Hi guys, got a frustrating prob trying to save a game in A.C.M mode, it always dumps me back to the desktop whenever i try to either 'save' from the menu or go to the main page and try to 'save' from there. I have have no probs in freeflight mode even with my shuttles scattered everywhere, i can save at any time, but A.C.M mode, never!. I have been able to save at majoris after escorting the diplomat, but after that, specifically i get the H.S.D, rtb to my cruiser, unload, try to save and BANG, desktop again. I can't continue and my restore only has my majoris save point, any ideas?

regards tic

The usual response to this is to update your mouse driver. I will admit that doing this solved my problem of not being able to save at all but did not fix my "can't save in ACM" problem. I have found that using a slot other the first one for my commander will allow me to save with no problems in ACM. So my "New Commander" screen looks like this:

I'm checking this out now. I thought we fixed that problem WAY back before we went to 2.0. Has it creeped back in? The Rattler and Powercow fix of old was to use any slot other than slot 0 with saved games wink.gif

Yup, that's exactly what I'm experiencing. I still get the odd crash now and then but it's never due to saving unless I use slot 0.

This was fixed back in the v2.02 patch I believe. For those that are experiencing this problem, What version are ye running and patching from?

i.e. CD v2.0 US; v2.0-v2.08, v2.08-v2.09 patches.

This was fixed in either v2.02 or v2.03 patch. Though by habit I still do not use Slot 0 (the very first player profile), mostly by habit - some are hard to break biggrin.gif

I am running the same version as you are Tyrn and do not experience the same symptom(s) as ye does. Even when I purposesly use PLayer profile Slot 0.

The fix - dont use Slot 0 and check fer patches to ye OS (fer winblows users). For those using pther mices (logitech, etc...) update ye driver.

Good luck biggrin.gif
