Hi.
Excellent job- i've played the previous versio of the remake- it was great, ad this one promises to be fabulous.
I have but one question, though.
How come i don't have save files? I seem to save a game but when i try to restore it- there appear to be no games saved.
I would appreciate any help. Thank you.
Regards,
NO

Do you use Windows Vista? If so, I think the answer it's already in the FAQ.

Hmm, nope, i use xp. I can't find the answer in either faqs or the manuals orthe read-me, unless i mised something. ?
There is no save folder in the game folder (i'm not sure was there ever was one for this game, been a while since i played the previous version).
Thanks.
PS: I guess this belongs to the technical forums.Sorry for misposting.

No, unfortunately these don't appear to solve it. I identified the problem-save file was moved to a different location. For some reason it moved to "my documents". Now, I had made a couple of saves. There was only one wrtten on hard drive and as far as I checked there are no other saves anywhere else-not in the C:\users, C:'documents and settings\application data. Morevoer,after i moved the save file I encountered to the proper location in the game folder, the game still wouldn't read the file. The save file itself could be run, though. It launched as a separate application... But since no other files were encountered i can;t seem to save any other files. Nor can i overwrite the existing file. I'm rather stumped.
It's windows xp service pack 3 that i'm running- does this fact make any difference?
