Problem on PS4 "Unavailable, area not done loading"

After finally picking up Lost Imaginite Mines yesterday at Toys R Us, I went back to the PS4 version (haven't played since July) and when I try to load any of my three save files, a message appears saying something like:

"Unavailable

The area is not done loading. You will be returned to the main menu"

Then the game returns to the main menu. I've tried restarting the console, using a back up save, deleting and reinstalling the install data and update data (PS4 update data is 1.02 I think). Keep getting the same message.

Anyone ever get this? If I start a new save file on file 4, the game starts correctly.

Didn't have a problem on Switch, that loaded just fine and I was able to play with Ro-Bow and the Lost Imaginite Mines level.

I guess the game (not save files) was deleted from your PS4 before starting to play it again? When you put the PS4 disc, the game installs automatically. You can start the first level but you need to let the installation complete in the background before accessing other areas of the game.

You know, I had deleted the install data and updates to free up space a few weeks ago since I wasn't playing the game then. I will try restarting the game on file 4 for a bit, then retry the saves.

Thanks for the tip!

[EDIT]

Well I started the PS4 version yesterday, planning to replay on a new save so the game would load everything properly, but my old save files worked immediately.

Not sure exactly what did it, but like you suggested the game must have just needed a certain amount of time before loading all assets.
