Savegame request

[Olimpian]

Does anybody have a save from just after the first battle of Chapter 1 of RtI? I get a freeze after I click the "Exit" button at the end of the the battle, on the loading screen. Gave it a good half-hour but nothing...

Sorry, deleted all "unnecessary" saves after my hard drive got a bit filled up with those huge savefiles.

I might have. What year and season do you need?

Doesn't really matter. I just wanna play the RtI campaign, but I can't get past the first battle. So any save close to the beginning is just fine.

I take it you mean after the battle that starts automatically after the first cut scene?

Try that one, it's right at the start of chapter two.

Olimpian,

Can you please pm if you ever get this resolved? I had the same issue. I played that first battle like a dozen times. I eventually started a normal campaign. But i do feel like i missed out on a big part of ETW.

Thank you very much... it works !!

So what did I miss between that first battle and this save?

[johnhughthom]

Not a lot, you build a few things then seige and take a village with a funny name, if you have played any Total War games before you won't have missed anything important. Click the objectives tab in the bottom right for what to do next, I think you need to get access rights from one of the native tribes.

One last thing. I noticed the save games you posted were missing an "e" in their names: British_Colonials_1.empir_save instead of British_Colonials_1.empire_save. I added the "e" so they showed up ingame, I'm just curious why this happened

No idea, I just uploaded to filefront and copied the link. The main thing is you got playing.

Sorry to hijack the thread, but where exactly in the game files can you find the saves? Pre-emptive "thanks".

[Olimpian]

Vista: C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\The Creative Assembly\Empire\save_games
XP: C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\The Creative Assembly\Empire\save_games

AppData and Application Data folders are hidden.

Excellent, many thanks.

Yes, the pirated version tends to freeze. So I have heard. Thats why you should buy the game. I actually like Steam, nowadays.
