How can you play for 4 hours without saving...??! unless of course you missed the windows 1.0 - windows 2000 era which drilled the ctrl + s (or equivalent) automatic hand movement (every 5 minutes) into the rest of us. hehe

Seriously though, I have a great deal of sympathy for your problem, as it happened to me a couple of times and I hope they can help you. Unfortunately, just to brace you for the worst, where I've seen this brought up on threads elsewhere it usually calls for a revert to earlier save.

Good luck!

A couple of time I *thought* I was stuck in trees, but looking at the map, I could see there was an opening. Maybe try moving around and look for an opening?

Maybe you can use the quick travel option (click on the overhead map).

That explains it... your a mac user and don't have the habit of saving all the time because you have software that doesn't crash! Well okay that's not strictly true, there is one Mac program which always mysteriously crashes - Microsoft Office! hahha Glad you found a solution though, the quick travel menu. Brilliant.

Don't forget the Quick-Travel option when this happens!
