Jennaida Posted April 13, 2005 Posted April 13, 2005 Does it mean anything when a KSE modified game seems to be saving several extra files, and not loading until they're deleted?
RevanA4 Posted April 13, 2005 Posted April 13, 2005 eerrrrr I haven't noticed that and I use it alot so it probably doesn't mean any thing

PisOgPapir Posted April 13, 2005 Posted April 13, 2005 KSE can't see more than 99 save games. that sucks -_-

tk102 Posted April 13, 2005 Author Posted April 13, 2005 KSE doesn't have any limits on the number of savegames.
apocolipse Posted April 13, 2005 Posted April 13, 2005 Quote Are you sure you have the latest version. I have 137 saves and it shows them all OMG how can you have so many saves the most ive had is about 23. well done tk, being able to see icons gives the kse a nice touch dont know how the hell you manage to keep making all these updates though
Jennaida Posted April 13, 2005 Posted April 13, 2005 Okay. One of my 'normal' savegames frombefore has the following files: [*]GLOBALVARS.RES [*]PARTYTABLE.RES [*]SAVEGAME.sav [*]savenfo.res [*]screen <image> [/list=1] The one edited with KSE now has the following files: [*]globalvars.res (same as above) [*]partytable.res (same as above) [*]SAVE_DATA.sig [*]SAVE_HEADERVAR.sig [*]SAVE_INFO.sig [*]SAVE_PARTY.sig [*]SAVE_VARS.sig [*]savegame.sav (same as above) [*]savenfo.res (same as above) [*]screen <image> (same as above) [*]Screen.sig [/list=1] Unless the .sig files are deleted from the savegame, it will stop midway through load. If they're deleted, it'll load just fine, if they're not, it dies.

tk102 Posted April 13, 2005 Author Posted April 13, 2005 The .sig files are generated for Xbox users, but as jedigoku says, they are ignored by the PC version. See if there is a different pattern of behavior not associated with the .sig files: Maybe your game crashes once and then works the next time. ?
RevanA4 Posted April 13, 2005 Posted April 13, 2005 you might have a curupeted install also that might becausing the crash unless you are useing a emulator so if you can't fix it your best bet is to uninstall and reinstall the program
Jennaida Posted April 13, 2005 Posted April 13, 2005 Well, all I know is that when I delete the .sig files, it works. You think KSE might be corrupted? tk102: I have tried loading them, multiple times. And they freeze at the same spot, every time. Until I delete the .sig files.
RevanA4 Posted April 14, 2005 Posted April 14, 2005 it aint KSE cuz the files you are talking about aren't even used by the pc meaning they are ignored or put a different way the game doesn't know that they are there
Jennaida Posted April 14, 2005 Posted April 14, 2005 They ONLY show up after using KSE, jedigoku. Not from regular saves, or from anything else. And deleting them is the only way I've found that fixes the problem. And they are only put there by KSE. This has not happened before 3.3.1, either. If it's not KSE, tell me... why does it ONLY happen after I mod a save/quicksave with KSE, and try loading it? Or is it simply because I'm doing it with the game running, so I can reload the quicksave when I'm done editing? And it only seems to happen after I've opened it and re-saved it with KSE multiple times, as well. Situationally, I often add something in KSE at various points... That's led me to wonder how much a savegame is changed, everytime KSE saves an alteration.
RevanA4 Posted April 14, 2005 Posted April 14, 2005 for the record quick saves aren't the same as normal saves hense the name quick try it on a normal save and that should fix your problem and I've said it before I use it often and don't have a problem try downloading it again cuz your download might have got currupted and see if that works cuz out of 23 saved games I've had no problems or your installation might be messed up orther wise without being there i can't diagnose the problem any better I'm a programmer and if TK says KSE isn't the problem I tend to believe him
Jennaida Posted April 14, 2005 Posted April 14, 2005 Quote Originally posted by jedigoku I'm a programmer and if TK says KSE isn't the problem I tend to believe him Ah yes. And I'm just an ignorant end-user. *shrug* I'll re-download it. The only mods I'm running now that I haven't before are the whereamI armband and handmaiden for female PC. Otherwise, it's all the same ones.
tk102 Posted April 14, 2005 Author Posted April 14, 2005 Quote Originally posted by Jennaida Or is it simply because I'm doing it with the game running, so I can reload the quicksave when I'm done editing? This is very likely the cause. I recommend completely exiting the game before attempting to edit a save, and conversely, exiting KSE before loading the game.
RevanA4 Posted April 14, 2005 Posted April 14, 2005 note never edit game files while the game is running it tends to screw everything up
Jennaida Posted April 14, 2005 Posted April 14, 2005 I've been editing it while game was running for several versions of KSE, just that this was the first version to do what this is doing I'll just keep deleting the .sig files
XTra KrazzY Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 i edit my save during game and it didn't happen to me even once :S is it the patch or something?(if it's out)
tk102 Posted April 16, 2005 Author Posted April 16, 2005 v3.3.2 released - Fixed a very long standing bug that prevented some Global Numerics from displaying - Made Quests node start in collapsed position - .sig file creation is now dependent on the pre-existence of a .sig file in the savegame folder (for Jennaida) (I believe the problem you are having Jennaida is associated with Quicksaves only...)
Jennaida Posted April 16, 2005 Posted April 16, 2005 I'll keep testing it. Thanks for the fix on the .sig files
tk102 Posted April 16, 2005 Author Posted April 16, 2005 Oops, my .sig fix didn't take so I just reuploaded KSE v3.3.2 with the fix. Sorry about that.
