Hi everyone

I'm loving this game :-) I just discovered that lots of bugs are solved by Co8 Patch and I'm planning to install it.

Before applying it I want to backup my savegames, but I can't find them.

I expected those to be under modules/ directory. But there's nothing there, only my created players. Where can I find those files?

Using: Windows7 and plain version from GOG.com

Thanks everyone!

If you installed in C:\Program files (default) then you should look under My Documents
Thanks for the info

But exactly, which file I should look for?

I checked MyDocuments directory for the save files of ToEE before. But I cannot find them!

Sorry for bothering but this is driving me nuts.

Salut!

If you installed the game into Program Files then the saves may be in the virtual store, which is usually located in C:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\<AppName>.

You likely need to enable 'show hidden files'.

For older games it's a good idea to install them into a folder outside of Program Files, eg C:\games to avoid these problems.
Nice!

The files are just where you said!

Thanks!

I do not believe you will be able to use your old save games after installing the Co8 mod. I tried doing that and was unsuccessful, though that may be due to me rather than the mod :)

It's worth starting from scratch anyway since you have a much better understanding of how to build your characters and party now. Plus, it's not fair to do the low level mod content as a high level character!

Totally true, I cannot reuse the saved files. Instead I started a new game.

Thanks for the heads up, I was just going to try this, cheers. :)

Just a query, I have created my own characters, will they still be available in the roster, if I start a new game with the Co8 mod?

Thanks again :)

I have got my saves where I installed the game:

D:\GOG.com\Temple of Elemental Evil\modules\ToEE\Save
