Issues fixed

Corrupt save file

Exiting the game at certain moments can lead to a corrupt save game.[1]
Replace corrupt file with a new one[2]
  1. Do NOT create a new Autosave. Exit the game after seeing the message about the corrupt save file.
  2. Create a copy of the save game folder.
  3. Restart game, create a new Autosave and exit normally.
  4. Replace the new save folder file by file with your old save and start the game each time.
  5. When encountering the corrupt save message, remember the file, that got replaced before. It is the corrupt one.
  6. Create a new Autosave as prompted and exit the game normally.
  7. Replace all files in the new save game folder with your old save with the exception of the corrupt one.

Notes

Notes

  1. Games for Windows - LIVE DRM features: SSA activation, local profile support unknown.
  2. 2.0 2.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/44310/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (44310) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
