Savegame path UIQ3 P990i

Post by reverend_ray »

Hi there.
I'm currently playing Monkey Island 2 on my P990i, it works fine so far! At the moment, I'm at the buggy part on Booty Island, where the game crashes when I look down the coast to get the card piece of Gouvernour Marley.
Now I want to do the trick suggestet in this forum: copy the savegames to pc, play after the part which makes the game crash, copy back to phone, play on.
The problem: I don't know where I find the default save path of ScummVM in my phone! I've already searched the phone and stick memory after *.s01 saves, browsed the whole directory's with my pc... nothing.
I can't eather change the save path: if I do this, the game doesn't find my saved games anymore (because they are not in the stated directory).
Can anybody tell my where to find the default save path?
Best regards

Should be C:\shared\Scummvm Use the Sony Ericsson Filemanager or other similar to access those files.

I can access these folders through ScummVM file browser, i.e. when I choose "add game" in main menu.
There are displayed the "shared"-folder you mentioned and many others. Also, 3 drives are displayed: c: d: and z:
I know what c: and d: is (phone memory and memory card). But what is z:? It's named RomDrive!
The problem is: I can't access these folders whether through my Sony Ericsson PC Suite, neither with the phone itself, because they are not shown in the file manager(s)! I think it's some kind of protection for system files, like in Windows!
How can I enable these files to be shown?

By the way: Great work ScummVM team for this lovely program!
Thank you very much!!

works fine on my phone, thanks!
But is there no prog for my pc which allows me access to these files? Would be a bit easier...
Does anybody know, what "z: (RomDrive)" displayed by ScummVM is?

Z: drive is the drive which contains most of the Symbian libaries and systemdrive, the phones flash/rom drive.

And the decision not to expose the whole C: to the user from the PC is made by Sony Ericsson. So currently possible.
