D_Smart posted:This is the first time that I am seeing or getting any such report. Can you please run CHKDSK on the drive? It could be that the games are being saved to a bad sector, one that's flagged as going bad or bad, but files are being moved to good sectors. Did chkdsk, no problems or bad sectors found (and I should hope not, all the parts of this computer are less than a year old). D_Smart posted:e. CTRL+SHIFT+G (Quick Save) is the same as COMMAND/SYSTEMS -> QUIT & SAVE WITH RESUME but doesn't quit the game. So is this the problem then? If I'm reading your support article correctly that should mean it doesn't save anything to disk, but it definitely does for me. A player*.sg9 file, titled "AUTOSAVE" under that character's profile in the Restore menu (including if I haven't made a "Quit and Save with Restore" with that character). In fact, I never use the Resume option from the main menu at all - I always use Restore. Basically, if I save with Ctrl+Shift+G, then quit the game with Alt+Q, go to Restore and select AUTOSAVE, it'll be at the correct point where I saved - even if I exit the whole program in the meantime. I just assumed that was how it was supposed to work.

I've been working on going through the video tutorials, but I wanted to mention to d_smart that most of the PDF links in the OP are 404ing.

Weird. 3000AD links are down. You can find them on the Steam page.

Mandibular Fiasco posted:I was on the CompuServe forums and on USENET back when this went down. The threads were epic, and Derek, to his credit, was right in the middle of it all. It was pretty wild watching the developer wade into everything that was going on. It was pretty unheard of to see or hear of a developer who was as visible as Derek was back then. The only other one who came close was Andy Hollis, when he was developing for Jane's Combat Simulation / Electronic Arts. Indeed. As I wrote in this Gaming Urban Legend blog, it's not like there was ever a choice of what I needed to do. What Take Two did affected me from my standpoint as a gamer, because they shipped and were selling a product they knew was still in Beta. Then made the mistake of trying to pin it on me by making up poo poo (e.g. I got angry, attacked a Coke machine, left the project etc). I can deal with all kinds of things, but when you make that sort of attack, all you end up doing is declaring war on the one person who never saw a conflict he didn't like. Which is precisely why, those who know me, knew what was coming back in July when those pricks over at RSI/CGI, pretty much did the same thing when they accused me of doing something that I didn't do. Unlike most from back in the day, I was never a part of the industry as I had never worked in it - for anyone. And to this day, I still haven't and don't intend to. So it was all very strange to me what was going on. So it was easy to make it personal. And that's precisely how what has been dubbed The Greatest Gaming Flamewar in history, came about. It was glorious.

The Interloper posted:Did chkdsk, no problems or bad sectors found (and I should hope not, all the parts of this computer are less than a year old). Quick Save (CTRL+SHIFT+G) just acts as a check-point. If you use it when you don't already have a full save (ALT+G), it can't be resumed or restored because the player profile is never saved; only the game state. Try the tests mentioned in the support article as it gives a better explanation. ps: I forgot to add that you can't save Instant Action scenarios. Only ROAM and ACM scenarios.

I am looking to do a minor patch release this month. I did some stuff over the holidays and have updated the changelog to reflect what's done thus far.

Comment comedy Gold quote:You had to alt tab out to pause the loving game when you just read out press the loving pause key no wonder DS thinks we're all retards ffs. How you can label the video "condescension" when you just proved his point is loving hilarious.
