[SOLVED] Games not saving

Post by CJ781 »

Greetings, I'm having trouble getting new games/sessions to save. Twice now I've come back and the newly saved games/sessions are gone. Fortunately, I've only had an hour invested in them, but it is still rather frustrating. My main game/session is always still there, saved in the 3rd slot and seems to never have a problem saving. Games lost have been on Goldcrest(original), and East Coast Hills DL'd from the modhub. East Coast has other issues as well, but I digress for the moment on those issues. Thoughts? Ideas? Comments?

I see you are using the Steam version. I do not have the problem myself, but I read that for most people, "Steam Cloud Synchronization" seems to be the root of the problem with savegames not being saved properly. Give disabling this feature a try.

Typical support related question:

support@giants-software.com

(Yes, Cloud synchronization could be the problem in this case and hopefully was, as OP didn't respond)
