I have exactly the same problem. I did some templates before 1.31, now i cant. The log it's empty. If i use "add a new template" i can save the template, but no use because it has no option to edit. If i edit an exisitng template, i get the same message.

I did my signs in 1.30 and when you click "save" it saves both board and template. In 1.31 when you hit "save" that message pop-up and saves nothing, you loose even the modification you have done to the board itself.
Game log don't show any error, like everything it's fine. I hope they fix this.

You may not see an error, but we cannot identify the problem without a game log.
From either one of you from a session where this error occurs. Otherwise we are just speculating in the dark.

Hello, I am a beginner. I tried to translate the text of the signage into the local language. I successfully found some dds files for the signage. By modifying the dds file, I succeeded.
But after updating some of the map DLC, I didn't find DDS files for these signs. I'm confused.
Thank you!

I have posted my gamelog here
Clean game log file, opened the editor, added a sign, edit template, edit board, save ...the rest it's described above. Closed the editor.
The opened map contain just my working sectors, but i have the same error with europe edit.

That's odd... Normally it would've dumped an error (like i.e. it can't mount a certain directory or it can't find the path).
I do see that it's running from Program Files. Do you have writing permissions there? Maybe it helps to run the game in administrator mode.

I'm running the game in administrator mode, the permissions are all fine, the game it's bought on Steam and the odd thing it's i can do sign templates in 1.30 version using the same file structure .
My problem was solved for now, but i hope this is not going to be a problem in future updates. Upgrading and downgrading it's not a fun thing. Thank you anyway.
