Gothic 2 Save files cannot be loaded But NOT corrupted! Please help!
Dear Community!
After 4 years I tried to play again Gothic II. It was one of my favs long time ago. Since I had my saved games at an external storage I tried to get them back when I've installed again the game. I know there could be "corrupting save game methods" but in my case the situation is the following:
In 2017 I've played the game in Windows 10, i did not use any modification addons, patches, nothing. I've just used the followings: Modified the launcher as starts as XP Service pack 3, without full screen, and with 2.7 (i guess it was the same GOG version that I 've installed now) and it worked. Now when i reinstalled I got a 27" display which i guess doesn't matter at all, I got a new PC, but the same Win 10 Edu version. First thing I tried: install the game, play with the same compatibility mode like xp sp 3 etc etc. The game loads, I can enter a new game, but when I added the save files into their folder and they appeared in "Load game slots" they are not loaded I got back to desktop with access violation error. So if I corrupt a save game like game quits when I save or something like that that makes 1 corrupt slot not all. I tried everything which added on your website.... Using kitpack patches everything, then I tried Spine with Union also. Made the diference in display but still cannot load the saved games. Do you have any ideas how could i import well my saved games back from 2017?
PS.: Unfortunately I do not speak Deutch, I saw most of the topics are Deutch since I guess its a Deutch forum.
Thanks in advance!
