Should old saves still work on the latest version?

Post by BlackMageJ »

Updated from the ARM Test version to the new release today. None of my old save games (from Secret of Monkey Island, Indy & Last Crusade and LOOM) would load.

Is this normal/expected, or should they still work?

I haven't really had this confirmed but I believe its because there was some incompatiblity that existing with the save. Its been fixed so that save are compatible between ports. I know I had lost some progress as well, when I upgraded but it was worth it to transfer my ScummVM PC saves to palm and continue. Also, if you run in to a bug on that port, you can transfer between PC, Palm and PS2 to see if its scumm problem or one specific to your port.
