Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 It depends upon whether you have a Mac where the save files save0 to save19 are found in the Avernum 4 Files folder or Windows where I think the files are saved in My Document (I don't have Windows, but that's how other games were done). Take a few minutes and look for the save0 to save19 files names and check the creation/last editted dates to find the ones for Avernum 4. These are the only files you need to copy.

Tenderfoot Thahd Zlybobek Posted July 21, 2007 Author Share Posted July 21, 2007 Not so easy, this files can be found in Game Folder and i copied them, but i can load saves:) and game dont show them, Save slots all shows "empty" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 As Randomizer said, but in slightly more detail at the end: on a Mac: In the "Avernum 4 Files" folder in the "Avernum 4" folder there are folders called "Save0" and so on. Copy all 20 of them, Save0 through Save19, and replace the folders on the laptop that doesn't have the saved games you want with those save folders. They need to go back in "Avernum 4 Files" of course. —Alorael, who is sure the process is very similar on Windows. He's also pretty sure he can't give any more detailed help than that.

Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Windows probably puts saves in some other folder, then. Check "My Documents" for any Avernum 4 folders, and then look through any likely repositories. —Alorael, who thinks it's about time for a Windows user to step in. And that's really not something he relishes saying, nor is it something he even thinks very often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 It would be easier to scrap the laptops and buy new Macs. It will solve your problem and you won't have to wait as long to play Avernum 5. Use the Windows search function to look for save0 file names. Then figure out which one goes with Avernum 4.

Articulate Vlish kenny2011 Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 You people are crazy, well, as in people I mean the dude that can't figre it out. The saves for windows are in the avernum4 folder, then in the DATA folder, they should be at the top. Copy/Paste into floppy or cd drive and hit copy.

Articulate Vlish kenny2011 Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Well, I don't know what your problem is, I bought a new computer and just copied the avernum folder to a cd, and pasted into program files in new comp, worked fine, didn't even have to change my prefs.

Magnificent Ornk Ephesos Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Whoah, whoah, whoah... everybody calm down for a second. Yelling isn't going to fix the problem. Sadly, I can't help, because I'm a mac user. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Xaiya Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 I think it has to do with the fact that each has a different version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fledgling Fyora Jesany Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 If you have Win98/ME, the save games are located in c:\windows\application data\avernum 4 saved games If you have WinXP, they are located in c:\documents and settings\<user name>\application data\avernum 4 saved games (where <user name> is your WinXP user name) They are very large for saved games (over 14MB), so I wish you could change their location, but I don't think you can.
