This game has been working just fine since I got it, up until now. I have no idea what happened.

When I try to open it, it says I'm missing "zlib.dll" and to reinstall to fix - but I'm afraid that will erase all the hours I put into this unlocking stuff. I have all except 2 ships unlocked, almost all the challenges for those, and almost all the A and B type ship wins with them. I haven't even enabled the new content yet (though I did unlock a ship in there via a quest).

Has this happened to anyone else? If I KNOW for certain reinstalling wouldn't erase all my unlocks and achievements I would just do that - but I have a strong feeling it would start me from scratch.


Can someone upload "zlib.dll" from their game so I can try fixing it that way?

Thanks

uninstalling wont delete your save data its saved in the "Documents\My Games\FasterThanLight" directory,
though teh unintsall might ask if you want to delete it.
but as long as you dont mindlessly click every "yes" dialog window
you should be fne

or you could play it super safe and backup the save directory

note this is for windows os

Thanks!

It worked. I didn't realize there was a "save game" type file for this game.
