Max alloted save files?

I was wondering if there is a way to manually change the number of save files I am allowed to make in a single folder; I maxed out and have plenty of HD space for this :D

Do what we did on the old Sierra games.

Make a subfolder.
Move all but the latest save into that folder
OR if you aren't sure which is the latest:
Move all of the AGSsave files into another folder while the game is running. Then make a new save to start over with a fresh set.

Only issue is you'd have to move them back manually since QfG2VGA doesn't have the "Change Directory" option.

Sometimes I'd have 5-10 folders of saves for old Sierra games for if I hit a dead end or if I just wanted to go back and find all the different ways to do things, or ways to die.

How many save games could you have :| I finished the game with 33, and I was saving like crazy so I could go back to certain parts for screenshots etc.

It's a three digit extension: agssave.001 agssave.002....

But maybe it actually maxes out at 99? I haven't hit it. The only reason I started fresh was to make sure I posted the right save here.

I believe you can save up to 50 different savegames.

Well, technically, I think it's 49... but who's counting?
