Location of Saves?

DarkScythe · #1 05-11-2011, 12:07 AM

Backing up your AP saves is a good idea, but I don't think you can load them in OotM. It would be a new game starting from scratch. It will also progress slightly differently since for one, you have new goodies to play with, and secondly the games are randomly seeded each tme you begin a new game, so the shop that had X unit won't necessarily have it anymore. I'd imagine that was the same with KB:TL as well (haven't played that yet; I jumped straight to CW.)

A reinstall might at the very least give you a clean slate to start tinkering again, but I can't guarantee it would actually fix anything.

For the moment, if you're going to switch over to CW and since I still have it installed, I'll download the program I linked before (I assume it's the right one, since you haven't refuted it yet) and try it in one of my savegames. I'll get back to you on whether it works.

EDIT:

All right, I gave it a shot. Mixed results.
I'm not entirely sure what the optimal result of that free battle camera thing working are though, so maybe it's normal. I did not achieve full 360 degree rotation, but the camera restrictions were definitely relaxed substantially.
I could zoom forever, and the rotation increased to about 90 degrees in either direction.

In either case:
KBCW without program installed: Restrictive battle camera
KBCW with program ran after KBCW: "Unlocked" battle camera (but not 360 degrees)
KBCW with program run before KBCW: Same as above
KBCW with program run and change to game.ini: Same as above

It doesn't seem to matter where this program is placed, as it's external to the game and only hooks in via the .NET framework.

Hope that helps.

Well, I won't know what works 'till I try it. I don't really care that much about starting completely from scratch as a few things will be different - Orcs on the March and I think I'll try a different character (Mage). As far as all the different mods, I'll try them out and let you know how they work. Thanks *very much* for all the help and if I get stuck with some of the mods I'll let you know.

No problem; I occasionally check this forum for various reasons. If I see it, I'll lend a hand if I'm able.

Do note that if you now start playing OotM, you need to place mods in the /orcs folder because that's where CW/OotM reads its data files from.

Good luck!

I un- and re- installed Crossworlds. For some reason right at the end of the process it told me it 'might' not have installed correctly. I applied the patch though, and everything seems to be fine (fingers crossed). I'm playing OotM and so far so good with 3 mods installed that seem to be working. The extra 'view' (being able to zoom way out over the countryside is great and reminds me exactly of the mod I used with KBTL). The 360 BC still won't work and that is really puzzling. I even added that extra line in the game.ini file. Well, I guess I'll have to live w/o it. A shame though. It used to be cool to zoom way out (or in) over the battle and watch everything from any side. Well, thanks again for all your help (not to mention the time spent responding to all this). Take care.

I just started playing the game for the first time last week. It is a lot of fun so far. This morning, I clicked on the editor, to see what is was all about. I think I clicked on"Champion" or one of the 3 options and the program crashed.

Now, the game takes longer to load and I noticed that all my saves have disappeared: help!

Your saves are only visible for the campaign you have selected.

Your savegames arent related to the Editor, maybe you loaded a wrong campaign and couldnt see your save game. You should check your savegames in mydocument/kingbounty/

Maybe you download your editor on steam and it's not good (often cause crashes) I dont have any problem with the editor and can edit the game easily. You can download my version in here:

I was visiting Niagara Falls but didn't want to deal with the crowds at the physical casino. I searched online and found https://spinmacho.ca listed in a review. I played blackjack from my hotel room with a view of the falls. I had a bad run of cards, then doubled down on an 11 and won huge. Much better than the noisy floor downstairs.
