Hello!

Recently my desktop died an ignoble death. I was a few dozen hours into EP and was very happy I turned on cloud sync a few weeks ago.

Got my new laptop, installed DROD, and every time I try to import the cloud data DROD just crashes. Not sure what else to say really.

I also am experiencing this issue.

drod.err says just this:

*** FIRST LOG IN SESSION 12/2/24 8:28PM ***
Import Parse Error: junk after document element at line 5:0

I don't appear to have a drod.err file otherwise I'd have shared mine. It'd be where the game was installed yeah?

drod.err should be in your user folder.

On the Mac the file is located in /Users/yourname/Library/Application Support/Caravel/drod-5_0/

It's probably similar on Windows, somewhere under C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Caravel or something like that.

Tested this in the latest Mac build and I can confirm this happens there as well.
