may differ.I actually have 7100~battles ,didn't touched the nests yet,already got everything in game aside the Sword of Scrolls(and Goldeen,that doesn't exist) and runned into it for the first time in this save.I was in Rillia Mountains,grinding for CockatriX Feathers when suddenly all music/sounds of the game dissappeared for no reason.Checked mute/volume,all ok.Went back to Secret Cave and the "Secret Cave" tag that always appeared didn't appeared this time.Saved and there goes:Error:insufficient memory while trying to free memory or something like that.Dunno what causes it,but I'll leave this post as a warning to the players.It seems to be random,it kills your save i.e delete and also your progress with it.Be careful.Save often.In different slots.No more 1 hour grind to me.Wouldn't want to lose 1~2 Lycose Pearls to a bug.

Strange. All my time playing RPG Maker 2000 games (at least 10 years if not more), this has never happened to me. I believe Moxy warned about this as well in his walkthrough.

Not an expert with fixing computers, but have you checked if your RAM is good? Hard drive issue? Graphics card issue maybe?

No this is a bug that I've only found in LP1.I already played a LOT of rm2k games and this is the only one that haves such a bug.I already saw it 5 times,and the first 3 happened in Windows XP,plus 2 times in 7 Starter.I believe that it is a consequence of making such an amount of difficult variables/switches.The contribution counter,the 1/4 exp,etc. are tough to make.Also after Random gets to Lv50,did you perceived that the 1/4 exp bonus simply DISSAPPEARS?There is a grave bug among the data of LP1,sadly...

Yes, it seems that once Random stops gaining new EXP by reaching Max Level, the non-party members stop benefiting from the automatic XP raise.

I wonder what triggers this bug.It never happened with exploration-like demeanor,only with "remains in the same place,and grind with foes there a little" demeanor...Savage Cockatrices,Trick Pots.both nests,luckily didn't happened with Queen Lycoses yet(I always get a maximum of 2 Pearls before Egressing,though) could it be that the mess that the 10000 Quest is somehow CREATED this bug?It's battle-related,no two ways about it as far I could see.There is any switch/variable conflict about the 10000 Quest worth noting,Geazar?Thanks in advance.

No idea at the moment. It's not something I can pinpoint by just looking at the event codes. I just don't see how any conflict in the codes could lead to a save being erased. :s

My current intuition keeps bringing me back to the possibility of limited hard drive space being the problem, and if so, then this would make some sense. But from what you've said, it seems like this isn't the issue.

up?
