Feeble Files: Unable to load a game

Post by gliss »

Hi, I have a problem with The Feeble Files: I can save the game whenever I want but when I close it afterwards and then try to load it again, the game starts at the beginning (even with the intro videos)! What can I do?

That's strange. I haven't seen anything like that. But if you think you've found a bug, it's better to use the bug tracker for it. If you do, don't forget to provide more information: which version of ScummVM you're using, which operating system, etc. And maybe attach the offending save game, as well.

So saving normally just works? That's odd.

Probably not. Neither I nor Kirben (who did most of the work on getting The Feeble Files supported by ScummVM) can reproduce it, so until we get a useful bug report in the aforementioned bug tracker, there's little we can do.

We don't even know which operating system, which version of game, or which version of ScummVM this is.

I have this problem also! I see a list of my save files no problem but none of them will load. It only goes right to the beginning with the intro scene.. :(

This is the 2 CD English version of Feeble Files
Using version 0.10.0SVN of ScummVM. On Windows XP Media Center SP2.

It seems like there is a path name problem I would guess?

I've submitted report, hopefully with enough information:

For older releases, can change the saved game directory, to avoid the issue.

The problem will only occur if the current directory (of ScummVM) or extra directory or data files directory, is the same as the saved game directory.
