Enable newly-bought DLC in old save

I was playing a older save with some DLCs bought. Now I bought all the DLCs, and how could I (if it could) enable the newly bought DLCs in the older save? I enabled all DLCs in the game now. I wanna continue the save with the new contents from the DLCs
also could we use old save in the 12.0 beta?

Please be informed that save game files from old versions are not compatible with the new post-release beta version.

Thanks for the information. But could I upgrade the save game in the same version before buying other DLCs to enable other DLCs and playing in the same game version?

Please be informed that enabling the DLCs will not change the game version, so it won't lead to save game compatibility issues. As long as you are already playing version 11.x, you will be able to use all the DLCs as the latest Service Industry DLC requires version 11.

Yes, but even I enable all the remaining DLCs, the old save in the same game version did not load the DLCs content. I know the new DLCs bought is loaded because all new games correctly loaded all DLCs contents, except that game save. I did not change the game version though.

Please be informed that once a game has been started, no new additional DLCs can be enabled in that game. I recommend that we start a new game and enable the DLCs.
