Easygoing Eyebeast Trenton. Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 I downloaded Geneforge 4, and when I clicked save after a while, the game just screwed up. Anything I can do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Is this the control-S save or the Quicksave? Also which version since I haven't seen this bug on the Mac version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Trenton. Posted November 5, 2012 Author Share Posted November 5, 2012 WIndows. I save it manually, no quicksaves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast keira Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 the game just screwed up. Anything I can do? You could provide more details about the game screwing up. Did it throw an error message (if so, what did it say?)? Did it crash to desktop? Other sort of crash? Was this a one-time bug, or does it happen every time you save? Did the save still 'work' even though it got wonky? Were you able to load the save, or did it not even appear in the load screen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Trenton. Posted November 5, 2012 Author Share Posted November 5, 2012 It wouldn't save and it quit to the desktop. And no, every time. It did infact, not work. It did not appear in the load games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ineffable Wingbolt Mosquito---Slayer Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Same thing happened to me in G3 but reinstalling fixed that, have you tried that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Trenton. Posted November 5, 2012 Author Share Posted November 5, 2012 I'll try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Trenton. Posted November 5, 2012 Author Share Posted November 5, 2012 Alright. I uninstalled and reinstalled and the game still crashes when I save. The same, "Geneforge 4 Rebellion has encountered a problem." message popped on again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Little Fyora Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 It may be that the game doesn't have adequate privileges to write/update save files. Where have you installed the game ? If you had installed it in your Program Files, and your Windows is anything beyond XP, you could try installing the game in a non-protected location like C:\Genes or D:\Genes. Edit : Oops, just remembered that the save files go to the docs folder. So this won't work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
