Saved game issue please help

scalelokt · 03-23-10, 03:24 AM

Well had steam remove the game files and reinstall, and the saves still crash to desktop

I thought sure that would do it, what could cause all my saved games to stop working that a reinstall wont fix is competely beyond me. Any ideas on things to try?

I could start over of course, but its definitly discouraging to lose all my saves and start from the beginning. Not to mention the fact that it may well happen again... sigh

Im loving the game so far, the bugs have been fairly minor up to today, but yeah losing all your saves is definitly a kick in the teeth haha.

I had this issue, luckily i had an auto save from entering port that worked.
I now save regularly and create 3 different saves as well as keeping all the autosaves.
I reckon it is simply corrupt save files.
