Save/Load game bugs and errors

Post by spideysense »

Something I've noticed.

1) Have had issues when saving or loading where I attempt to save or load a game and occasionally I'll receive an error message that it can't read the folder or find it and then in the save game list after that, it lists as an error string. On exiting the game and re-starting it the save game list will show that savegame spot as empty now (this has happened about 4 times in two-three weeks since getting this game, seems to be random)

I got this problem once with Book I. I realised the problem was that one of the folders containing a saved game somehow got erased during a save (in the Eschalon Book 1 Saved Games-folder among the install files. "Slot 2" was missing i believe) I resolved the issue by simply creating a new folder named "slot 2" among the rest. All my saved files (except slot 2 of course) remained intact after this, but since slot 2 was the most recent save... :cry:

All the actual save slots are still there. Once I exit the game and re-enter I can save in the slot again, but I lose the save info or it becomes unreadable to the game. Not a big issue since I save often in different slots but annoying.

It keeps on doing this with my quicksave. It's driving me nuts. :/
