Where are the savegames?

[dgrafix]

I want to move my savegames onto my new PC but cannot find them anywhere. (Its windows XP and i have tried searching rhe whole disk +hidden and all i can find is the program folder.

trying opening a command-line prompt and typing

cd %appdata%
dir

If you see a directory called "Basilisk Games", you win

If you don't, I'm sure someone more knowledgeable than I will come along before too long and fill you in.

Why can people use the app name for this stuff!!! (i was searching for eschalon)

Also, on the main menu screen, try clicking on the version/copyright/language line at the bottom.

Oh, Ssalaxx, I remember noting that feature when I saw it and thinking how handy it would be... but then forgot it the one time I needed it! (to answer this thread). <sigh>

Also, sorry dgrafix that you haven't adapted to "company name/app name" yet, but it IS semi-standard, so I hope it doesn't plague you forever the purpose of this semi-standard would perhaps be more obvious if you had both Book I and Book II installed on the same machine. (Or, indeed, the opposite, if you had another piece of software named Eschalon that served a different purpose, and needed a place to put its files. Not that I know of such a piece of software at the moment, but, stranger things have happened)
